About time. We've got some awful oven gloves at home that are no way fit for purpose. About time we had proper standards for safety equipment like this.

About time.

My marigolds are rubbish for getting food out of the oven, some thing needs to be done about it! :-t

20%. Wonder where they pulled that number from. If it's where I think then I hope they were wearing gloves.

The 20% is bollocks .. my wife buys pro washing up gloves and yes they're more expensive [she says under 10%] but they last ten times longer. Amazon sells them.

We all know it's not about grip though is it.  They simply just want to guarantee that when they walk into Lidl or Morrisons and buy a pair  they won't rupture when they are fisting their MEP mates and impoverished runaway rentboys, all coked up in their 5 million boudoir penthouse apartment, whilst burning Euros and Fifty pound notes for fun.
