I have to admit I was a little apprehensive about buying these because of some of the comments about the lock feature, more specifically that the tongs would spring open by themselves with enough force to create a mess. I have been using them for about two weeks now, and they have stayed closed wherever I put them (stored in the crock, laying in a plate, in the drying rack, or simply on the counter). Even if they were to pop open on their own, I can't imagine too much mess, as the spring doesn't seem to hold a great deal of force.It did take a little bit to get used to locking feature. Even now I have to think about it, but if they don't open the first way I hold them, either up or down, I simply turn them the opposite direction and no problems.When cooking, I really like the point they come to. I wasn't sure I would at first because I thought they wouldn't get into the corners (I was used to tongs with silicone edges that I could smash into corners) but these get everywhere. I can even pick up a single leaf of spinach! To be fair, I do cook with cast iron so I don't have to worry about scratching the surface.The other thing I was concerned about was how hot they would get while using them; I did not want to need to use a potholder especially since I need to keep my eye on the cast iron itself. No problems there either, they stay nice and cool.My only wish would be that the tongs would open a bit wider than they do. I'm used to tongs that open a bit wider than my hand. These stop just short of my hand. So, instead of being able to grab the amount I'm used to with one swipe, I need to go back a second time. For me, a minor adjustment, but I do wish it were different.These tongs clean easily, feel sturdy so they should last a long time, and are a beautiful addition to my kitchen. Despite the cost, I'm very pleased with them and I highly recommend them!!

As others have pointed out, these are built solidly with excellent quality material, as is common with high end German products from reputable companies that are now manufactured in China for the lower cost.Some commenters prefer tongs that are locked and unlocked with a tab that is pushed in or pulled out at the end where the 2 arms are joined, but that requires using a second hand to move the tab. I prefer these because they can be locked/unlocked one handed. The mechanism is excellent. Bringing the tongs horizontal unlocks the arms. If unlocked, tilting the tips up only about 10-15 degrees above horizontal engages the lock. The maneuver is very easy to do once you know how it works.I wash these in a dishwasher, and occasionally after that the mechanism sticks. Perhaps this is caused by a subtle residue on the part that moves to control the lock/unlock action. So far this has been corrected easily by squeezing the tips of the arms together (in the lock position they are separated by a few mm) and shaking the tongs for a second or 2. Immediately the tongs work perfectly. It is only because of this minor, infrequent problem that I give the locking mechanism 4 stars, but overall rating is 5 stars.Update: I realized that these do NOT need to be washed in a dishwasher, at least the way I use them, because only the tips touch food. I clean those with a sponge. Since not going into the dishwasher, the minor sticking of the closure mechanism never occurs. I now rate the mechanism as 5 stars. Also, this saves room in the dishwasher.

I have been a long time fan and user of tongs for my cooking and these tongs are now top of mind and best in class. If you love searing as a cooking technique then you will love using these well designed tongs. As noted, they are entirely locked and opened using only one hand and using gravity. Pointing the tongs up and squeezing will lock them colosed and pointing them down and squeezing will open them. Yes, it's that simple!Other facts: when opened the the 9" inch tongs have a 3 3/4 inch width. The metal is a very solid steel and will not bend without applying an absurd amount of force. The metal is also non-magnetic, so don't try to hand it from your magnetic knife bar. It does have a loop to hand it from an S type hook. The loop is not part of the locking mechanism. I am also not sure how it actually locks and unlocks since I only see a spring inside the tongs for fully opening them. They are dishwasher safe.While premium priced, these tongs really deliver great value in terms of use and life expectancy.

Why do I have so many kitchen tongs? Because I find fault with each one. This Rosle kitchen tongs is the best one out there. I’ve literally stopped thinking of adding another set of tongs to my kitchen. This is it. The best one out there.

上向きで握ると閉じて、下向きで握ると開くトングです。便利で良いですが･･･・重たい・フライパンや鍋の内側に引っ掻き傷　が付いてしまうなどであまり使わなくなりました･･･ステンレス製や鉄製の鍋の方に向いてる気がします

I'm not a cooking person, I just bought this one as my friend recommendation.She said do not buy any tongs with a locking function because it will not working so won't be able to use sooner than the tong life span.She recommended me this brand because she is using over 15 years the one without locking function.I like the locking function so far hope it last long so I can use for a long time.

Buenas pinzas de cocina de acero. Se abren y cierran automáticamente. Se abren apretando las pinzas con las puntas hacia abajo y se cierran con las puntas de las pinzas hacia arriba. Es decir el mecanismo funciona por gravedad. De otra forma suelen cerrarse pero no hay forma de abrirlas.

Belle finition, pas de plastique ou silicone, ouverture/fermeture d'une main.Bref, parfait pour moi, bien sûr, un peu cher mais semble pouvoir durer éternellement, comme moi...
