Title: Excellent!
Review: These tongs are perfect! If it weren't for a product review on tongs in "Cook's Illustrated," I would probably never have looked at this brand. "Cook's" says Edlund's the best, and they are! They are sturdy stainless steel, close without pinching, and have the right amount of grip in the "business" end. I am glad that I ordered four different pairs: 9" (very convenient size for breakfast sausage, bacon, and other small tasks), 12" regular grip, 12" Gripper (flat end--fabulous for getting under more tender foods), and 16" (great for barbecue). All of them open wide enough to pick up larger items, such as a chuck roast, whole chicken, large fish, and they have the dexterity to handle very small items, including small jars and ramekins. The locking mechanism is convenient. The pull-tab is not large and imposing, and when the tongs are in the open position, the tab all but disappears at the end of the handle--doesn't get in the way. Other reviewers have said that they wish the locking tab would slide easily in and out, so as they cook, they can just flip the tongs to unlock and lock again. I can see how this would be a boon to a cook, but these tongs do not accommodate this desire--the locking tab is tighter than this would allow. However, for me, this is not an issue. (Perhaps, they'll loosen in time, as one reviewer stated.) These tongs wash up well by hand or in the dishwasher. And, they are made in the USA. If you are looking for a really good, functional pair of tongs that won't rust, fall apart, pinch your hand, or otherwise fail, try these. You won't be disappointed.

Title: BEST QUALITY TONGS!
Review: BEST QUAILTY TONGS! These are for a gift! I have had these same tongs for YEARS! They are very well made supoer sturdy, have the best tong head because they are nicely rounded to grip food (too many are flat). I would buy these again and again! GREAT VALUE!

Title: A well-made American tool!
Review: This is a very nice product! It's heavy-duty, but not something you'd use to change a truck tire. It works smoothly, does not require an excessive amount of pressure to close, and the tips meet evenly. You can open it one-handedly, and close it the same, but you kind of need something to catch the release tab on to pull it out. Don't think the latter would come up much though.Usually, I wait a bit to review something, but I did have a chance to use this today and was impressed. Mind you it was a limited workout involving some bacon strips, but it functioned flawlessly! One cool thing I discovered was that in the locked/closed position, the jaws were open wide enough to handle bacon! Most excellent!One oddity though: It says "Elund" in the description and on my order, but the tongs have "SYSCO" stamped on them along with a bunch of other information, like "stainless", "heavy duty", the part number, the patent number, "locking tongs" (in case you couldn't figure out what they were), and "Made in USA"! Not complaining, they could say "Purple Pirate" on them and I'd still be happy.Great product! Glad I bought it.

Title: DO NOT BUY/NOT EDLUND TONGS
Review: I purchased the 9” and 12” “Edlund” locking tongs. The 9” tongs do not lock, are not EDLUND, and are not made in America. The tongs are labeled Winco and made in India. See photo. The 12” tongs are marked Edlund, Made in USA, BUT they feel thin, look like they went through a war, and squeak. Also, the locking mechanism does not lock. See photo. These tongs are nothing like the heavy Edlund tongs I have owned for a decade. Amazon, this supplier needs to be removed from your site. They are ripping-off all of us. I will order from Edlund directly and return this trash to Amazon.

Title: Good Product
Review: Overall, this is a really good sturdy product for a home cook. Good ergonomics, the correct weight, versatile and well-designed. Because of some deep channeling on the inside of the handle it’s a little bit difficult to clean but not so much that you should be deterred from buying it. The locking mechanism is nothing special but who cares as long as it remains durable. Overall, I am extremely pleased with the product and use it regularly as a “go to” tool
