Useful Single Pot Holder or Worksurface Protector. October 30, 2005 Amazon Reviewer 39 out of 39 found this review helpful
For those who prefer a single glove, this is useful for lifting hot pans or can double up as a useful mat on the work surface. The usual quality as expected from Le Creuset linens, in a variety of colours, on Amazon, today. Easy to care for product in 100% cotton canvas and towelling, coated with a `Teflon' protector for even greater resistance to accidental spillages.
Good Single Oven-Mitt February 9, 2006 Elise (Southend on Sea, UK) 5 out of 34 found this review helpful
This potholder is the high quality you'd expect from Le Creuset and I use it frequently. It is thick enough not to burn yourself but not so thick as to make the glove bulky & unwieldy. I really like the royal(ish) blue colour as it blends in with most of my other kitchen textiles & gadgets, but if you don't like it there are other coulours to choose from. The only reason I'm not giving it a 5-star rating is that the pot holder is only just big enough to cover down to very top of your wrist, which means a busy cook can catch her/his wrist on the side of the oven/oven door and get burned. In my experience, you'll only do it a couple of times before you learn to be more careful using it, but it does take it down to 4 stars from 5. I would still recommend it as a piece of high quality kitchen textiles, but just be careful, especially if you (like me) have large hands, you may want to go for something with better wrist protection.
