I have silicone gloves, and they handle heat well, but they are awkward to grasp anything because they do not bend well. Are these extra flexible?

I think they are somewhat bulky, but I have not had any trouble grasping a pot or pan out of the oven with them. They are not stiff. You could also try the Ove Glove...it's like a glove, not a mitten and that handles the heat well also.

I'm not sure about "extra" but I'm able to grab pot lids and handles with them just fine.

I can't compare them to your silicone gloves, but these mits seem flexible to me, especially compared to Le Creuset "cool tool" which they say can be used as a pot holder. The best part is they don't have any thread stitches to burn which then leaves seams open. These are the best I've had and I recommend them.

My unit doesn't bend easily. It is very rigid and has a good handle to grip. I use it a lot, and I've never had an issue.

They are not at all flexible, quite the opposite. They will break even at the slightest bending. How ever there is a solar tape that is much better for what your asking. Unless you can make a large multi sided hexagon shape.

I use them in my RV for microwaving food. I bought them specifically for that and as of over nearly two years they have been fine. I have no idea how you could bend one.

They are better than Ove Gloves. They resist higher temps and the grips are better.

I don't fid them to be all that flexible. I wear them at night to keep my wrists from curling while I sleep. Hope this helps.

No; they are not that flexible. They're made of a hard plastic that has a little "give", but only a very little.

They are coated in plastic and don't get too hit for my caloused hands. But if you don't cook a lot, they may get a bit warm for you. Keep a hotpad nearby and you'll be fine.

They are flexible. If you look in the product photos, you will see a photo where both hands are balled up in "thumbs up" fists. There are a lot of silicone mitts you cannot do that way, but you can do our Super Flex Silicone Oven Mitts like that. We can do that because most of the mitt is designed to be thin enough to be really flexible. There are thicker raised areas (the circle and spokes) spread out in the main palm and thumb areas. These thicker raised areas are what normally make contact with the hot surfaces of pots and pans. But even the areas without the raised areas give really good heat resistance. Silicone is really that good at insulating. Add in the quilted comfort lining, and you have even more heat resistance. Hope that helps! :)

I don't know since I haven't used those. Have you tried the silicone version of these with them? If so them I would assume so.

They're very flexible. I think they might work well for you because I just get a gentle stretch - I wish they were bigger or firmer so I'd get a better stretch but they're fine.

The handles are hard and do not adjust but I use them either with my hands flat under the handle or I grip them. I use gloves when I garden and they are fine for me. I have a good sized hand with long fingers and have no trouble with these scoops.

They are standard thickness grip panels they are NOT the thin grips. I can put a micrometer to them in various places if you would like that kind of information. I have hands that require xxl gloves and they actually feel a little thinner than normal panels but they are not. I think that's because of a number of factors, the material, the pattern and the large scoop allowing dramatically easier access to the magazine release.

They will bend with the wrist. I use them for bench press and my wrists still bend back but the wraps add stability and take some of the strain off. I hope this was helpful.

Yes, they are flexible. I think they would work only for a short time. They work really good in front of our garage door, and I have one in my garage that soaks up the water on the car from the rain. Works great!!

Yes, these Silicone Heat Resistant gloves will fit VERY LARGE hands (I have large hands for a women and they are so large that I have to keep pulling at them to keep them from slipping off). They only go to the wrist. They work very well for oven use but I have not tried them when cooking on the grill yet. Hope this helps.

Hi, Just went to try these on to make sure, and they could be used on either hand, or both at the same time, when taking something heavy out of oven... They have the silicone on both sides of the glove, so you can use either glove on either right or left. :)
