BambooMN Matcha Whisk Set Chashaku Reviews Summary

Whisk Quality

Pros:

• "This whisk works wonderfully to mix your matcha."
• "Works great for preparing Matcha tea, easy to clean with hot water."
• "The whisk is perfect with my little bowl and the scoop is perfect to dig out the Matcha."
• "This set makes for fantastic matcha. It's nearly impossible to get it smooth and frothy without a nice whisk like this."
• "The BEST Chasen set. I use this set daily in preparing my Matcha tea and could not imagine using anything else."
• "Great matcha whisk! Only thing is I wonder if mold will grow on it in future?"
• "The whisk works great for making a nice cup of matcha. Cleans and stores pretty easily as well, the container to keep it in is perfectly sized."

Cons:

• "After the first use, the middle section came apart."
• "The whisk is very delicate. The fibers come out a little too."
• "The whisk loses shape pretty quickly but is still curved enough to do its job."
• "The whisk is flimsier than I thought it would be."
• "Had the product for about 3 months and the bristles have started breaking off when mixing tea."
• "The whisk was very flimsy, and straightened out when it got wet."
• "The bristles of the whisk were 'disintegrating'."

Set Components

Pros:

• "An amazing buy! I use the whisk and the spoon every single day in the morning cup of matcha!"
• "I really love this set. I use the spoon every day for all my beverage stirring (coffee and tea)."
• "The chashaku and chasen are of very nice quality and work very well."
• "Handy bamboo tools. I love the whisk it also works well to froth up warm milk if you want to make a latte type drink."
• "I'm very satisfied the way the whisk blends the Macha tea."
• "The chashaku is strong and when used to scoop the Matcha has very little powder sticking to it afterwards."
• "Love these little chashaku and tea whisk. Perfect for scooping tea out of container and the whisk mixes the tea very well."

Cons:

• "I think the teaspoon is unnecessary - at least for my uses."
• "The whisk is only usable in smaller cups. If your mug is larger you cannot get to the bottom to blend the tea."
• "The packaging could have been better, as I nearly threw out the chashaku because it was in the paper, indistinguishable from just the 'filler' in the box."
• "I don't find the spoon useful."
• "i got the whisk and scoop but i was not sent the spoon with my product and after one use the whisk broke."
• "The small scooper was split upon arrival. The actual matcha whisk split in the center after only two weeks of use."
• "The curved Bamboo stirrer stayed curved for about a week. Then it straightened out and became a straight bamboo stick."

Value and Durability

Pros:

• "This is hard to beat for the price/quality."
• "Was well worth the price!"
• "For the price, I think this set is great."
• "I am glad that I ordered this from Amazon. It was the best price that I found. It's well made and looks nice just sitting on my counter."
• "I've been using it daily for the last couple of months with no issues."
• "A lot of reviews I read mentioned the low quality and coming apart after just a few uses. I use this everyday with my matcha tea and the product is holding up well."
• "Great set, would buy again, extremely satisfied!"

Cons:

• "Just what I expected. I don't think the whisk will last a long time."
• "The item became moldy after one use. There should have been instructions if this were to occur."
• "Came out of box with splits and cracks in the bamboo."
• "The quality is going downhill fast."
• "The whisk is a bit hard to clean - matcha sticks to it if you let it dry in the air while you drink the matcha :)"
• "The whisk broke only after a couple of uses. I can't even use it anymore, because pieces of bamboo break off in my matcha each time."
• "The tines started coming off of the wisk within weeks."

Design and Aesthetics

Pros:

• "The whisk comes in a HARD plastic container to keep it protected."
• "The whisk comes in a presentable container and appears to be in the same container as the previous whisk I purchased elsewhere for almost $10 w/o a chashaku!"
• "The whisk is a small work of art, and I leave it sitting on display beside my ornamental iron teapot."
• "I love that it even comes with its only hard carrying case."
• "This AUTHENTIC bamboo tea whisk and scoop is perfect and flawless, and was actually better than expected."
• "Both the whisk and the spoon are nicely made, smooth and free of splinters."
• "Both pieces are very beautifully made."

Cons:

• "It’s unacceptable to me that there is no quality control or final inspection of the contents before the package ships out."
• "I was highly disappointed with this product."
• "I tried to close the lid by pressing it in the middle and it cracked."
• "The whisk's plastic container was broken on arrival, but it did not affect the whisk."
• "The packaging comes in those yellow paper package with air bubbles, and it crack the plastic container."
• "After first using it, the whisp expands bigger and doesn't fit into the container it came with."
• "I received the package today. It’s not a set. There’s only a whisk in the box. No scoop and other spoons as described on the site, nor the description on the box itself. Very disappointed."
