HOTEC Premium Stainless Steel Locking Kitchen Tongs with Silicon Tips, Set of 3-7", 9" and 12" (Black)

I can't believe this happened... but I used the large red tongs to grill a steak last night... Everything seemed to go well until I'm eating the steak and notice a sliver of red rubber on my plate! The tip of the tongs had broken off -- and this was the first time I used them. So I guess you get what you pay for?

Amazing value and utility. I have an old square'/flat tip silicone tong that I'd near end of life. I got this for the multiple sizes and colors. Excellent value. Lightweight yet sturdy. The tips work well and I've even used when flipping fried eggs. Saves time and easy to clean. I use the shorter ones when serving food or with the toaster oven. I cooked pork chops and salmon and these work great. Cant wait to try it on steak!

How have I missed the utility of tongs? These three tools have quickly earned pride of place next to my kitchen range. Stirring, sautéing, flipping veggies, pulling out a toaster shelf, mixing a salad, and even pinching out a single piece of spaghetti to test whether it is al dente. Safe, comfortable, and versatile. Convenient locking mechanism for slipping neatly into the utensil crock. Delightful colors. Terrific. I bought another set for my daughter.

So tongs are tongs, but these hold the appropriate weight for the size are comfortable to hold and dont scratch my non-stick cookware. I almost only cook now with tongs, and I beat them up pretty bad, so I buy a set almost every year. I think these will be as good as any others that I have tried in a similar price point.

Saw a cook on TV use tongs for so many different things, which inspired this purchase. Super happy with it. Great to have multiple sets in different sizes. Pretty early after purchase, but don’t see these finding their way to the back of the drawer. Plus, clapping tongs is one of life’s little pleasures!

They work great and have had no issues with them. Like the locking mechanism. Not much more I can say about tongs. Basically got them to use in the Ninja so the non-stick surface didn't get chipped.

Yes, I use the medium size at my mail slot to pick up mail to set aside for a day. The larger ones I use for the soft packages I receive, as well as for retrieval of small fallen items. The small ones are handy for a number of applications in the kitchen.The lock mechanism is simple and effective. Easy to pop in the dishwasher. All in all, getting the set of three sizes was a perfect choice.

We use tongs a lot for cooking. The pair we had were pretty old and I was looking to upgrade. I ordered this set cause it had the 3 different size options. I like the silicone ends and the locking option. My old pair did not have either of those features. We have used these to cook on the grill and to turn food in the oven. They are very versatile and easy to clean! Win win for me!

I love these tongs, they are so easy to use. The open/close mechanism is smooth and glides easily, they pick up food easily, the silicone grips food well….it also grips items on the top shelf of the kitchen cupboard so I don’t have to fetch a stool.They are easy to clean but can go in the dishwasher and also can be used in hot water/oil/etc. without melting!Highly recommend, I am going to buy another set and recycle all of my old dodgy tongs!

Quite often with these style of tongues the rivet wears at the pivot point of opening. This set seems to have a good strong rivet head so I think they will last a reasonable amount of time. The quality seems good and the operation seems smooth......there is not much more I can say about a pair of kitchen tongues!

I've had these less than a week and the ends have fallen off 2 of them while in use. Absolutely rubbish tongs. Ive since super glued the silicone ends back on but they should never be falling off into the pan anyway! The larger pair haven't been used yet but the ends have been glued on just in case.

I've had these for a few months now and they get used a lot. They are by far the best quality tongs I have had and seem to be well up to the job. Much better than more expensive ones that I've used and stand up to the immense heat of an Aga, Great price, great product.

Bought for hotpot, raclette grill top and also frying pan instead of spatula. Easy to use and clean, has a good grab to hold on to. They are brilliant to use on frying pan or raclette grill or hotpot. Happy to have them for indoor BBQ at home.
