COMPACT TONGS HANDLE BIG JOBS: These tongs may be mini, but they provide the grip, strength, and versatility of a full-size set. Their small size uniquely suits them for small hands, so kids can help with breakfast.NON-SLIP SILICONE GRIPS: Strips of non-slip silicone provide grip. Soft-touch silicone feels comfortable in hand, and prevents accidental slips while pulling breakfast off of the waffle maker. The soft-touch silicone will not scratch waffle irons.DURABLE SILICONE HEADS: BPA-free silicone tips are scratch-resistant, stain-resistant, and food-safe to create the best possible kitchen tool. Silicone is heat resistant up to 600 degrees Fahrenheit, so it can withstand the heat of the waffle iron.PULL RING LOCKS ARMS IN PLACE: Keep the tongs closed with the handy locking mechanism. Pull the ring to lock the tongs in the closed position, and push it in to release the arms. Locking mechanism ensure that tongs fit neatly in drawers.PERFECT FOR WAFFLES: Unique hooked end grabs the waffle between the squares to prevent slipping or dropping from waffle maker to plate.
