Does the job
Very nice, small and grippy which can be nice when removing delicate things. Easy to wash as well. Not the most heat resistant, need to put the pan back down pretty quick after removing it from the oven.

These are very cute and seem potentially useful. But in just one use I scalded my hand!
UPDATE: 27JULY2018: ( I really hate to post any negative reviews and it's a rarity for me to do so. But in the spirit of honest feedback I always express a true opinion. I need to make this addendum regarding this purchase though. I opened my email to find that the same day I posted a negative review based on my experience, I was issued a full refund for the Pinch Mitts, though I didn't request it. This in itself marks an impressive expression of integrity for a company and their products. I'm not sure if it was Swish or Amazon who initiated the refund, but either way it only reinforces my appreciation and confidence in all my purchases on Amazon and the companies they represent. You can buy with confidence knowing Amazon seems to always make things right even, as in this case, without asking! There was no request to change my review or delete it as well. When they say in their product description, "Money back guarantee" they weren't kidding.)I purchased a pair of full sized silicone oven mitts 4 years ago, and like them so much that in my review I noted that besides their excellent usefulness, they'll probably survive me as family heirlooms. They're flexible, extremely heat tolerant, comfortable and offer complete protection up to my lower arm. I'd seen these pinch mitts and thought they might be useful to have next to the stove for quick tasks, like removing a hot lid or sliding a hot oven rack out to check. They arrived today and I lost no time in testing them. and also lost no time in scalding my hand!The idea is sound and seems useful, but the execution, at least for me just isn't viable. By their very design, they cover just the ends of your fingers. If I thought they might possibly enable me to lift a pot handle, even a very small pot, it's just not happening. If you think you might be able to use this to carry a hot plate or bowl to the table, the limited design just won't allow that either, unless it's a plate whose edge will fit in your pinch grip. I thought, well, it's at least at it's best when sliding out oven racks. That's exactly what I was trying to do last night, slide out a rack in a large toaster oven, but the coverage is so minuscule that I scalded the top of my hand on on the upper opening of the oven. The silicone is very thin comparatively with no additional padding or protection. So while silicone is great at resisting heat, These are so thin that you don't want to be holding onto a hot surface more than a brief time. In short, they're cute and seem like a good idea. But I don't plan to use these again. Even if only lifting a hot pot lid, you know that likely there will be steam rushing out, so especially if you're moving quickly, with nothing covering most of your hand and all of your wrist and arm you could easily suffer a steam burn. I would return these, but I used points from my Prime card to buy it and don't think they will restore those points. So I wasted 10 dollars. I am ecstatic about full sized silicone oven mitts. So by all means compare and do buy this. But I can't encourage any serious cook to consider buying these. They have little to offer and if anything I believe put you at greater risk for burns or injuries.

Easy and non-clunky heat mitts
I hate traditional oven mitts because my hands are on the smaller side, which leaves a gap/extra room at the end of mitts.When I got an air fryer it was impossible to pick up a tray through the small door without scooping under the dish with my mitt because the extra room at the end wouldn’t let me grasp the tiny trays - this left my arm burnt once and several items on the floor for my dog due to my lack of mobility 🙃These mitts fixed that issue! I can get in, grab whatever I need, and back out without lava-hot meatballs flying to the floor. Love them.

Cute and small so be aware
If your hands are large you might have a hard time with these little gloves. They work for what they were made for but they are really small. They are easy to clean too so no problems there. Air dry or towel them only. They are easily storable due to being so small. All around they are useful if you can fit them on.

Air fryer safety
These are perfect for getting my wire racks out of the air fryer. No pot holder gloves or slippery pot holders necessary.

Not that heat resistant
Not very heat resistant. Can't hold hot things for very long.

Great for quick and dextrous holds; so easy to clean!
Yep. They're smaller than regular hot pads -- that's why "Mini" is in the title! Roomy for my hands actually. I keep them on the oven handle as recommended for easy access. Great for hot lids, pans out of the toaster oven, cookie sheets, and things you don't have to hold for long. Yes, if you need to grab the cast iron pan or big casserole dish and hold for a while, grab your big, non-mini, heating pads!My hands are often in and out of the water when I am in the kitchen and these are so much better than slipping my wet hands into a fabric hot pad and I don't have to worry about them getting dirty because they clean up with a rinse!

Broken already
One of them are broken. Don’t recommend the product. For the price spent I expected it to last longer

Works
They're cute and work alright but don't hold anything for too long as they pick up heat pretty quick. Sometimes I double them if I need to hold a smaller item for a longer time and that works fine. Not the best grip though considering their size, which sometimes worries me as I handle big, heavy items, and you have to be more careful not to get your arms and wrists burnt. Best for people with smaller hands.
