"MaxTemp" Hot Handle Mitt is made of heavy-duty Pyrotex, which resists scorching and burning to 450 degrees. Ideal as an all purpose handle mitt where safety is important. Also suitable for using outdoors when cooking on the BBQ. The Max Temp features heavy cotton batting and a steam barrier for ultimate heat protection. The thick terry lining protects from heat without sticking to the handle. It comes single-packed, not a pair.
Protect your hands from hot pot handles with this slip-on handle mitt. From Lodge, maker of rugged cast-iron cookware, the mitt features heavy-duty Pyrotex fabric on the exterior, along with a scorch-proof coating. Inside, a thick terry lining feels comfortable against the skin, and thick cotton batting between the two layers adds further heat and steam protection. Heat-resistant up to 450 degrees F, the Max Temp mitt fits over stainless or cast-iron handles, indoors or at the barbecue, and comes in basic black to match any décor. --Ann Bieri

fit right over handle:
My husband uses it every time he cooks with the skillet. The handle mitt fits perfectly!
Saves my hands from hot pans!:
This is a good pot handle cover. A little short for different pans but perfect for the cast iron!
Not so great at protecting hand for more than a few seconds.:
If you're using the Lodge skillet as a serving piece, the cover works well to prevent a dinner guest from grabbing the hot handle and burning themselves. If you're planning on using the cover as a pot holder to protect your hand from heat while you're serving, you better server really fast. After a few seconds, the heat transfers through the mitt, and it's painful to keep holding on.
Does what it is supposed to do:
It fits the cast iron ebelskiver pan that I bought perfectly. It does not get scorched, it is thick enough. I use it once a week on Sat when I use my ebelskiver pan. That's it. So far so good. No complaints.
