Great gloves as long as you aren't using them for heavy-duty tasks; great for aquarium use
These are great gloves. I recommend them to others as long as you're using the right gloves for the right task.<br /><br />These are not heavy-duty gloves. They look fairly flimsy, and they are. If you're doing a lot of pulling or heavy lifting, you're going to rip these. For lunchroom use and other light tasks, these would be great. The material on these reminds me of really thin, office-style trash bags (not the stretchy kind but the plain, clear plastic kind).<br /><br />I use mine in a reef tank aquarium on top of smaller neoprene gloves. It keeps my arms dry when I'm reaching down into the tank, and I have the neoprene gloves too in case I accidentally grab something sharp. They work well for that task. I've used a dozen or so and have not had any leaks. However, I wouldn't try to move live rocks in my tank with these—they'd probably rip for that. But, the benefit of not having heavier-duty gloves is that you don't lose much precision or feeling because these gloves aren't really thick, so I can still tell which part of the coral (stone base or soft polyp, etc.) I'm picking up.<br /><br />For lighter tasks, these are great glove that I recommend to others.
