These heavy duty pom tongs are a great product that not only look nice but are very durable and functional. The stainless steel single-piece construction makes them easy to clean and gives them a very streamlined look. This 9 inch model gives an extra bit of reach as well.

These are handy tongs. They are available in multiple lengths - these are the 9". I use them mostly for retrieving and serving pickles, olives, etc. They appear to be made well - out of a single piece of metal. The natural spring in the tongs is about perfect. I would imagine these tongs would hold up well in a commercial environment. I would recommend them.

This is a nice tong. Study one piece design. It picks up items easily and maintains it 's grip, Can be used to pick up veggies on a veggie tray. Would buy again.

Completely standard pom tongs. Absolutely nothing special. They do the job they are supposed to do and do it well. The heavy duty version is, of course, sturdier and should hold up better to abuse.

I use these daily to grab hot things or add to serving bowls. They aren’t fancy /more like basic tong. I especially like putting them out on top of food bowls at picnics/holidays so people don’t use their hands to grab food.

I have been looking for them for a while. And I am glad I could find it especially in this size. The color is beautiful. I already put them in dishwasher once and no deformation. I will use them to serve cheese and such I guess.

Great pair of tongs. Sturdy and easy to use. No pinching like you would get with tongs that have a hinge. I've been using pom tongs for years because they are really the easiest and most efficient type to use, in my opinion.

Hard to complain at the price, but these tongs are really ugly. Vollrath has their name and info printed on the outside/both sides of this tong. My dish staff just brought them to me and referred to them as prison tongs. They look like they've been used, scratched, dull finish. I'm quickly shopping for something new. These can't be used in party rental.

Thank you for your feedback! We’re sorry you did not prefer this product. For recommendations, please contact our Customer Solutions team.

These Pom tongs are the best. They are not kidding when they say “Heavy Duty”. So glad I went with these Instead of the cheap ones for our salad bar. They make it easy to pick up food and place it in your container. We also purchased the 9" ones and they are the same quality. They will last a lifetime. Hope this helps

These Vollrath 47042 Heavy Duty 12" Pom Tongs are a really well made product. Sturdy and streamlined. We ordered 6 of these tongs for the purpose of selecting doughnuts for our customers but also use them for grabbing warm foods from our warmers when assembling breakfast sandwiches. Like the simplicity of the design too, easy to use, easy to clean.

I was always a fan of these Vollrath Heavy Duty six inch stainless steel pom tongs, and my most recent order was no different. I love that they can be left near a pan while cooking and not worry about melting plastic. They are easy to use and really do pickup round or square ice cubes with out slipping. I would recommend to anyone using the plastic versions as they are a safer, healthier alternative.

I previously purchased another brand and they turned out to be more flimsy. So then I purchased Vollrath brand and these turned out very sturdy and easy to get a grip on picking up the fruits and vegetables for what I use it for.

These are really strong. Very well made. They say heavy duty and they mean it. It definitely has resistance when squeezing them together. They feel great in your hand and it doesn't feel like they are gonna break when your using them.

These work just fine for our needs. If you have several trays of food going around I recommend getting several of these. If just for a family dinner I'd possibly go with something a little nicer. Very good for the price.

This is a perfect little tool for serving vegetables or salad toppings. I purchased this Vollrath version as well as a less expensive one for the purpose of comparing before buying more. This one is definitely heavier duty. This is thicker, feels heavier in your hand and the metal is nicer. They both serve their purpose well, but this one will hold up and look nicer longer.

The Vollrath Heavy Duty 6" Pom Tong are great for our Charcuterie Boards. My only complaint would be the stickers they put directly on the tongs are a pain to get off and usually require some chemical to remove the adhesive.
