Tongs with attitude
These are really nice. I like that the hanging loop is narrow for closely spaced hooks (like on the Performer grill). Pulling the loop, as when hanging it, locks the tongs shut for compact storage.
They are a little lighter weight than the rest of the tools in the Style line, and are not as curvy. Nothing to stop you from buying them, but they could be a little heavier, and it would be nice if they had that "carved out of a solid block of alloy" look that the rest of the line has. Harder to do with something that has moving parts like this, I suppose. Read more...

Poor engineering
I was disappointed with these tongs, which was surprising since OXO makes good kitchen utensils. I agree with other reviewers, it is difficult to grasp and close them. Unless you have a rather large hand (which I don't), you're forced to grasp the handle so far down near the stainless steel! When comparing these to my 12" tongs my hand grasp was at the same point - which really made these 16" tongs no different from the 12" ones. Read more...
