Color: black

Amazon.com Product Description

Bring safety and style to any kitchen with this clever pot-handle mitt on duty. Designed to fit snugly over most standard-size pot or pan handles, the durable, lightweight unit protects hands from fresh-off-the-stovetop fry pans, skillets, and skillet grills. Its special oblong design ensures that hot cookware can be transferred safely and comfortably, while still offering superior heat protection. Thoughtfully designed, the mitt features a cotton-canvas exterior, which comes treated with color-fast dyes that stand up to repeated washing, and a 100-percent cotton-terry-cloth lining, which conforms to British heat-penetration standards. Both the cotton terry and the canvas benefit from the protection of Teflon, which effectively resists stains and spills. A flexible, non-permeable nylon barrier (sandwiched between the insulation) prevents penetration of steam, water, and grease for added protection. A mitt without this barrier becomes damp and heat will immediately pass through (with grease, this will happen every time it gets used before it's washed). The sleek mitt stores flat with other pot holders for compact convenience in a cupboard, pantry, or pullout drawer beneath the oven. Alternately, use its convenient loop for hanging on storage hooks. The handle mitt measures approximately 3-1/2 by 7-1/5 by 1/2 inches.

Product Description

Le Creuset Hi-tech Kitchen Textile Handle Mitt, Black, 100% cotton terry cloth with a cotton lining that is tested against and conforms to British heat penetration standards. A flexible, non-permeable nylon barrier is sandwiched between the insulation and prevents penetration of steam, water and grease. A glove without this barrier becomes damp and heat will immediately pass through (with grease, this will happen every time the glove is used before it is washed). Canvas construction is tough enough to stand up to the heat of the kitchen and light enough to be comfortable. Fast dyed to hold its color even after repeated washing. Both the cotton terry and the canvas are protected by TEFLON which effectively repels stains and water.

I thought these were hand-sized slip-over mitten-like things, but when the two I ordered arrived, they were the tiny little pot handle mittens. It DOES say very clearly in the product description that they are a handle mitt (now that I re-read it), and I can use them, but I think they are WAY overpriced for what they are. But they are very, very nice, so they get five stars. Just don't do what I did and think they are something other than what they are.

BTW, getting old and having your faculties slip is such a major drag....

I love these things!
They are great for both pot handles and lids.
Thick enough to protect from the heat, thin enough to have a "feel" of what you're gripping.
I wouldn't use them for the oven.

I don't know why the price and availability varies so much.
But for $5, with free super saver shipping, they can't be beat.

These are great on my pots without any coating on the handle. Great size and wash well also. I usually sick them on when I put the pot or pan on the stove and they have only gotten warm once with a small egg size pan over gas heat. I have had them for several months. Bought 6, 3 for me and 3 for a friend with the same pots and pans. She loves them also!
