OXOGood Grips 9-Inch Tongs with Silicone Heads, Black

Sturdy, functional. OXO products are always reliable.

Great item!

Bought it as a stocking stuffer for Christmas 24. I thought it was a little high but it's our go-to tongs for everything but the heavy stuff. The silicone is holding up, it still locks and unlocks easily. For the use we give it, it was worth the price,

I purchased these because of a review done from America’s Test Kitchen. I use them a lot for reviews on items for my kitchen before I buy them and I’ve had good luck. My only issue with these is you kinda need two hands to use them unlike my other ones that I just tip and squeeze and then they lock closed. These don’t close that way and you have to push the bottom in to lock them shut. Not the end of the world, but my other ones are just easier to use with one hand.

Love the size and length of these tongs. They are my favorite tongs and work great!

I have 3 pairs do different sizes. Work great inside and out in the grill. They are made well and last a long time.

I didn’t expect to form an emotional bond with kitchen tongs, but here we are.The OXO Good Grips 9-Inch Tongs with Silicone Heads are the kind of overachievers that make all your other utensils feel insecure. They grip like a Victorian ghost clinging to unfinished business. And the silicone heads? Gentle enough to flip a crepe, strong enough to wrangle a rogue chicken thigh trying to make a break for it.The locking mechanism actually works really well. And the grip rocks. I could probably perform surgery with these. I won’t. But I could.Dishwasher safe? Of course. Heat-resistant? Obviously. Look good in your kitchen drawer? As much as anything looks good buried under 14 rubber bands and 3 wine corks you’re “definitely going to use for a DIY project.”Bottom line: These tongs slap. Not literally. But they could, if provoked (That’s _your_ job)Buy them. Or don’t.

Our old nylon tongs were wearing out so we decided to replace them with silicone ones. These OXO tongs are great quality and sturdy. Does not feel like some of the cheaper quality ones out there. Really glad we went back to OXO. Always that peace of mind that we purchased a good brand that will last us a long time. Love how sturdy it feels without feeling too heavy. Highly recommend!
