Nothing is more defeating is having your prize steak slip out of the tongs, have the dog grab it and sprint away. NOT WITH THESE tongs. The grab the item you are cooking firmly but not so to damage the item be cooked.
They don't open very wide. Can't get them around a good sized Tri-tip roast, or anything big? Not sure why they don't open wider?
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry to hear you are having trouble with your tongs. On the end of the tongs, there is an indicator showing "locked" and "unlocked" positions. Please move the metal tip to the "unlocked" position to completely open your tongs.
Our Support team is sending you a follow-up email now. Thanks!

Use them for all sorts grilling. Works on meat & veggies.
Best tongs ever. Strong and easy to use (for my medium hand size). I like the locking mechanism at the end simply has to move side to side instead of having to pull it out. I was not expecting them to be as long as they are, but I love it now that I have used it. I can quickly grab and work with any items on the grill without having to be over the grill. I have already ordered a second pair.
