I dont the locks , my favorite is the winco stainless steel, heavy duty
I bought a pair of tongs that got replaced for two reasons. The silicone tips were bulky and if I held them near the hinge to avoid heat, I pinched myself because there was no gap when closed. Replaced with stainless steel tongs from a restaurant supply store in town.
Misleading headline. Says this is about grill tongs.
i don’t regularly watch these test videos for the drama, but I loved the beer plot twist.
Absolutely incredible, thank you. If only there also existed a vegan version.
What about best tongs for nonstick pans?
Cool
This show is always on PBS it sucks
I bought my Oxo tongs in 1998 or 1999. They’re still going strong, actually they look as good as the silicone grip ones I bought a year or two ago (to use in nonstick pans). I just love them and use them all the time. They’re just designed perfectly and they are great when you have joint problems (I have autoimmune arthritis as well as EDS), well designed, good grip, not too tight etc. What a fab product! 👏👏👏😊
Ok. Anything.
4:01 bridget lancaster opening beer with winner oxo tongs
Adam: i didnt include that in the testing
Love the channel! Can you PLEASE test and review STAINLESS STEEL Baking Sheet pans? Seems like there aren't that many available and many people do want an alternative to aluminum with a natural surface. Thanks much!
I can’t understand why a tong cost 20 bucks after the industrial revolution.
Best tongs for the money, 2 pack, one 9in and one 12in, $3.98 at Samsclub. Look almost exactly like the Oxo except no locking mechanism. I personally don't mind that but if you do you could alway use a heavy rubber band
Who needs tongs when you have chopsticks 😂 but chopsticks can’t open beers tho 😢
I MUST DISAGREE, I love the tongs that lock and unlock when pointed up or down.
omg I was just about to go out and buy a new bottle opener… I can’t wait to try my tongs!!
9 inch tongs, sounds like a heavy metal band! Lol
Control and precision, just love that
11.99 from where? Are prices fixed across all vendors now?
I always like Adam. He's funny and sincere with his sakes pitch. Keep him around.
Cool Beans! Thanks!
holy crap does OXO sponsor this series? you recommend all their products.
This is Great! .. I recently bought one too.
Nine Inch Tongs:
I wanna cook you like and animal
I wanna grill you from the i n s i d e
I’ve had my Oxo Good Grips tongs for about 10 years and they are still going strong. I use them almost daily.
I love OXOs products.
I have my daughter's baby bottle tongs I used sterilizing her bottles. she is in her 30's now, I still use them around the kitchen for cooking.
Good job on the ending. It was both educational and funny.
More oxo sponsored content?
I think the Shoulin monk tongs are the best. My bare hands
I like the "automatic" tongs. You can lock them and set them down one-handed, without changing your grip.
Why do we even bother watching anymore it’s always oxo lol, they make good stuff
Those are okay, but my 9' tongs are better for larger items.
It's not really an equipment review without Lisa. Nobody explains things as well.
You can also use tongs for basting
I'm now convinced that Bridgette has a chilled 6-pack under the counter for all of these testing videos.
Interesting. Oxo. Again.
tongs are so derpy
so are you also suggesting that 9 inch tongs are the best size? or are there separate reviews for different lengths?
Sorry guys, but I don't agree. I know you tested it, but I got asdome really good ones online
Drink the beer, Adam.
