Product Information

Level up your heat protection with heavy-duty oven gloves like our innovative heat shield gloves and long-cuff gauntlets. Specially developed from heat and flame resistant fibres, with added silicone dots for a secure grip, our heat shield range is designed to withstand temperatures of up to 350°C, offering extra safety whether you’re cooking over a hot stove in the kitchen or outside in a pizza oven. No slip-ups Double oven gloves that are connected and slip over each hand to make carrying large pots and pans easier Budget and aesthetics aside, the main things to consider when shopping for an oven mitt are length, material, and heat-resistance. If you're buying only one set, figuring out the best size for you boils down to comfort, where you cook most, and, to some degree, the style and location of your oven.

Purpose Do you plan on handling chunky enamel dishes that require two hands? Will you be in the kitchen baking or outside managing the BBQ with tongs? Choose a mitt that is comfortable for your needs. Material You can find oven mitts made out of natural and synthetic material, including cotton, silicone and neoprene. Some materials have better heat-resistance, while others, such as silicone, are also excellent at repelling water and stains. These require hand-washing, which is a little less convenient and slightly more time-consuming. However, they come in a set of two, and you can choose your favorite from four colors. Plus, their smaller size makes them easier to store in an already-crowded kitchen drawer. They’re heat-resistant up to 400°F and are lined with cotton and insulation for heat protection with comfort. Longer oven mitts — typically 13 inches or more — are ideal if you have a deep oven (particularly one that's under your range, as it can be awkward to bend and pull out cookware) and if you tend to grill often. They generally cover your hands, wrists, and a good portion of your forearm. The downside is that they can be less comfortable to wear. If you tend to use the range top and microwave more, a standard-size oven mitt or pot holders will likely give you plenty of coverage.

Style Enhance your kitchen by choosing a style and colour that flatters your current decor and goes well with other kitchen linen. These extra-long oven mitts from DoMii are the best option for someone who wants a little extra heat protection while cooking. Specifically, the cuff on each mitt is 19.5 inches long, making it elbow-length. Cotton and synthetic oven mitts can typically go into the washing machine for easy cleaning, says Alexakis. Silicone oven mitts can generally be wiped clean. Make sure you read the manufacturer’s instructions to determine the best way to clean your oven mitts. Whether you’re cooking a Sunday roast or baking bread, hot tins and trays need handling with care. Quality double oven gloves and oven mitts protect your hands from dangerous heat, helping you carry on cooking without worrying about things hotting up too much.

Material is largely based on personal preference, whether it's all-silicone, all-cotton, or cotton with a silicone grip; most feature a cotton lining for comfort and some have polyester-fill insulation. As for heat-resistance, both silicone and cotton oven mitts generally rate to 500 degrees Fahrenheit, give or take 25 degrees on either end of the thermometer. That'll cover you for kitchen cooking, but grillmasters may want an oven mitt that can withstand a higher temperature, especially if you have a smoker grill or smoker attachment. How We Selected Oven mitts are available in different types to suit different needs. Some of the most common ones include: While the main purpose of an oven mitt is to protect your hands when transferring hot kitchenware, there are plenty of other benefits they can offer depending on which one you choose. Consider these features and whether they are important to your needs:
