The misleadingly named Silicone Cookie Spatula from OXO is actually a great all-around tool. Its flipper is silicone-coated steel, so it's strong, but still sharp-edged and flexible. The spatula is on the small side, but I found that its size actually made it easier to manipulate in a crowded pan. Plus, if you're like me and keep a nonstick spatula around only for limited purposes—cooking eggs and the like—you may never feel the need for anything larger.
On the other hand, a silicone spatula that's too thin, or that lacks a strong enough core to reinforce it, turns floppy and useless when you're lifting heavy foods or scraping the bottom of a pan. So I also used each spatula to cook a half-pound burger, flipping frequently, to see whether it could hold a hefty patty without letting it slide off.Finally, a silicone spatula should be easy to clean.
Overall, the OXO spatula was the perfect balance of nimble, but strong. It was thin enough to flip eggs better than any other spatula we tested, yet strong enough to easily lift a half-pound burger. By contrast, the weakest spatula we tried, a silicone-coated fish spatula that was weirdly floppy all the way through the handle, could barely pick up an egg but was still thicker than the OXO.
How bout just stop using non stick cookware!
