🔥 Stay Cool with Lodge Silicone Hot Handle Holder - One Size, Blue Review

The stick offers poor thermal protection and starts to break down after just a few uses. It offers a weak grip at best on large pots and is completely useless on small models. I have two and they serve no real purpose other than adding more red accents to my kitchen decor.

I've had this (in black) for a few months. It's just too big and not heat resistant enough. Too large a size is potentially dangerous as the pan may/will curl up in the holder causing spillage and as it is often used with heated oil inside. Well you see the problem.

I heated the pan for ten minutes on high heat with a silicone lid on the handle as high heat usually cooks fairly quickly. The handle didn't get hot.
