Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Ateco 55-Piece Stainless Steel Decorating Tube Set with Hinged Storage BoxCustomer Review: Haven't used it yet, but here goes... Summary: 4 Stars
From the looks of this, I give it 4 stars. I haven't been able to actually put it to use due some life circumstances, but the quality of the tips is nice. As others have said of Ateco products, they may not be super popular like Wilton, but they are more durable. The metal is easily seen to be a bit thicker and stronger, which I like. Unlike another reviewer, mine came with everything it was supposed to. It's very nice to have all the tips I'm ever going to need, especially since the big icers and more intricate ones can cost 1.50-3 dollars each, so this is a good investment if you want to get into decorating, even if you're beginning. I really liked that it came with flower nails, both of different size, not only because you can easily make smaller or bigger roses, but also, and here's a trick, you can put them into the middle of you cake pan, along with the batter and bake it. Of course, if you make cakes bigger than the normal 8 or 9 in. round/square, then you need more nails. That will give your cake a nice even top, without have to use a corer--plus, their easier to remove than a corer. Also, they've got a nice lightly indented spiral, like a drill in the nail, so they're easier to hold and grip, while Wilton's are smooth and can easily fall if your hands are a bit sweaty or you loose your grip.
However, I have to take off a star. One reason is that I can't get the coupler to turn and set on correctly--it's always tilted. So it's a good thing I have some Wilton ones (which will hold Ateco tips, fyi). Also, like others have said, it would be nice to have a little booklet showing what each tip does. Instead, there is a picture on the back that shows a pattern and the tips which could make it. But it really stretches the line, as there's always ten tips, with different designs, that the picture says can make it.
Yet this is not too much of a problem. Almost all the Wilton and Ateco tips are numbered and designed the same. So if you really need or would like some reference, you can just buy a Wilton booklet or go to the Wilton website. This is a great product.
