Quality tongs for my opinion

I love these tongs. They’re heavy duty; just holding them I can feel the quality. There’s a little tab on top that you pull and push to lock and unlock the tongs, making them easy to store in a closed position. The silicone ends are nice and big—really, the whole tool is nice and big. These are definitely better than the cheap tongs I’ve been using!

Pros
  • Just what I was looking for! Good quality and perfect size for my instant pot duo crisp.
Cons
  • The 12-inch size may be too long for some smaller pots

A well made set of tongs

While I have an Instant Pot, I tend to use tongs often when cooking via any number of methods. These work well in all scenarios, and they work well in an Instant Pot. They're nothing remarkable vs a well made set of tongs. Buy if you want a nice set of tongs, and note I've bought equally good ones for less. Don't expect much as a bespoke "Instant Pot" set of tongs however.Haven't used any better--used plenty just as good for less.

Pros
  • Use it in my air fryer
Cons
  • The red color may fade over time after exposure to sun or heat

Good, functional tongs

These tongs are a little bit heavier than our earlier ones, which bothers my wife a little bit, but otherwise they do what they need to do.After months of use, these still show no signs of wear or damage.They are easy to use, and we put them in the dishwasher, top rack.

Pros
  • Great tool for the instant pot.
Cons
  • The metal construction may make the tongs too hot to handle on a stovetop

Very useful, great product

I bought this one as a gift. I bought the first one for myself and was surprised at how useful it is. I always had a long one for the grill outside but this short one is great for using with the Instant Pot. Love it.

Pros
  • Title says it all.
Cons
  • The tongs may not lock securely after repeated use

Heavy duty, not just for the insta-pot.

Very nice silicone head tongs, they are insta-pot brand however I don’t own a insta-pot and I still use and love them. Pull/push locking mechanism works perfectly and they feel very heavy duty. We use them with our non stick pans to prevent scratches and also occasionally use with the grill.

Pros
  • These are the best ones I have ever purchased. They are so smooth to use
Cons
  • They may not be suitable for outdoor grilling

Great tongs!: my feedback

I wanted some silicone tongs so I don't have to worry about metal damaging my nice pots and pans. I also like the great red color and how easy they are to keep closed.

Pros
  • Best of any I’ve ever used.
Cons
  • The tongs may be too rigid to adapt to different angles or positions

Work as expected - my new review

Sturdy product with long handles. It makes it really easy to grip the 4 ounce mason jars from the pot of very hot water I am using to cook them Sous Vide. I’m very pleased with this purchase

Pros
  • Seem to be high quality, I wasn’t sure what to expect. Very happy with purchase.
Cons
  • The price may be higher than some competitors

sturdy and comfortable

These work well and have a good rubber gripping surface so the food doesn't slip around. They are better made than some of the competing brands of tongs. Very nice.

Pros
  • Protects the surfaces of my ceramic frying pan and my slow cooker!
Cons
  • The red finish may show scratches or wear over time

Essential item: my feedback

I gave these to my mom for her instant pot. She thinks they're great. These are absolutely essential when removing food from the instant pot. The pot is deep, so reaching food with these tongs makes it sooooo much easier. I even bought some for myself. Not mad. :-)

Pros
  • Love this product
Cons
  • The tongs may not have a strong enough grip for heavier items

Handy tongs on my review.

Long and have teflon on the ends for working with hot objects. Open enough to easily grasp a mason jar out of a vat of hot water or removing food from a pressure cooker. The ring at the top either by pushing it in or pulling it out will lock the tongs in closed position.

Pros
  • Love this!! Great quality! I would definitely buy again if it ever wears out👌🏼
Cons
  • The tips may not be sharp enough to easily pick up small items
