Product Description: Every cook needs a good pair of tongs and these from Calphalon work exceptionally well for so many types of meal prep. The soft-touch handles won't slip from your grip while the nonstick tong surface is wider than most others. Use them for lifting and turning steaks or chops, chicken breasts or wings, seafood and grilled veggies. They are heat-resistant up to 400 degrees, and won't scrape or damage cookware.
Amazon.com Review: Transfer asparagus, deli meat, or breakfast sausage from here to there with Calphalon’s nylon serving tongs. Durably constructed, the sturdy tool won’t stain and resists temperatures up to 400 degrees F. A comfortable Santoprene handle adds softness for a cushioned, slip-free hold. The nylon material won’t scratch nonstick or hard-anodized surfaces and is dishwasher safe--although hand washing is recommended for best long-term results. Utensil measures 11-1/2 by 3-1/2 by 1-3/4 inches and can be hung for easy storage. -- Amy Arnold

Rating: - Excellent for what I need.
The rubber grip is great. I use the tongs mostly for lasagna noodles and they are the best I've had for that. I do see what some other reviewers say about the tongs bending a bit.

I wasn't sure about buying this item because of the bad reviews I read here but then decided to take the risk. I'm glad I bought it. I like Calphalon products a lot so far. All I have by this company is great. This product works really well. I will definitely recommend it. This product doesn't seem very durable but it's ok for what I paid for it. I wanted to buy another of this one for later (when the one I have wore out) but it's not available at the momment.

Rating: - Not very strong
Maybe I was applying too much pressure but these tongs bent everytime I used them to pick something up. For the record, I did not use them to cook so there was no wild variation in temperature.
The kicker was after a month of use they fell on the kitchen floor and one arm broke in 3 pieces.
Rating: - Terrible product
These tongs are flimsy, and can't pick up food very well. The nylon design bends in attempts to pick up food without actually contributing the strength of the grip therefore things frequently slip out. The design of these also limit the size of food you can pick up as it doesn't really accomodate for larger items. The tongs also melt easily.
