Cooking Tongs 9" and 12" Stainless Steel Kitchen Silicone Serving Tongs

Fantastic tongs! I had been looking for tongs shaped like a spatula on both sides to flip my food. These are lightweight and are easy to use because they grasp my food with very little pressure and they spring open once I release my grip. These tongs look and feel durable with good quality in a nice black and silver color. These tongs are made with stainless steel and a silicone material that's soft to the touch; it doesn't scratch my pots and pans. The silicone tongs also sturdy to hold it's shape and grasp my food securely. I hand washed my tongs in warm soapy dish water and they were easy to clean. I like that there's a hoop ring at the end of the tongs that you pull outward to secure the tongs in the closed position when your done and you press the hoop inward to open the tongs for use. Putting the tongs in the closed position makes them easy for hanging, storing in a drawer, or displaying in an open container on your counter. Overall, I'm very satisfied and my search is finally over because I found my perfect tongs! I got these tongs in the 7 and 9 inch size in a 2 pack and I definitely find value in it's purchase!

They are great

Overall these were great and I'm glad I bought them. I wish the spatula itself was larger so you could move more stuff with each grab. Also the leading edge does not taper like a regular plastis spatula so it's hard to flip items that are tight to the pan without them bunching up or just pushing them around see attached photos showing edge reference to a normal spatula and the K-Cup is there just for size comparison.

Great tongs to make flipping eggs easier! The long pair I keep in my kitchen. The shorter pair is part of my travel cook set that I have for work. They’re built very well and seem durable.

TLDR. Good, utilitarian tongs, will not last forever. Reccomend. I had a pair of tongs that were very similar to these for which I was looking for a replacement. These are great but they have the same weaknesses. Pros: They are thin enough to scrape but thick enough to hold large things. The metal goes all the way in so they are stiff but the angle of pinch or gap can be adjusted easily. The silicone on the handles adds extra grip. The lock doesn't slip and is a push-off lock which is the best kind for opening quickly. The silicone will not melt and the stainless steel can be cleaned with caustic cleaners and not be affected if needed. Not many places to collect food and super resistant to staining. Cons: The metal eventually poked through the plastic tip in the ones I had that were the same style which made them not useable for scraping non-stick. This was after a couple years. The silicone pads on the grips eventually slipped and broke off because they were flimsy. Difficult to lock closed with one hand. Like all manufactured silicone products, I suggest baking in a 200°F oven for 30 minutes and then washing thoroughly. This will finalize the curing and outgassing process and keep plastic products from getting in your food. Science is not settled on whether these are harmful or not but it's probably best to reduce exposure. Kinda gross either way.

Great idea but they’re quite flimsy so the grip is loose

This tongs are great! They came in 2 sizes and work really well when turning things in my frying pan. Or even on my grill. They're thick and very well made.

They are perfect for everyday use.

Product arrived really quickly. Works as it should, I like that there is 2 sizes.

Están muy buenas y son de silicón grueso. Super bien para que no se derritan ni quemen. Valen la pena.

Las uso para casi todas las preparaciones, ya no me imagino cocinar sin ellas. No pasa el calor a tus dedos.

Le doy cuatro estrellas porque el filo debería ser mas refinado para facilitar el ingreso por debajo de lo que se está manejando. Ojalá que las próximas versiones vengan con ésta mejora.
