Product Description:
These tongs are handy for flipping a chicken breast, for turning shrimp in the pan, pulling an open-faced tuna melt sandwich out from under the broiler and so on. Thanks to their nylon ends they can be safely used with non-stick cookware!

Amazon.com Review:
Not only do these 9-inch tongs cushion hands and provide thumb rests, which are useful when gripping heavy objects, but the nylon heads won't scratch nonstick cookware. Doubling as a hang loop, a tab on the bottom pulls out to lock the stainless-steel tongs shut, allowing them to slip easily into a drawer. The nylon heads are heat-resistant to 400 degrees Fahrenheit, and the tongs are dishwasher-safe. --Ann Bieri

Features:
  • Stainless-steel arms with soft, comfortable grips

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - I've Become a Fan
I'm quickly becoming a huge fan of Oxo products, and I'm starting to wish I were starting from a blank slate.Unfortunately, I have a lot of old, useless gadgets that will have to wear out before I replace them with Oxo.

This set of tongs makes so much sense.The plastic areas both keep the tongs cool while you hold them and protects non-stick pans.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - great tool

The tongs are really sturdy and the nylon heads don't destroy your teflon as metal ones tend to. They also stand up to a lot of heat so they don't melt.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Perfect for non-stick pans
This kitchen tool is what I really needed for the few non-stick pans that I use (other than my cast iron skillets).

The nylon scalloped tips are perfect for all the items that I cook in teflon or silverstone pans. Other reviewers complain that nylon cannot take high heat, but then, most non-stick pans can't either. Silicone tips could take the heat, but they are not nearly as sturdy. I would find it very difficult to pick up large items with something as soft as silicone.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Super tongs!
These OXO tongs have a great grip (maybe it's the nylon tips).The length is perfect.I like them far better than a pair of 12" metal All Clad tongs that I own.

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Good, but. . .
These tongs work pretty well. I liked the nylon tips for use on nonstick cookware. However, I think the nylon tips are too thick, making it hard to pick up pork chops or anything else using just the tongs in one hand. This is a little disappointing. I think I will try the thinner tipped silicone tongs next. Otherwise I've been very impressed with OXO products.
