KitchenAid Slotted Turner Porcelain White
This slotted turner from KitchenAid combines the functionality needed for everyday cooking with materials that protect your cookware. The 34cm length provides comfortable reach whilst keeping hands at a safe distance from heat, whilst the oversized nylon head offers a stable platform for flipping foods whilst allowing excess grease and liquid to drain away through strategically placed slots.
The slotted head design - featuring perforations across the surface - makes this turner particularly useful for fried foods where you want to leave grease behind, foods that release liquid during cooking, or any situation where draining excess moisture results in better texture. Bacon, hash browns, fried eggs, burgers, breaded items, and fish fillets all benefit from the drainage capability. The 8.5cm width provides sufficient surface area to support foods securely during flipping whilst the slots allow liquids to escape.
Nylon construction offers specific advantages for kitchen use. The material withstands temperatures up to 232°C, covering most stovetop cooking tasks, whilst remaining soft enough not to scratch non-stick coatings. This makes the turner safe for use with Teflon, ceramic, and other non-stick surfaces where metal utensils would cause damage. The porcelain white colour offers a clean, classic appearance that complements most kitchen aesthetics, though it may show stains more readily than darker colours.
The ergonomic ABS handle features a debossed KitchenAid logo and provides comfortable grip during use. The handle's balance and shape reduce hand fatigue during extended cooking sessions, whilst the integrated hanging loop allows for convenient storage on utensil racks or hooks. At 115g, the turner offers good weight for controlled movement whilst remaining light enough for comfortable extended use.
Key features include:
- Oversized slotted head: 8.5cm wide nylon surface with drainage slots for removing excess grease and liquid
- Heat resistance: Nylon head withstands temperatures up to 232°C (450°F)
- Non-stick safe: Soft nylon won't scratch or damage non-stick coatings
- 34cm total length: Comfortable reach with safe distance from heat sources
- Ergonomic handle: Porcelain white ABS construction with debossed logo and comfortable grip
- Hanging loop: Integrated loop for convenient storage on racks or hooks

- Lifetime guarantee: KitchenAid backs this turner with lifetime coverage against manufacturing defects
Particularly useful for cooking bacon, hash browns, fried eggs, burgers, breaded chicken, fish fillets, fritters, and similar foods where draining fat or liquid improves the final result. The slots allow grease to drain back into the pan or away from the food, reducing fat content and preventing soggy textures. Also effective for lifting foods from poaching or braising liquids whilst leaving the cooking liquid behind.
What Customers Ask About the KitchenAid Slotted Turner
Is this safe for non-stick pans?
Yes, the nylon head is specifically designed to be safe for all non-stick cookware. Nylon is softer than metal and won't scratch or damage non-stick coatings, making this turner suitable for use with Teflon, ceramic, and other non-stick surfaces.
What's the difference between a slotted turner and a solid turner?
A slotted turner has perforations that allow liquids and grease to drain away whilst you flip or serve foods. This makes it ideal for fried foods, bacon, hash browns, or any cooking where you want to leave excess oil or liquid behind. Solid turners are better for serving foods with sauces or for delicate items that might break through slots.
What temperature can this withstand?
The nylon head is heat resistant up to 232°C (450°F). This covers most everyday cooking tasks including frying, sautéing, and griddling. Avoid leaving the turner resting in extremely hot pans for extended periods, and don't use it with temperatures exceeding 232°C.
Can I put this in the dishwasher?
Yes, this turner is dishwasher safe. Place it on the top rack for best results. The nylon head and ABS handle are designed to withstand regular dishwasher cycles without warping or degrading. The slots make cleaning easier as debris doesn't accumulate as readily.
Will this melt if left in a hot pan?
The nylon is heat resistant to 232°C, which covers most cooking temperatures. However, avoid leaving the turner resting against the side of very hot pans for extended periods, especially if the pan exceeds the heat resistance threshold. Use the hanging loop to store the turner when not actively in use.
What foods work best with a slotted turner?
Slotted turners excel with fried foods like bacon, hash browns, fried eggs, burgers, breaded items, fish fillets, and anything cooked in oil or that releases liquid during cooking. The slots allow grease and excess moisture to drain away, preventing soggy food and reducing fat content in your serving.
Does the white colour stain easily?
White utensils show stains more readily than darker colours. The nylon head may absorb colours from highly pigmented foods like turmeric, tomato-based sauces, or curry over time with repeated use. Regular washing immediately after use helps minimise staining. Some discolouration is normal and doesn't affect performance.
What does the lifetime guarantee cover?
KitchenAid provides a lifetime guarantee covering manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship. This reflects the quality of construction and materials. The guarantee does not cover normal wear and tear, damage from misuse, or using the turner beyond its heat resistance limits.

Care & Use Instructions
Before first use: Wash the turner in warm soapy water or run through the dishwasher to remove any manufacturing residue. Dry thoroughly before storing.
During cooking: Use the turner for flipping, turning, and draining foods. The nylon head slides easily under foods without scratching non-stick surfaces. The slots allow grease and liquid to drain back into the pan or away from the food as you lift. Avoid leaving the turner resting against the sides of very hot pans - either hold it whilst cooking or rest it on a spoon rest.
Temperature limits: The nylon is heat resistant to 232°C (450°F). This covers frying, sautéing, griddling, and most stovetop tasks. Do not use the turner in ovens, under grills, or with temperatures exceeding 232°C. Avoid direct contact with open flames.
Dishwasher cleaning: Place the turner on the top rack of your dishwasher. Use standard dishwasher tablets and normal wash cycles. The nylon and ABS materials withstand regular dishwasher use without warping or degrading. The slots make cleaning easier as food particles are less likely to accumulate compared to solid turners.
Hand washing: Wash in warm soapy water with a soft cloth or sponge. Pay attention to the slots where small food particles may lodge. A brush can help clean the slots thoroughly if needed. Rinse thoroughly and dry. Avoid abrasive scrubbers or scouring pads which may scratch the surface, though this won't affect functionality.
Removing stains: White nylon shows stains more readily than darker colours. For stubborn stains, soak the turner head in a solution of warm water and baking soda for 30 minutes, then wash normally. Alternatively, try a paste of baking soda and water applied directly to stained areas. Some discolouration over time is normal and doesn't affect performance.
Preventing stains: Wash the turner immediately after use with highly pigmented foods like turmeric, curry, tomato sauce, or beetroot. The longer these foods remain in contact with the nylon, the more likely staining will occur.
Storage: Use the integrated hanging loop to store the turner on utensil racks, hooks, or bars. This keeps it accessible whilst saving drawer space. The slots allow air circulation, helping the turner dry completely after washing. Alternatively, store in a utensil crock or drawer organiser.
What to avoid: Don't use the turner as a prying tool or to scrape burnt-on food from pans - this may damage the edge or slots. Don't cut food whilst it's supported on the turner. Avoid prolonged exposure to extreme heat beyond the 232°C limit.
