How durable are the handles and do they stay open during use?

I've been using my cup now almost daily to drink my tea out of and have had no problem with the handles being unstable in comparison to any other of the cook/boil cups I've used. Hope that helps u ;)

They are very, very sturdy handles. Impossible to break. Heavy metal handles.

The handles on the bag are very securely fastened. The handle/pull mechanism has held up really well for me. I have even put items on top of my bag, increasing the weight, and it's has performed really well. I love my bag!!

They seem solid so far, though I use mostly only two of them for solid food so I don't know how they hold when it comes to contact with water and rust. Mine don't have sharp edges, and the handle doesn't bend when scooping food.

I have had my set about five months now. I've not had an issue with the handles getting hot. I love my set!

I have not had any issues with the handles; however the construction of this item is substandard. I'll be happy if I get 10 years out of this item.

I've had a little rusting in the details of handles but not in all the silverware, just a few pieces. They get run through the dishwasher almost daily and I've had them for almost a year. Still worth it for me.

the handles stay cool, if you can see the picture of the handle where it goes from silver to black---the black part is rubber or silicone so it can be handled. hope this helps.

Fairly durable and sturdy. Handles are well made. No issues here. I recommend this product without hesitation.

We use this in our store, and haven't had any problems with the handle coming apart.

I've only used it a couple times. I think it stayed open well enough and was glad I bought it. It should last a long time.

Yes, the handles are on pretty strong and are comfortable. As long as you dont plan on swinging it around with full force, you should be good.

They are heat resistant. The handles are actually very nice with a comfortable grip.

They are not extremely durable but can hold their own. I was able to cut some holes in the bottom for drainage with a razor blade but had to be careful around the holes afterwards because the tray has a tendency to follow a cut or tear until it hits an edge. Durability I give a 7 out if 10.

Handles together =open. One thing about these that is a problem is they don't close very tightly to lift dirt out of hole

When using them, the handles will stay together, so it is not a problem. I suppose you could use some sort of clip if you're worried about it.

I have two of these, both of which have have taken some abuse, and had no issues with the handle.
