Obviously 400 degree plates are going to be hot, but does the handle get hot? Do you need a glove like some others offer?

Have been using this product for over a year - handle does not get hot. Works great

I don't have a glove for it. I also don't use it at 400 degrees. That's too hot for my hair. I'm usually at 300 and the handle is just fine. Hope that helps!

It's too fragile for direct heat in my opinion. And the handle would be quite hot. Not meant for that.

I don't think it gets past 400 degrees. I bent the element to fit a brinkmann electric grill and with a little modification it works for me.

It is fine at 400-425 degrees. I seasoned it once at 500 Degrees and the little yellow plug scorched a little and popped out after removing. So far the coating on the handle has held up fine though.

The mug will hold up to heat and the handle remains cool. However if your knuckles touch the outside while holding, it'll burn. I tested with spiced cider.

It can get a bit warm. I keep a flat pot holder, kitchen cloth close. But, I wouldn't trade this wok for any of those with the screwed on handle (or any other wok, really). No moving parts, solid handle, solid feel.

The handles can become hot. If just heating up something they are fine. But if something takes a while to cook I do need to use a pot holder

yes you can. There is a silicone logo on the handle, but it should handle high heat or if in doubt remove it. There is no max temp that I think would be an issue. It is made of carbon steel, so it can handle 600 degrees for sure

The handle is also made of cast iron. I have not had it get too hot to touch, if that is what you are wondering.

I am not 100% sure, would have to read the owner's literature. I recommend checking the manufacturer's web site. The only possible issue would be the handles, but I'm thinking they are able to take 400 degrees.

Yes, the handles get hot because they are not plastic or rubber coated including the sides of the pans. They cook evenly and are beautiful and so it is a trade off I guess. You just need a towel or pot holder handy before grabbing anything. If this type of pan is something you really want, you will get used to using them. I have no regrets with my purchase.

I have had no problems with the handle. It doesn't get hot and hasn't loosened at all. Please note however that when I tighten the upper portion to the bottom I do not use the handle for leverage. I grip the body of both the top and bottom to tighten. Also what is difficult to see in the pictures is that the black plastic on the handle is made of two pieces which run vertically along both sides of the handle and leaves a strip of the metal exposed. It doesn't seem to affect usability though. It's just something that was not apparent from the photos.

No, but the handle had no problem holding up to the 450 degree heat while wrapped in a towel and heavy duty foil while seasoning in the oven.

It wont get too hot, but hot enough to burn anything. This is a very safe and reliable product,and will keep your hands warm through any situation

Yes, but you will not like the results. Its bottom is very flat and will absorb much of the heat from a warming plate, however the handle will also absorb that heat and the heat from the liquid in the mug. Net effect is that the mug becomes too hot to hold by the handle. If you are wearing gloves or wrap the handle with something then it obviously won't be as much of an issue.

No, The handle does not get hot. The cook ware is the best yet and does not require high heat setting to cook with. I therefore save energy and less cooking time with his products. I am very pleased with this cookware and the set I purchased which is well worth it.

The handles are rated to 350 degrees (F). Both handles are removable -- the smaller handle is removed with a screwdriver, the larger by turning the metal ring at the end of the handle.
