How customer reviews and ratings work

Customers say

Customers like the size, origin, grip, appearance and performance of the tong utensil. For example, they mention it's well-designed, strong enough to grip whole sheet pans and that it'll grip without slipping. That said, some complain about the lock.

Customers like the performance of the tong utensil. They mention that it works beautifully, is tough and durable, and gets the job done. They say it's very useful and works as desired to grasp meat.

"...I've had mine for years with no rust and no problems with the mechanism...." Read more

"...Pretty useless when you want to store in a drawer, jar on the counter, or run through the dishwasher. Returning and will buy some locally." Read more

"...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...." Read more

17 customers mention17 positive0 negative

Customers like the grip of the tongs. They say the scalloped, gripper edges hold on to food better than any other tong they've used, and the togs are strong enough to grip whole sheet pans or even cast iron pans. The feel/tension is perfect for precision handling without stressing your wrist from repeated use. The tong head is nicely rounded to grip food, and has a good solid feel in the hand. The spring mechanism holds us with use, and is fairly tight, which they prefer over floppy tong.

"...A timeless design that works well." Read more

13 customers mention13 positive0 negative

Customers like the size of the tongs. They mention that it's well-made, perfect length, and takes up less space on the counter and in the drawer. Some say that the 9-inch tong is good for finess or light duty work, while the 12-inch togs are good for medium-duty work.

"I love these tongs for their simplicity and sturdiness. The 12” tongs fit my hand well...." Read more

"...9 inch is good for finess or light duty work, 12 inch is standard, and 14 inch is a little unwieldy, but great for moving very large cuts of meat,..." Read more

51 customers mention15 positive36 negative

Customers are dissatisfied with the lock of the tongs. They mention that it's not smooth, it'll never lock, and that the locking feature is very small and hard to get to.

"...Also, the locking mechanism does not lock. See photo. These tongs are nothing like the heavy Edlund tongs I have owned for a decade...." Read more

"This tong is just about perfect. And it has a lock. The 9" I ordered, same brand, does not...." Read more

MISS PRINGLE

Excellent!

Reviewed in the United States on April 5, 2014

Verified Purchase

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.

DO NOT BUY/NOT EDLUND TONGS

Reviewed in the United States on January 13, 2023

Verified Purchase

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.

A well-made American tool!

Reviewed in the United States on September 15, 2017

Verified Purchase

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.

Good Product

Reviewed in the United States on February 6, 2021

Verified Purchase

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

Great tong with lock

Reviewed in the United States on October 2, 2023

This tong is just about perfect. And it has a lock. The 9" I ordered, same brand, does not. Since I'm reviewing the 12", it's just about perfect for what you need a tong to do.
