Happy to report

I purchased this product for my sister. She has been using it since I gave it to her over a week ago. She prefers the tongs over spoons when cooking and she has been happy every since. Now if I can just get her to stop thanking me.

overall a good value for the money. Wasn't sure about the grips at first, but love them, gives good control.

So much better than the scissor type tongs. So easy to turn food, no hand pain. Think I'll order at least 1 more!

Finally. Perfect Tongs!

OXO has here hit a grand slam! From design to sturdy quality construction, these are the tongs I've searched for during more than 50 years of cooking. They're adept at properly handling any cook's 'perfect' creation - from a delicate stalk of asparagus to lifting a bulky and heavy pot roast.The tips don't damage the food product yet grip it securely. The tips are even nicely curved for scooping sauces etc. for tastings. The black pads on each arm are very comfortable in use and add helpful leverage. The locking mechanism is ideal.

The rubberized handles make these tongs easy on the hands, especially when using them for a long time.
