Is the scoop itself solid stainless. Last scoop I bought had a coating on the outside of the scoop-only the handle turned out to be stainless.

As far as I know it is Stainless as advertised, I have yet to run complex chemical and spectrometry on the scoop ..

I suppose it is since I wash it in the dishwasher and it comes out perfectly clean without stains and does not oxidize.

The scoop itself is quite solid and heavy. You definitely know it is all metal when you hold it.

The ad itself says "Solid Stainless Steel Ice Cream Scoop", which, by LAW, Must be a "Solid Stainless Steel Ice Cream Scoop". So, yes.

As far as I know its stainless, I've never had any "coating" come off on mine.

It appears to be solid, it's a brushed finish and has some heft to it. I'm satisfied with it's design and use.

I'm not sure. We have not used ours yet because it is slightly small for our pan. It does appear to be stainless but we bought another brand.

Yes it does. It holds up very well to the bigger batches, too! I really like the quality of this scoop.

I bought this scoop, and it is great.. I don't know if it is unique to other aluminum scoops.. I use it for charcoal briquets, and it scoops easily and holds them well when I transfer from bag to grill. It is nice looking if that is what you are looking for.

No, there's no coating. It's very shiny stainless on the spatula end but the handle has more of a buffed surface. Now just to let you know that this turner is on the small side but it is not a toy as someone suggested! I use it all the time with my smaller fry pans but works for larger things too. This was one of my better purchases because there is nothing to break, burn or destroy in any way. It's heavy duty and all one piece construction. There is no downside to this product. But, yes food does get on it and must be cleaned off. That is just common sense. It does not have an ergonomic handle but you really don't need it for an item like this unless you have arthritis or something like that. No, there's no coating.

It is stainless steel without a coating of any kind. It is very easy to clean. I use mine for stir frying, which means using very little oil; stirring constantly in order to keep the food from sticking.

Is it stainless steel or a coated one? I did have that issue with the 40 oz stainless steel. I sent it back and the company replaced it free of charge. My 64 stainless steel does not get cold I the outside.It could be defective. Check how long it holds ice.

This scooper is Stainless Steel which is why I bought it. We use it at the Hofbrauhaus Las Vegas Restaurant where I work and it has held up fine. Most of the scoopers are aluminum and they don't hold up to a dishwasher but stainless does. Hope this helps.

The handle is pure stainless steel. Stainless steel doesn't conduct heat very well so the stainless handles helps it to stay cool.

The only plastic is the black on the outside of the handles. It's very comfortable in your hand. I love OXO products and they are know for having all their products very comfortable to use. I make a lot of cookies and I gave away my small cookie scoop to my mother. So this replaced it. I have small, medium, and large scoops. Will continue to order these cookie scoops, as needed.

It feels solid all the way down. We have a freezer unit that we run colder than the refrigerator freezer so ice cream from the freezer unit is always much harder. I would be surprised if this scoop can break like the last one we had that broke out of the handle. I am comfortable using as much force as I need to.

I don't recall (I gave mine to my granddaughter) but I seem to recall the handle was all stainless steel. If so, you're good to go - in or out of the oven.

It is not stainless steel. It is a hard plastic housing that is silver colored. Don't let that dissuade you frombuying. It is loud but makes great ice cream.

Not much, it may be heavier duty but I don't have anything to compare it to. Many ice scoops are stainless and more expensive. It has a rounded bottom and is very sturdy, I scoop coal with it.
