Oxo Good Grips 9-Inch Locking Tongs with Nylon Heads Reviews

Summary: I've Become a Fan
Comment: I'm quickly becoming a huge fan of Oxo products, and I'm starting to wish I were starting from a blank slate. Unfortunately, I have a lot of old, useless gadgets that will have to wear out before I replace them with Oxo.

This set of tongs makes so much sense. The plastic areas both keep the tongs cool while you hold them and protects non-stick pans.

Comment: Oxo Good Grips 9-Inch Locking Tongs with Nylon Heads


The tongs are really sturdy and the nylon heads don't destroy your teflon as metal ones tend to. They also stand up to a lot of heat so they don't melt.

Summary: Perfect for non-stick pans
Comment: This kitchen tool is what I really needed for the few non-stick pans that I use (other than my cast iron skillets).

The nylon scalloped tips are perfect for all the items that I cook in teflon or silverstone pans. Other reviewers complain that nylon cannot take high heat, but then, most non-stick pans can't either. Silicone tips could take the heat, but they are not nearly as sturdy. I would find it very difficult to pick up large items with something as soft as silicone.

What I like best about this too is the fact that it locks closed, which makes it easy to store in a drawer. I have to keep most of my other tongs hanging half out of a utensil crock.

Summary: Super tongs!
Comment: These OXO tongs have a great grip (maybe it's the nylon tips). The length is perfect. I like them far better than a pair of 12" metal All Clad tongs that I own.

Summary: Good, but. . .
Comment: These tongs work pretty well. I liked the nylon tips for use on nonstick cookware. However, I think the nylon tips are too thick, making it hard to pick up pork chops or anything else using just the tongs in one hand. This is a little disappointing. I think I will try the thinner tipped silicone tongs next. Otherwise I've been very impressed with OXO products.
