Quantity:
Of the wide variety of tongs we tested, these are our clear favorites. First, they are well made from thick 20 gauge (0.0375") stainless steel with a sturdy spring and a robust hinge.
Second, they have a hinge lock for compact storage; simply tug on the end loop to lock them shut, and press to release. The secure locking mechanism won't spring open accidentally in a drawer or dishwasher.
Third, the pincers have scalloped edges and a gently curved profile for a good grip, particularly on rounded or irregular shapes, from ramekins to lobsters.
The 12" tongs are suitable for everyday use in the kitchen, while the 16" tongs are great for grilling outdoors. They have the length needed to keep your hands well away from the heat and flames when reaching for something on the grill.
