5.0 out of 5 stars
Related to OXO?,
By M Twain (Louisville, KY) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Outset QT20 Stella Stainless-Steel Locking Barbecue Tongs with Soft-Grip Handles (Lawn & Patio)
These things are constructed so closely with OXO tongs they have to be made by the same plant. The only things that distinguish these from OXO good grips tongs are:1. An embossed logo by the handle 2. A larger ring at the end of the lock 3. Lock is a bit tighter, but that may be due to my OXO tongs being several years old The similarities with OXO are: 1. The exact same size and scalloped shape of the gripping end 2. The exact same shaft dimensions 3. The exact same handle material 4. Handle design so exact that the rubber grips are interchangeable 5. The hinge design, down the the internal spring and lock are visibly identical If there is any doubt remaining, the product image is actually of OXO tongs, these tongs have a larger end loop on the lock with a copper ring attached.

Sliding Lock sticks and binds up,

This review is from: Outset QT20 Stella Stainless-Steel Locking Barbecue Tongs with Soft-Grip Handles (Lawn & Patio)
Note that every review so far (Nine of them) like this product.So keep that in mind when you read my review ... I must have gotten one that slipped by quality. And if you purchase these, there is a good chance you will get a five star product...BUT IT IS NOT my fault that they gave me a pair that sticks so please do not bad mouth me too much :), but my info is why you are here so I owe it to you to give the truth. The sliding lock sticks and binds up when trying to lock the tongs in the closed position. I poured cooking oil on the moving parts and that seemed to help a little bit. Also since the sliding lock sticks, the rubber piece is coming loose and sliding about, showing a lot of metal. If I keep it, I will pull on the rubber exposing the metal underneath and add some contact cement to the metal and then slide the rubber back over top of it. When these tongs are layed side by side next to my Oxo tongs, they are 98% compatible in just about every way. (Except the slot on the sliding lock is NOT AS WIDE as on the OXO. Thus it looks like someone decided to not just make some tongs, but to make a "knock off" version of Oxo. If the lock DID NOT STICK AND JAM, I would have given these a five stars. With the sticking and jamming I give them a three star. But now knowing that they intentionally decided to create an identical knock off, I am taking another star off. Quality is part of the cost of the product.

perfect b-b-q tongs,

This review is from: Outset QT20 Stella Stainless-Steel Locking Barbecue Tongs with Soft-Grip Handles (Lawn & Patio)
These are really nice....locking handle and extra length perfect for the bbq. Much longer and storage would be an issue. Great grip handle keeps cool even when tongs are hot.
