Product review (5 stars): Two tongs UP!
I really like these kitchen tongs!  The silicone on both ends is very firm, but it has just enough 'softness' to give a good grip.  They are lightweight yet feel strong enough to handle any kitchen job I can think of.  Of course, you can pull out the tab at the end to lock them.  But the BEST part is the FEET!  The spoon rest can get crowded on my stove, so I really love the ability to put these down wherever it's most convenient.  I have another pair of tongs that feels like the same quality, but they also cost twice as much as these and don't have silicone or feet.

I bought these at a discount to give a review.  I know that turns some people off, but I'm a long time Amazon shopper who depends on valid, honest reviews for 99.9% of my purchases (at full price), so integrity in reviews means a lot to me.  If I have any trouble with them over time, I'll update this review.
