Customer Reviews

Good, but limited
These are nice potholders for protecting your countertop, but not as effective at protecting your hands. Without double-layering the pad, the heat gradually gets through to your hand (e.g., when pulling a sheet pan out of the oven and holding it to check doneness of your food). You get about 15-20 seconds before it gets uncomfortable.

On the "pro" side, they are easy to clean, provide a non-slip surface and take up very little room when storing.

Wonderful potholders
I love these potholders. I was a little nervous ordering them because of the bad reviews some people had given. I think they are plenty flexible, I can grab a handle on a pan or a baking dish. Being able to wash them is a great plus. I can see how you could burn yourself through the hole, but once you figure out how to hold them they work great.

Silicone Potholder
Was hoping to get a potholder that I could easily wipe off rather than my fabric ones dipping into foods and getting messy quickly. Was very disappointed. This is not a product to be reaching into an oven with. Fine to set hot pots on, but not to be used to pull food out of an oven.
