Amazon.com Review
Not only do these 12-inch tongs cushion hands and provide thumb rests, which are useful when gripping heavy objects, but the nylon heads won’t scratch nonstick cookware. Doubling as a hang loop, a tab on the bottom pulls out to lock the stainless-steel tongs shut, allowing them to slip easily into a drawer. The nylon heads are heat-resistant to 400 degrees Fahrenheit, and the tongs are dishwasher-safe. --Ann Bieri

Customer Reviews

these are just great
non stick locking so they dont take up drawer space i dont know how i cooked without these. oh right burned fingers and scratched up cookware!

Simply The Best
Like some of the other reviewers I originally saw these tongs in an America's Test Kitchen product review quite some time ago. The unusual name "OXO" stuck in my head. When I decided to replace some old tongs with a more substantial pair my choice was OXO. I only wish I'd bought both sizes. I see a larger pair in a future order. I will probably buy these for gifts as well. I know they would be appreciated.

Wonderful, Sturdy,
I took a cooking class and the chef said 'everyone needs tongs'. Really? I have never had tongs in my kitchen before but I went out and bought them. Oxo is a good name brand and I didn't know how to buy tongs but these folded down and fit in my drawer so I bought them.

These are the best thing and I wish I had bought more when I did buy them. I use them for flipping everything and find that I use them more than I do a spatula. I often use them when I'm stir frying because I can pick up individual pieces of food and flip them or move them out of the way.

They are sturdy, they fold down and fit in a drawer and they wash up easily. Great.
