Questions & Answers
These work well with Domino's pan pizzas and Little Caesars pan pizzas, which I've tried. Anything that is flat and doesn't have a lip will fall because these won't grip it. I'd say the grip's lip is about an inch wide, and the handle has a spring to it.
Not sure. These appear to be aluminum in construction. On a standard pan, they're fine. I haven't tried them in a cast-iron skillet yet. I'm not sure they'd be able to lift the pan with their hands alone.
Yes, you can use it with aluminum that is 26x18 inches in size, but be careful when carrying it.
I don't see why this couldn't be used as a second handle for a cast iron skillet if it wasn't used to lift the entire skillet. br>However, it is cast aluminum, and any cast material can develop a weak spot that will give way under a heavy load. br>With this tool, I've had no trouble lifting 17-inch pizzas.
Selected User Reviews For Winco Premium Pizza Pan Gripper, Cast Aluminum
They don't make me happy. The chipping metal coating was the first thing I noticed. I didn't want that to end up on my client's pizza, but it wasn't a major issue for me. Sure, they can hold a deep dish pan securely, but the design is so awkward: imagine holding scissors out in front of you and then bending your wrist down to point them at the ground. The handle is fine for holding the pizza down low, such as from the bottom rack of a low oven, but holding the pan up high or straight in front of you, as you would when taking a pan out of a real pizza oven, causes an awkward kink in your wrist or necessitates having your elbow way up in the air. You can turn it around like other stainless steel pan grippers and put the flat part inside the pan rather than outside the lip, but this crushes the delicate high crust around the rim of a deep dish pan. They appear to be only good for picking things up or holding things at waist level or low to the ground, like a blacksmith forging a sword, not for picking things up or holding things up on a service counter or out of a tall commercial pizza oven. I'm going to order the stainless steel vertical pan grippers, which are much better, and I'm going to return these - It's a bad design that doesn't work. Furthermore, the grippers have a foul odor, to the point where they stink! A handful of old coins has a distinct odor. I'm guessing it's made of nickel-plated aluminum. Vertical grippers made of stainless steel or nothing at all. This product's functionality would be greatly enhanced by a slightly different design.
I can't tell you how many times I've burned my fingers trying to get the small pan out of the AF basket. ***COMMERCIAL ADVICE - If the gripper was teflon-coated (as in other spatulas, etc. ) - these would be much better. They'll undoubtedly scratch the rims of your pans (let me add - Despite the fact that they have scratched the rims of my pans, I will continue to use them because they are an excellent tool (AF or regular oven) - They could, however, be made to be more protective of the metal with which they come into contact! As a result, exercise caution when employing them.
It looks as if it was thrown together quickly. Unless you manually close it, it stays open the entire time. I had no idea this didn't have a locking mechanism to keep it shut when not in use. (Without a locking mechanism, this will take up space in a drawer and may become entangled with other kitchen utensils. ) Anyone with a few drawers full of kitchen utensils understands what I'm talking about. ) It was also scratched up when it arrived. I haven't used it yet, so I can't say if it overheats when in use.

I purchased my first set for use in my air fryer oven, then purchased a second set for a friend who only uses a large toaster oven, and finally purchased a third set for use in my BBQ grill. Lifting hot grill grates, pans, or trays is a piece of cake. br>The handle with the hook makes hanging it on the side of the grill a breeze. Because I'll be leaving them outside all of the time, I'm hoping the material won't rust.
That's very useful! I've never owned an oven pan-handling tool. This device is incredible. I'll make a recommendation for you. if your hands are extremely shaky The tool's length, on the other hand, provides some leverage. Because of the added arm, the pan will feel a little heavier. However, if you have the strength to use this, you should do so. It's very practical. By the time you've moved the pan around, it'll be too late. The grip is solid and there is no heat transfer to your hand. Oven mitts and oven pads are useless in comparison. With our Chicago Metal 14" Pizza Pan, it's a match made in heaven.
It keeps your hand away from the flames while allowing you to pour from the pan without losing control. It's a little heavy for backpacking, but it'll protect you from second and third-degree burns. As a result, I believe the trade-off is well worth the few extra dollars. oz is a unit of measurement for weight.
