Summary: The best hotpads anywhere
Comment: I've got a drawer with a dozen hot pads, including three kinds of silicon pads, fabric mitts, terry-style pads, and a pair (now two pair) of kitchen grips. I love the kitchen grips. Unlike the silicon pads, these are soft and supple. Unlike the fabric pads, these absorb no liquids. I've used my first pair for more than a year and they are still in great shape. Now that I've got a second pair, I find I don't use any of the others, except sometimes I use a silicon pad as a trivet.
Customer Rating: Summary: Easy to use
Comment: These are really easy to use, keeps things from slipping, and hold up in really high heat. I don't care whether they stay spotless or not, they serve their purpose!
Customer Rating: Summary: Love these things
Comment: I've tried all kinds of kitchen grips, these are my favorites. I have trouble grasping items, these work fantastic. In addition, I can use them to open jars, turn handles that need tightening, and continue to find uses. I've had no problems cleaning them. Am buying more!

Summary: Fair
Comment: Contrary to the description, you can't just wash these off.
I ended up buying a different brand at Walmart that are less expensive and can be rinsed off and function the same in regards to heat resistence etc.
