Bring safety and style to any kitchen with this clever pot-handle mitt on duty. Designed to fit snugly over most standard-size pot or pan handles, the durable, lightweight unit protects hands from fresh-off-the-stovetop fry pans, skillets, and skillet grills. Its special oblong design ensures that hot cookware can be transferred safely and comfortably, while still offering superior heat protection. Thoughtfully designed, the mitt features a cotton-canvas exterior, which comes treated with color-fast dyes that stand up to repeated washing, and a 100-percent cotton-terry-cloth lining, which conforms to British heat-penetration standards. Both the cotton terry and the canvas benefit from the protection of Teflon, which effectively resists stains and spills. A flexible, non-permeable nylon barrier (sandwiched between the insulation) prevents penetration of steam, water, and grease for added protection. A mitt without this barrier becomes damp and heat will immediately pass through (with grease, this will happen every time it gets used before it's washed). The sleek mitt stores flat with other pot holders for compact convenience in a cupboard, pantry, or pullout drawer beneath the oven. Alternately, use its convenient loop for hanging on storage hooks. The handle mitt measures approximately 3-1/2 by 7-1/5 by 1/2 inches.
Le Creuset Hi-tech Kitchen Textile Handle Mitt, Cobalt, 100% cotton terry cloth with a cotton lining that is tested against and conforms to British heat penetration standards. A flexible, non-permeable nylon barrier is sandwiched between the insulation and prevents penetration of steam, water and grease. A glove without this barrier becomes damp and heat will immediately pass through (with grease, this will happen every time the glove is used before it is washed). Canvas construction is tough enough to stand up to the heat of the kitchen and light enough to be comfortable. Fast dyed to hold its color even after repeated washing. Both the cotton terry and the canvas are protected by TEFLON which effectively repels stains and water.
