16 Best Oven Gloves (Review) In 2022

Best choice and the first on our list is the ARCLIBER Heat Resistant Quilted Cotton Oven Gloves. Available in 4 different colors, they’ll sit well hanging up in any kitchen. They were quite comfortable inside but quite stiff. and come in three lengths and seem well made. If you get the longest available which is 17 inches, they’ll offer more arm cover but they can be folded at the top if you don’t need so much protection. They can’t be put in the washing machine largely because this will break down the treatment (fire retardancy) so we see them getting quite grubby over time. Great pot holders are highly heat resistant and a great price.

These LoveU Silicone and Cotton Double-layer Heat Resistant Oven Gloves have fingers which seems more convenient when handling hot and cold pots, pans, and bakeware. Promising to be resistant up to 425 degrees Fahrenheit, they certainly seem it and have one of the top gradings for food handling (LFGB). They come up pretty roomy so if you are looking for oven mitts that are snugger these ones may not be for you as it would be difficult to hold anything securely. For a great price, you get a pair of gloves with a silicone outer and a comfortable lining and because of the outer material, you can open jars with them on too.

Available in black or white with a standard cuff, which we tested, or long cuff, the HighLoong 932°F Extreme Heat Resistant BBQ Oven Safety Gloves look more like something a woodworker might wear so we were all in agreement we’d wear these in a cold winter garden if we wanted! They’re lined inside, so despite the industrial look, they are actually comfortable to wear, protecting the wrists. We weren’t sure about using near a flame even for a second in case the fabric would melt, but used in a hot grill and we didn’t feel any heat after about 5 seconds. Good all-rounder but not for the occasional cook that wants a ‘pretty’ design. We tested at around 400 degrees Fahrenheit and weren’t sure about claims of up to 932F resistance and hands did get hot after a short time.

Heat Guardian Heat Resistant Oven Gloves are pretty neat looking if you like a skeletal design that is! They do fit snugly so the dexterity is better than thicker five-fingered oven gloves so you can hold the pot while manipulating ingredients without burning. They do heat up when lifting extremely hot pans like iron griddles, but we didn’t suffer any burns wearing these pot holders – just warm hands. They cover the forearm in part so offer a good bit of protection and a silicone grip, and they’re not as cumbersome as using an oven mitt. Get these and use them on Halloween night too!

Cuisinart Silicone Mini Oven Mitts come in five pleasant colors. They don’t have separate thumbs so will be a good fit for most – they’re more a ‘puppet’ design but this worked for us. There are longer versions available if you prefer to cover wrists and forearms too. The grip inside the ‘mouth’ is dotted with silicone so they do grip pots and pans really well. Even though the manufacturer says hand wash only you can still set the washing machine to this setting but don’t put in the drier. You get a pair of mitts which, because of the design, you can use on either hand. We liked these because they’re small enough to put in a drawer and nice enough to hang up using the handy loop.

We tried these Gorilla Grip Premium Silicone Slip Resistant Oven Mitts in pink, because they’re cute but thinking about the safety aspects they offer a good grip and no burned fingers! They come in a pack of two and although they don’t have fingers, just a space for your thumb, they are flexible enough to lift pans and pots with ease. These were the best oven gloves on our list for price versus durability so make the best choice on our list. There’s no fabric cuff like some on our list so is easy to clean and didn’t stain when we tested them. You might like that they have a padded lining too, offering a little more comfort than expected.

These professional style Auzilar Silicone Cooking Gloves for oven use and more are ergonomically designed with a textured appearance and available in black. With a five-finger design, you can grab much more easily and the silicone design allows a good grip. Use them to move hot pots and grill pans. We like that they have a comfortable lining which extends past the glove to protect wrists and partially the forearms from burns and splatters.

DAMUZHI Extra Long Silicone Oven Mitts are extremely large in the hand too so when we tested them we decided instantly that the fitting isn’t really very good and makes for it to be difficult to do smaller tasks like pressing the buttons on the grill or stove. The one main benefit was that the arms were entirely covered up the elbows so any splashing from grease or hot water was absorbed. We liked that they come with a bag for storage but this was a bit pointless – the gloves are so big and the bag so small that this is impractical as they won’t fit! They fit flat in a drawer or on a hanger in the kitchen so not a big problem. They would be great for using hot grills in a professional kitchen or for the barbeque although we’re unsure as to the measurement on heat resistance. We tried the longest version in black but there is a shorter version available and there’s an orange color too.

