Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Lodge 2-Piece Hot Handle Holder Set, Red Pepper
Customer Review: Lodge 2-Piece Hot Handle Holder Set
Summary: 3 Stars
When cooking with cast iron skillets, these pans get HOT, extending through to the handles. I ordered the hot handle holder sets but it did not reduce the heat from the handle as I expected. Using one of the holders I continued to feel the high heat. But it worked better when I used two of the holders on the hot handle. It's too bad Lodge didn't make one holder strong enough to withstand the heat from the handle. CAUTION: Please note that these mitts are very flammable. Twice, the mitt caught fire from being in contact with the flame from a gas stove. Since these mitts are used to protect the handle from the heat, be careful to leave enough distance between the material and the cooking surface to prevent the mitt from catching on fire.Customer Review: I'm too hot to handle
Summary: 5 Stars
The first thing you need to realize is that when cooking with cast iron, the entire piece gets HOT. It is an even heating surface, and yes, that even includes the handles. That's why Lodge made the Hot Handle Holder Set, and they really hit the nail on the head with this one. The holders fit perfectly on the handles of the pans that they make. They slide on easily and can remain there while you're cooking the item, if it is not near an open flame of course. They protect your hands from heat, even when holding the pan for extended periods of time like while you're cleaning it after cooking. It also makes the handle more comfortable, and provides a pretty good grip. The red peppers are my favorite, but I also have a set of the green salsa holders and they're nice too. Lodge is a company that is known for their quality, and this product is no exception.Customer Review: Very handy!
Summary: 5 Stars
These handle covers are very handy and work well. I bought them with a Lodge cast iron skillet. Glad I got them since I know it would just have been a matter of time before I had burned my hand since I usually use more modern skillets. I am sure I would have forgotten to pick up a pot holder or an oven mit at some point before grabbing the iron handle. I have a gas stove top so the other thing I like about these sturdy handle covers is I don't worry about cloth hanging down from the handle to catch fire.Customer Review: Amazon is not the least expensive
Summary: 4 Stars
Good product but found the exact 2 piece set cheaper than Amazon's $7.99 at Fisher Hardware for $4.89. Wish I had checked there first.I can't give the full 5 stars based on the deal as a whole.
Customer Review: Excellent!
Summary: 5 Stars
These are perfect for all lodge skillets and I also use them on the older pieces of Calphalon that get hot handles. These are so much handier than having to pick up a pot holder repeatedly, you can just slip them on and leave them right through to clean up.
