Amazon.com Review: Nothing beats plump, sweet kernels of ripe corn-on-the-cob at a midsummer cookout. However, eating this American favorite often presents multiple challenges, including uncomfortably hot corn ends and a trail of warm butter and corn juice running from hands to elbows. To thwart these small annoyances, Swiss manufacturer Zyliss offers these brightly-colored corn holders. The two-pronged holders spear either end of the cob, allowing users to eat without scorched, greasy palms and avoid stains from dripping butter and juice.
The corn holders also interlock so users always have a complete pair. This design also provides for safe storage, preventing the sharp tools from poking unsuspecting hands fumbling about in a messy kitchen utensil drawer. These holders also resist rust and are dishwasher- safe. The set contains eight individual corn holders for four pairs. --Jessica Reuling

These are very sturdy and designed to couple together, so you don't have loose corn holders which get lost in drawers. A very good buy.

we purchased a set about 3 years ago. they have been through the dishwashwer many times and in childrens hands just as often. They work great, keep the corn secure, are great to store by interlocking and a breeze to clean. Well made too! so far these are the best ones we owned and i am ready to purchase a set for my sister.
Rating: - Perfect corn holders
I've been through so many different corn holders, it's not even funny! Some are difficult to get cleanly into the corn, others break, some don't provide a nice grip. These holders have it all! I love how they interlock in pairs so they don't get lost. They are nice and sharp and easy to push into the corn, and the ones I've had are going strong after a couple years with no breakage. Highly recommended!

Delicious corn with great corn holders. Does life get any better? Colors are bold; holds well; big enough for a man to like; the fact that they insert together for storage is a BIG plus.

...ON YOUR CORN.
I was pleasantly surprised when these corn holders arrived. THEY ARE HUGE! You can't tell from the photo or product description -- each is approximately 3 inches long: 1-inch metal prongs, plus 2-inch plastic handle.
My husband & I tried them out tonight. Though I've never been a fan of standard-sized corn holders (they often get loose and fall off), these gigantors actually work. The long duo-prongs stay put, and the big fat handles make it easy to enjoy a hot buttery ear without fear of burnt or messy fingers.
