This baby is great. But, it works best on handles that are not flat like cast iron pans. Handles of pans can be straight but if they are flat the thing can't perform its most important function for me which is to store the large stirring spoon or paddle on it while cooking. The wet or business end of the spoon is dangling over the pan so no dripping on the stove. So yes I love it other wise. Elsewhere on Amazon there is a flat handle cover for cast iron pans ... get it! get two. they way cheap and so necessary if you use iron pans. Also for using iron pans of the grille ... get the flat one!

I think this is a quality product and with a very thick handle it would be great. For our Falk copper cookware it isn't what we reach for because it just doesn't fit well. It kind of collapses around the relatively narrow handles and you end up having to expend more energy on the grip than the lifting. We end up using the simple cloth, potholder-style slip on handle covers. Cheaper, more comfortable and they do the job.

This handle has never been a good fit for any of my pans. I have burned myself, when it has slipped off while I was lifting a large (but not heavy) pan. Would recommend against!

Works ok, but not on cast iron. It does not work very well on cast iron, it makes the pan unstable to hold. I almost burned myself yesterday pulling a cast iron skillet (Lodge specifically) out of the over with this on the handle. On my stovetop pans it works fine and keeps me from having to have a spoon rest on the stovetop.

This has become an indispensible item in our kitchen as we use it for lifting lids, as a pot holder, and it is superb as a mixing spoon holder. We loved it so much, we bought more!

I think this is a great product for just handles, but not for general use, and if I recall correctly, the ad for it claimed ore uses than just handles. I have a tea pot with a metal handle that gets too hot. I bought this for that purpose, but it's too awkward to use. Instead, I got a standard fabric type pot holder material "handle pot holder" and it works much better.

I bought this to use on a campfire percolator so I'd cover the handle and not lose the usual potholder, but it's only useable on pot handles, not lids, stock pot handles, etc. To try to make it work, I cut it vertically, but that didn't help. It's quite stiff so it wouldn't go around the handle without leaving a gap that would burn my hand. I could tie it on, but iff I did that, the tie material would burn on the campfire. I'll have to keep looking.
