OXO has never disappointed me and these OXO Good Grips 12-Inch Tongs with Black Silicone Heads continue to impress. I had a pair of OXO metal tongs in the past without the Silicone and was very happy with them however I was always concerned with using them with certain cookware because I was afraid they may scratch the nonstick coating. These Tongs with the Silicon are just as good as my other ones but I can use them when I cook with my nonstick pans without worrying about scratches. The silicone seems to be high quality and work perfectly at any temperature my stove top can reach. They have an easy lock/unlock feature that can be used one handed. The 12 inch is the perfect size for using in the kitchen with most pots/pans.
Conclusion:
They are easy to use easy to grasp food with precision. They won’t scratch pots/pans and do not melt when working with high temperatures. Easy to clean and store. They are well designed and function exactly as you expect them to function. I would recommend these to anyone who likes to cook and enjoys high quality cookware.
Anyway, I always wanted a set of good tongs, but I waited at least 2-3 years to buy these. I felt the prices were too high, but they never seemed to go on sale, so I finally pulled the trigger and purchased the 9" size, and not long afterward, I purchased the 12". I love them both. The 9" is good for handling foods that are not very hot. The 12" size are better for taking food out of the air fryer or off of a hot grill for instance. Both have a lot of uses, though.
They are well made and feel as though they will last many years, so I will not complain about the price. Yes, I would recommend these if you do a reasonable amount of food preparation, and by that I mean if you prepare at least one real meal a day. Still wish they were a bit less expensive though!
I bought a second 12" model recently so I always have one to use while the other's in the dishwasher. My original one has been used 3-7 times a week for about 4 years and I can only tell which is which if i really look hard. Bottom line is great tongs, great durability, great usability. A+

A differenza di ogni altra pinza che mi sia capitato di maneggiare queste hanno una costruzione decisamente più solida e danno idea di essere molto resistenti; il dettaglio per me più importante sono le punte in silicone: esse non sono interamente in silicone, ma il silicone è una copertura delle sottostanti estremità in acciaio. Questo fa sì che le teste siano leggermente più spesse della maggior parte delle altre pinze di questo tipo (quindi un po' meno comode per maneggiare elementi molto sottili, come un singolo fagiolino o una fettina sottilissima di carne), ma permettono di gestire con efficacia i tagli grandi e pesanti, risultando perfette per gestire ad esempio bistecche fiorentine da oltre un chilo, pollame intero, arrosti e via dicendo.
In conclusione, per i lavori su piccoli elementi ci sono sicuramente altre pinze più comode e agili, ma per gestire medi e soprattutto grandi tagli (su materiale delicato come una copertura antiaderente di una teglia) queste pinze sono eccezionali e trasmettono un'assoluta sicurezza nella presa degli alimenti e nella loro movimentazione.
Buono anche il meccanismo di chiusura e l'impugnara antiscivolo, nel complesso consigliatissime.
-Nota finale- Della stessa marca vi è una versione molto simile, ma con teste in nylon: a differenza del modello qui rencensito, le teste non dovrebbero essere in acciaio ricoperto, ma interamente in materiale plastico rendendole più sottili e precise, ma inevitabilmente suppongo (non le ho mai provate dal vivo) anche meno solide e resistenti. A mio giudizio sul taglio più grande, da 30 cm, la solidità è un grande valore aggiunto, alcuni però potebbero anche preferire le teste più sottili e precise, soprattutto per la versione più corta da 20-22 cm (che in genere si usa su alimenti più piccoli e leggeri); come detto non le ho mai testate, ma credo che qualitativamente siano anch'esse prodotti di ottimo livello come le altre pinze della Oxo.

I got this to add it to my OXO collection and I cannot recommend this enough.
The 30cm size is just perfect. Big enough to be effective enough to reach the end of an oven, but yet not big enough for your storage drawer.
The heads are made with silicone which give you great grip on foods like vegetables, meats etc. I have been using them for some time now, and they still look like new. I have even dip them inside a hot boiling oil to stir potatoes.
The grips are made of stainless steel with silicone padding on the sides to give you amazing control over flipping and gripping food.
I have even used them outdoor on my grill without any problems.
As always, very pleased with this OXO product and cannot recommend this enough, a must have for all kitchens.

J'utilise, surtout, avec mon Air Fryer Ninja. Avec cette pince, je sais bien que toutes les surfaces anti-adhérentes, resteront ainsi.
