Title: Not worth the hype
Product review: I was excited to purchase this item after reading the good reviews. I have burned myself more times than I can count with an old fashioned oven mitt, after they have gotten damp when a lot of baking is being done. I baked cookies today at 350 degrees, put on my new Lekue Silicone Super Flexible Oven mitt and took out the first batch. Before I could finish taking off the 12 chocolate chip cookies of the sheet my hand was really warm. For supposedly being heat resistance to 575 degrees, 350 should have been a breeze. Needless to say I am disappointed. I will continue to use them, since I do a lot of baking and my regular oven mitts get wet after I rinse off the sheets, but would not recommend them to friends. I also purchased a silicone oven mitt from my local grocery store (HEB, in Texas), it was their store brand, for my daughter. I tried her mitt and although being rated to only 450 degrees worked much better than the more expensive name brand.