You might love a little bit of color in your kitchen and these JHK Heat Resistant Flamingo Oven Gloves have a very cute flamingo design with either a white or navy background – a plain black quilted design is available too. They’re designed in a classic mitt style with thumb and come in a pair. The heat resistance is great and we didn’t notice any problems with heat transfer through the gloves. Unlike some, because of the fire-resistant treatment, we put them in the washing machine on a low heat but left to dry naturally. They’re handy for moving, lifting, or touching any hot object but we wouldn’t recommend touching food directly as they may become easily stained.

This really is a mini oven mitt but is designed to be so. Covering the fingers and thumb and, depending on how long your fingers are, your knuckles too. Acronde 2 Pairs Mini Silicone Heat Resistant Cooking Pinch Mitts won’t offer protection to wrists but are great just for picking up the handles of pots and pans and will protect from cold too. You have to be careful not to burn yourself and we wouldn’t recommend using to reach into an oven or over a grill with them. As far as mini potholders go these are cute and easy to store – we left them on the oven handle as they just sit over it neatly. At under $9 this is the Unclutterer budget pick and you’ll get two pairs in blue/red or green/pink. These are ideal for handling small items with your fingers and lifting objects from the hob but must be used carefully as they’re thin and difficult to keep on your hands.

With at least ten colorways, the HOMWE Extra Long Professional Silicone Oven Mitts claim to be oil and waterproof, the only thing we’d say is the fabric that extends from the glove absorbs liquids and protects but of course needs cleaning, so you can pop them in the dishwasher or washing machine but not the drier. The pair of gloves offer good cover for forearms and the one-size-fits-all and good grip means these oven mitts are pretty good. Perhaps no the best oven glove in the world.

The second HOMEWE on our list, HOMWE Silicone Oven Mitts and Pot Holders Set of 4 perhaps are the best oven mitts if you’re looking for flexibility. They are heat resistant to temperatures for the home kitchen and will protect your hands, wrists, and forearms. They are FDA approved and feature a silicone outer with a non-grip texture so it’s easy to handle hot pans and bakeware. We found that they are flexible enough that it’s easier than using thicker, cotton oven gloves, and there’s an extra-long version at 14.7 inches so most of the forearm can be protected too. Resistant to 450 degrees Fahrenheit these oven mitts do make for a good pot holder. They come in four colorways too -black, grey, blue and red. You might like that they have great positive reviews too.

The JH Heat Resistant Double Silicone Layer Oven Gloves come in quite a large size so might not be great for smaller hands. They have a cotton lining so are pretty comfortable to wear and the pair you get are reversible so the silicone outer on both sides is a bonus. These oven gloves come in four colorways which fit into any kitchen decor and suit all tastes if you prefer the style and design. They can handle high levels of heat so you can get bakeware right out of the oven and they help with dexterity as the silicone used is quite thin but high quality. They didn’t get too hot while moving hot pans and bakeware but as fingered pot holders they did the job. They’re non-slip too so gripping pots and pans is easy. You might like that they’re machine washable but only on a cold wash, don’t put in the drier.

Available in 11 colorways, FERLLYMI Heat Resistant Silicone Shell Kitchen Oven Mitts not only look good but also protect your hands as you would expect. This extra-long version guards against drips and splashes and the inside is comfortable too. They are easy to clean although we don’t recommend putting in the washing machine as the heat resistant silicone may get damaged under a high heat wash. A simple clean under warm water and soap, while you’re wearing them, is enough. We think that you might like the different designs and that the silicone outer helps protect from heat as well as making it easy to grip pots and pans.

From one of the most reputable and experienced kitchen companies, these Cuisinart Heat Resistant Quilted Oven Gloves come in five colorways and keep your hands safe from burns and scalds. A pair will be supplied and we love this oven mitt and it made our premium pick. They’re an excellent choice for protecting your fingers, hands, wrists, and forearms and claim to withstand up to 500 degrees Fahrenheit so make great pot holders if you want to be safe while you move and lift hot objects from the oven or grill. At less than $25 they worked really well to keep heat from our hands and although they are mitts and not finger gloves they weren’t so thick that we couldn’t move pots easily.

The Killer’s Instinct Outdoors Heat Resistant Oven Gloves are one-size-fits-all and feature five fingers so that you can control moving and lifting hot objects with ease. The knitted design means that they are quite flexible making them easy to use. The left and right hands are similar in shape so they will fit most hands. They have a 2.7-inch sleeve that protects and guards the wrist and you could probably wear these for moving logs or even cycling in the cold of winter too!
