Review by Etude, 2010-08-11
I'm 6'4". I'm 200lbs. I'm a large person, and I have to shop for clothing in the XXL section, no matter where I shop. And these oven mitts made my hand look like a toddler trying on Paul Bunyan's older, taller brother's boxing gloves. In other words: too freaking huge. Not what you want when you may be holding onto something 400 degrees or hotter.
What's worse is the quality. Terrible stitching around the seams almost caused me a nasty burn when some of the heat from the pan I was holding got through them, which sort of defeats the purpose of silicone oven mitts in the first place, doesn't it?
So let's sum up: freakishly large as well as poorly made, sort of like the Frankenstein's monster of cooking gloves. Yeah, not very hot stuff indeed.

I'm an adult male who usually wears size L gloves, but I find this mitt to be too big for me. Other than the size it seems fine.

I'm sure this product works great for people with large hands but if you're petite or even have medium-sized hands, this product is more dangerous than safe. It's difficult to grip anything securely which can lead to more serious burns if you drop a pan/pot.

*Way* more flexible than the Orkas I tried out in a local kitchen store and slightly less expensive. With their cloth interiors, they seem to grip to your hand better, rendering a more secure feeling, all the while providing adequate thermal resistance. They're long enough to provide good distal forearm protection (better than our previous all cloth model) and easy to clean up, especially if you keep the inner linings grease free. I specifically purchased the 'electric blue' version to ensure compatibility with our electric oven and have not been disappointed (kidding... just KIDDING!(heh!))!

I like the traditional kind of oven mitt since the cloth is soft for the hand, but would also like a silicone mitt where cleaning is easy.
Voila! This mitt is my final answer. I have small hands (XS is the size for me usually) and I have no problem when I use this product.
