Customer Reviews

Get a Grip!
Like much of the Le Creuset line, these dishwasher safe round silicone hot pads have multiple uses. Covered with ridges they make excellent trivets for resting hot pots and pans on while allowing for air flow. The ridges also make these perfect to set eggs on so they don't roll off the counter. They are firm enough to use as a fan when a little air movement would come in handy. Combined with the ridges, they are flexible enough for opening jars and bending/gripping around medium to large handles.

The only drawback is that they don't work well with smaller sized handles. This makes using these pads with other Le Creuset product like the pate terrine or the au gratins pretty much useless when it comes to grabbing and moving them.

PROS:
Useful and versatile
Sturdy
Heat resistant
Dishwasher safe

CONS:
Cannot effectively grab smaller sized handles

Nice, but much smaller than I thought it would be.
Practical for the smallest pot only. They really should post the dimension. Pricey for such a small item.

Update: Having this item in the kitchen for a few months has shown just how practical this item can be. It is sturdy, fits the hand well, nice for resting something hot. Its true utility, however, may be as a great & easy way to open that stubborn jar or other container. It has held up extremely well & is very sturdy. The ribbed texture makes it so useful. It is a very thick rubber & actually is worth the price. Still looks new despite almost daily use.

several uses
We use these to cover our glass stovetop to keep our cats from being burned after cooking. They are also useful for placing hot items from the stove/oven onto the countertop and for grabbing hot items when the oven mit isn't handy. We have two colors, one for accent.

Very useful in the kitchen !
