I was sent a set of these to try out. They come in a set of 2. In mine was a green and purple pot holder. They are close to a normal cloth pot holders in size and thickness. Only some of my cloth ones are thinner now since I have used them so much, and I do not see that being an issue with these pot holders from Commerce Solutions.
Sadly I have already lost one of my pot holders. My mother seen it and well she is all about purple! I have become attached to mine and will be getting more of them in the near future since they are so versatile.
I have used these pot holders to pull pans out of the over. I have used them to bring dishes heated up in the microwave. I have also use them as a resting place for my hot pans. They also make great cooling pads for pies. At first when I was using them as a way to pull hot pans out of the over I figured it would be more difficult to control the pans with these pot holders. I actually had more control because of how well the keep the pans from slipping from your grip. They are extremely flexible and go right back to their normal shape after use. These pot holders can be used to open jars as well. They bend over the top of the lid easy and provide a very nice non-slip grip on the top of the jar.
In my house I have a fold out arm on my cabinet that offers an added shelf area if I need. Well it is held up by two hinges that have seen better days. They have started to show the dropping affect a little bit. I have more then once set a dish on this ledge and it has slowly creeped off and proceeded to make it a mopping situation. Since I have gotten these pot holders that is no longer an issue. They grip and hold whatever I put on them in place without any more trips to the mop bucket.
