THUMBS DOWN! I got one last weekend just to try it out and it claimed on the label that it withstands up to 400 degree heat. Umm yeah ok. NOT. I heated up some potatoes in the oven tonight and the oven was only on 325 and I decided to try it when removing them. Nearly burnt my fingers! The heat immed. seeped through to my fingers! I know it was only a dollar but still.. Don't waste your money on these...

I gave up on these too. I thought it would be neat, but they soo don't work.

I know. I've seen them in the store for years and finally was like well I'll try it only to have my fingertips nearly burned off No thanks. I'll stick to my huge cushy oven mitt!

My DH got me an 'Ove Glove' for Christmas ( I know...I know...real romantic! ) and I'm pleasantly surprized at how well it works. It's not much thicker than a knit winter glove, but it really works. I haven't burnt myself yet. And for someone as clutsey as me, that's saying something!

I have a pair I got from walmart and they work really well but I paid 1.00 and they were 10.00.

Good to know. Kitchen "gadety" type stuff is my weakness, now I'll know to blow my money on something else.

Well maybe its just the dollar tree brand ones that work. I just was disappointed I mean you know its only a dollar but still I'm suing! j/k

I have some really nice silicone potholders from Marshalls (kitchen aid brand) and you really do need to move fast if you don't want burned. I know the cloth ones seem so unsanitary but they just work so much better to me. The silicone ones make nicer trivets, I guess.
