HOTEC Premium Stainless Steel Locking Kitchen Tongs with Silicon Tips, Set of 2-9" and 12"

Very sturdy, colors were exactly as shown, love having a variety of sizes and easy to clean! Have not had any heat issues either!

These tongs work very well. It’s nice to have multiple sizes. I have only hand washed them because my previous ones rusted and wouldn’t lock anymore. So far the locking mechanism has not malfunctioned. The tips of these tongs are slightly more pointed than any I have ever had before which means you have to grab stuff with more precision. This doesn’t detract from their usability, just different. I recommend these tongs.

Excellent for the price. Good quality and work well. Love the different lengths.

(HOTEC Premium Stainless Steel Locking Kitchen Tongs with Silicon Tips, Set of 3-7", 9" and 12" (Grey) / $10 at the time of the review) Out of the box, this is a fairly good set of tongs for home use. The silicone ends are about as thick as you'd want them to be and their grip is good as there's no flex to the tips. Picking up individual pieces of food like broccoli or muffins is easy. And (using the medium-sized tongs) I was able to flip a decent sized steak without any issue. The locking/unlocking ring works just as it should. As for construction, it looks like the silicone tips are 'inserted' into the handles. I've included a close-up pic of where they connect. With a lot of use, the silicone tip could eventually bend off or fall out. Only time will tell. But overall, the quality of these are better than average, especially considering their low price. The sides of the tongs have color-matched silicone grips. It's helpful when holding/using them. On the smaller-sized ones, the there's less than an 1" of stainless steel exposed on the sides. But on the larger tong, there's over 3" of stainless steel exposed (pictured). Additionally, the silicone doesn't wrap around the frame of the tongs so, you still have to be careful when using these with ceramic cookware. You won't want to be resting them on the sides of your pans. So far they seem to be handling heat well. Since they're never sitting in or on the pan for any length time when I'm cooking, they should last a while. I haven't run them through the dishwasher. I usually hand wash most things only because it takes me a while to fill the dishwasher for use. I'll revisit this review as I use them more. For the price though, the quality of these was better than expected.

Very good quality,heavy duty and easy to use.The works perfectly for cooking.

Great tongs. Work well for turning bacon in a nonstick pan. Very solid, not cheaply made. The locking mechanism works well for storing in a drawer. Very happy with product. Arrived promptly..

I recently purchased these tongs, and I must say, they are fantastic! Right from the start, it was clear that these tongs are built to last. The overall construction feels incredibly sturdy, giving me confidence that they can handle a variety of cooking tasks without any issues. One of the standout features is the silicone grip, which provides a comfortable and secure hold. Another thoughtful detail is the silicone tips. As a family, we’ve become increasingly conscious of the potential risks of microplastics in our food, so having silicone tips is a big plus for us. The best part is that the silicone tips are securely attached to the metal frame, unlike some other tongs I’ve owned where the tips have a tendency to slide or even fall off after repeated use. This added durability is definitely something I appreciate. When it comes to functionality, the silicone tips are solid but with just enough flexibility at the very tip to make picking up thin or delicate food items easy. The minimal flexibility in the tips ensures that I have control over whatever I’m picking up, without worrying about the tongs bending or losing grip. Overall, I’m really happy with this purchase. The combination of sturdiness, a comfortable silicone grip, secure silicone tips, and reliable performance make these tongs a must-have kitchen tool. They’re perfect for anyone who wants a durable, safe, and easy-to-use pair of tongs. Highly recommended!

Collapsible easy to use and store

This is a Fantastic product in a cheap price 👍👍

I haven’t used them yet but the quality is nice, the lock mechanism is a bit off though. We’ll see how it holds up. Generally definitely worth the price

Super ! Bonne qualité et super pratique la position fermée. Seule la grande pince est utile. J’ai donné la moyenne à ma mère et la petite va rester au fond d’un tiroir.

使いやすい。閉じた状態で収納でき、使う時は、押すとパッと開く。気持ち良く使えています。

This Hotec set of 3 cooking tongs is absolutely fantastic. Each size is perfectly designed for different tasks — from flipping food in the pan, to grilling, to serving salads. The build quality is immediately noticeable: sturdy stainless steel with a solid feel and no flex or wobble. The grip is comfortable and secure, and the spring tension is just right — smooth to use without hand fatigue. The tips give great control, making it easy to turn meat, vegetables, or delicate food without slipping. I also love the locking mechanism — it works reliably and makes storage neat and compact. They’re heat-resistant, easy to clean, and dishwasher safe, which is always a plus. After using cheaper tongs in the past, these feel like a serious upgrade. If you cook or grill regularly, this set is a must-have. Five stars — versatile, durable, and perfect for everyday cooking.
