- Storing it somewhere inconvenient. Decide where it lives — it needs a bit of cabinet space — because tools you have to dig out don't get used.
- Expecting it to replace technique. It makes stirring sauces and soups hands-free easier, but it works best alongside basic skills, not instead of them.
Getting the most out of your pick
Get more from your choice with these simple habits:
- Match the speed to the sauce — low for delicate, higher for thick

- Make sure the legs sit evenly on the rim before walking away

- Read the care instructions once. Most kitchen tools last years longer with thirty seconds of proper care.
