Customer Review: Most useful item in the kitchen
Summary: 5 Stars
Plain in simple- i use it daily- and i love it. Tongs ROCK and these are exceptionally well made. Customer Review: Love These Oxo Tongs
Summary: 5 Stars
I needed tongs to use with my non-stick pans and these are great. I use them all the time, like the nonstick and the locking feature. You generally can't go wrong with OXO products.Customer Review: Great tongs!
Summary: 5 Stars
Love these tongs! Easy to use, doesn't scratch nonstick surfaces, exactly what I needed.Customer Review: A good pair of tongs that don't scratch my cookware
Summary: 4 Stars
This pair of tongs has a good grip, and good nylon tips. My only gripe is that the arms of the tongs could be a bit easier to clean, but it is a good utensil over all.Customer Review: No dishwasher safe?
Summary: 4 Stars
These are great tongs. The other zillion people rating them should have you convinced of that by now. Even though I'm very satisfied I'm going to concentrate on my complaints instead of their virtues.
Cons(-)
- hard to get clean without a dishwasher. The arms are not closed but curve under towards the food side, making a long skinny cave for stuff to hide.
- The rubber grips on the arms are far from heat safe. I'm not sure how they ever got exposed to direct heat there without my hand burning up first, but they did.
Neutral
- In retrospect a longer pair would make some jobs easier. Nine inches is really only right for the stove top.
Pros (+)
- Many, see the other reviews.
- Notably the locking design is vastly superior to the foolish old ring design, what were we ever thinking?
Verdict: buy 'em.
