4.0 out of 5 stars Will protect your pans, silicon could use a little better grip, September 10, 2005

These tongs are definitely sturdy, and the silicon coating will help protect your pans. I've used these for a couple weeks and the only drawback is that the silicon can sometimes be too slick to really grab onto food. It's more of a problem when the food is in water (like pasta).

However, they're infinitely better than the all-plastic variety of tongs. With the plastic kind, you can't get a grip on anything because the plastic just bends. The metal tongs allow you to squeeze strongly enough to pick something up.

Bottom line: Nice to have in the kitchen, but not the only pair of tongs you'll ever need.

The silicone tips are nice I guess. They help with gripping and won't melt like nylon tips and are easy to clean.

I really like these tongs, although as mentioned in another review some things will slide out due to slickness. However, I use these tongs more than any other. I like the fact that you can close for storage! I would definately buy again.
