Do the red gloves have less texture on the area holding dishes than the blue ones, or is it my imagination?

The biggest thing I noticed with the red gloves, was the sizing- which seems to be way off because they are much, much larger than any of the other size Mediums I've had. As far as the texture goes, it seems that there's the same amount of texture, but the overall red glove is more slippery/glossy- & doesn't wear in as well, making them harder to handle dishes. I've had True Blues (Med.) in just about every color & love them because of their durability! But if/when I order them again, I will not order red- just to be on the safe side.

Thanks for taking the time to answer. Now that you mention it, the red gloves are bigger. I think I'm with you and will not re-order the red. Just glad that someone else out there experienced the same thing and that I'm not crazy! Thanks again!

Thanks for taking the time to respond. I wonder if they've changed the way the make the gloves. That would be disappointing.

I don't think so but they seem to fit larger then the previous ones i have ordered.

For me, if I dry them a bit while I put them away they do fine, but if I am lazy and leave them in the dishwasher with a couple drops on them, they do rust in that spot. I was a bit dissapointed with that but I still love the set, really!

They are fine in the dishwasher and the colour doesn't seem to come off. It may however come off eventually!

It's probably an inbetween or like a blood cherry red color.... but all the same they are amazing dishes I got 2 sets.

I have not noticed the gloves picking up dirt. You would need to watch them if they started changing colors and wash them. I would not hesitate to use them myself.

I wasn't happy with the recent Bluettes that I purchased, mainly because of the lack of texture on the hand area. I found I dropped things much more and, consequently, had some breakage. The True Blues are just as thick as the Bluettes and have a little texture on the hand portion, which seems to make all the difference. Plus, they come in fun colors!

The dishes are stoneware so they aren't super smooth but I really don't find them bad. All the stoneware I've had have had a certain amount due to the firing they go through. I really love the dishes.

No. But because of the peculiarities of my kitchen layout, I have to carry 400 degree pans for a distance of about four feet and these gloves work perfectly. If these gloves get stained, hand wash them. I put mine through the washing machine and they shrank slightly -- but not enough to prevent me from using them!!

They have plenty of room inside. They are not a tight fitting glove. More like leather pot holder with fingers.

I never really noticed. Why does that matter? You're working out and they feel comfortable and properly cushion your hand. The only thing I've seen is that the edges around the wrist area absorb a little sweat. I use the natural coloured one and would not have noticed this as much with the black gloves but I still like the colour I chose. :)

The dish is not slippery. It is just large. I'm guessing that users are trying to "palm" the dish, as if it were a basketball. Also, the lid does not lock into place. Carrying the dish with your palm up will eliminate and chance of it slipping out of small hands.

It looks there is some sort of finish around the edges. A question for the manufacturer I guess. Mine are slightly larger than the cookie sheet and curl up a bit on the edges without problem. I do really like them. Clean up is a breeze.

I have a different pattern but the cup is sky blue so the pattern on the dishes are probably sky blue.

Hi Erin, The detail is a dark brownish red. It is not very noticeable on the plates though, more of a light accent. I have multiple sets of the dishes in two separate houses and I love them! Hope this helps. (:

It's not the same consistency as dish cloth, not as limp, it scrubs better, than a dish cloth. Also i wash these in dishwasher.

Obviously it would have helped if you had mentioned WHICH blue ones. As it is, there are several different oven and grill gloves made of woven heat resistant materials (NOMEX and KEVLAR) with silicone coatings and liner. Hard to compare any two without buying both. For the most part, the main difference is probably just the brand and individual designs. There ARE junk ones out there, like the 'magic glove' that pops up on DailySteals and other closeout sites that doesn't use the better heat resistant material and often end up with melting 'silicone' when used on pots or pans right out of the oven.
