Beware of Heat Rating

These gloves are decent, but just know that if there is hot steam coming from the area you are using them in, they will NOT block the steam. Also, I believe it says they are rated up to 540 degrees (can't remember exactly), but whatever it says, it's not. I was roasting some veggies in the oven at 450, and when I pulled them out, the heat got to my hand rather quickly, within 3 seconds. These are decent if you're handling stuff at around 425 or lower, but if you need something for higher heat, I would look elsewhere.
