Corn Basket By Jennifer Pritt on - Updated Oct 15, 2011
When I first bought this Nonstick Corn Basket, I was overly excited because I'm constantly burning corn when I put it on the grill or it rolls off.
The Corn Basket is made out of aluminum with a non stick finish and the handle is wooden and attached to the Corn Basket. Although the Corn Basket advertises that the corn won't fall out because the basket adjusts to the width of your corn, the corn is impossible to keep in the basket while trying to turn it over.
I've tried multiple times and the corn falls off everytime because the basket doesn't securely hold it in. If you turn it over slow, the corn falls out. If you turn it over fast, the corn falls out. I have now found it easier just to put the corn on the grill without the basket.
For $15, I wouldn't recommend this and I wouldn't personally buy it again. Seemed like a good idea, but was a huge pain instead.

I would have purchased this too and been disappointed, thanks for the heads up.
Oh, shoot! I thought you were going to tell me this was great. Well, now I don't have to want one.
That's too bad... it looks like such a good idea!
Thanks for the warning on this one! So sad!
Aww..so sorry to hear the experience.It is looking nice and I was expecting you would be recommending it.Thanks for saving us.
Maybe if you wrapped it in foil with some butter. Seems like that would make the corn thick enough to hold it in place. I kinda think because of the foil I would like this. Sorry it did not work out for you.
Unfortunate that it doesn't work quite as advertised...I've seen these and passed but only because I really didn't have much use for it...we don't do our corn on the bbq. Glad I did now. Thanks for the info, good to know
Like you said, it sounded like a good idea. Too bad they didn't get it right.
Great product! This is such a neat corn holder when grilling cobs. I wish I can find one here in Dubai :)
