The Turner Tongs are probably best used for grilling sausage, fish and items that are difficult to turn, They were cumbersome for simple grilling like steaks and chops. These Tongs require larger storage space than other grilling tools.

By Brynster from Dallas, TX on 7/21/2008

This is a great product that everybody should have. It is very easy to use.

By Joe the Steakman from Franklin Lakes,N.J. on 7/20/2008

Much more verswatile than a common lifter. You do not chase the meat all over the grill to flip it. It also seems to spare any coatings on the meat more than a lifter. (Doesn't work on cheeseburgers).

My husband had looked for a larger spatula for ages
but wasn't able to find exactly what he wanted. When
I came upon these with the turner tong, it was just
the type he'd been looking for. Great product.

Tongs doesnt pierce the steaks or any meat retaining all the juices. Large size is useful for any item that you can cook on the grill

By Below Freezing BBQ from Wisconsin on 7/14/2008

Great product! Was a bit concerned since some reviews said it can be difficult to grasp and hold, but as a female beginning grill user, I find this massive flipper to be great for everything, from burgers and steaks and fish.

By First Time Griller from Wisconsin on 7/7/2008

Bought this specifically for grilling fish, but I find myself using it for burgers, steaks, and fish. Was a big concerned with reviews saying it was difficult to close/use since it might be too big, but as a female, even I had no problem with it. Great buy!

Great for grilling salmon Steaks!

By Rich from Wappingers, NY on 7/5/2008

This tool doesn't pierce the meat leaving all the juices intact. Large surface makes it eay to turn or remove anything easily from the grill. Easy to clean

By Dane the golfer from Conover, NC on 6/27/2008

These tongs allow me to turn a whole piece of fish without it falling apart!

By Kell Bell from Spencer, Iowa on 6/27/2008

Bought this for my dad for Father's Day...the bottom flipper part was much bigger than I had expected but it worked wonderful for dad's flank steak!

By "T" from Averill Park, NY on 6/27/2008

Dad loved his Father's Day gift. He can't wait to have us over to show off his new grilling utensil!

By Everymom from Silver Spring, MD on 6/20/2008

This item is especially great when grilling fish. Makes turning a breeze.

By Red from Leonardo,NJ on 6/20/2008

Its an interesting utensil, but a bit cumbersome.

By Sandi Z from Plano, TX on 6/15/2008

Gave this as a Father's Day gift to my husband. He loves it! He was very disappointed last year when it sold out so quickly and wasn't available, so this year I ordered it as soon as I saw it in the catalog. It works so well I may just buy one for my brother!

I bought this for my dad for Father's Day along with the other BBQ set Brookstone offers. We don't live in the same state so I haven't seen it but my Dad called to tell me about it. He was blown away by the solid construction. He banged it on a table "hear that" he says. It's crazy sturdy, real quality. I was so happy. He only cooked burgers on the grill before this because he said it was difficult to flip other meat or lift it off successfully. Now he tells me he can lift a whole cow off if he wants with this thing. He was really excited and impressed with it. Thanks Brookstone for making my Long-Distance Father's Day Gift a success!

This is a best BBQ tong you will ever use. It works for the standard burger but it truly excels for turning things like fish, steaks, and chops. With practice, you can flip and remove three burgers at a time. Constructions is sturdy so I expect it to last for many years.

By Steve from Snoqualmie, WA on 5/3/2008

These are great for handling large items like salmon or other seafood or steaks.

By LJI from Minneapolis, MN on 4/8/2008

I purchased this as a gift for a close friend who grills everything that doesn't move. He loved it and I have already received an email from him telling me that he has already used it. He used it to grill salmon and he liked how he could flip the whole piece over without the fish falling apart.

By Rick from Michigan on 1/12/2008

Never worry about burgers crumbling or fish falling apart anymore. This tool is a perfect grill accessory to make your job so much easier.
Everybody needs one!

By Christine, the griller's wife from Danbury, CT on 1/12/2008

We use the tongs for general grilling but especially when grilling fish like swordfish, tuna, halibut or salmon steak. We've found it quite useful and handy when trying to turn delicate fish.

Great for large steaks, london broil, and for hand made hamburgers - prevents them from falling apart!

By Leaf the pirate from Margaritaville on 1/11/2008

This is great because you don't ever lose the juice from your steak when you turn them on the grill.

By Mike, the steak dude! from New Cumberland, PA on 1/11/2008

We grill all year round--this is the best invention ever made for grilling!!

By none from Jefferson Iowa on 1/6/2008

He uses this allthe time because it makes turning so much easier

By Ed from Chicagoland on 1/4/2008

It's a little too big... We do mostly burgers and chicken breasts and it's overkill. It would be nice for ribs or steaks. It's also hard to store because it's so big. And my wife finds it difficult to use, because it requires two hands for her to hold it closed.

By JYD from norwalk, ct on 12/23/2007

its very hard to hold onto food with this item, great idea though!

By C.E. from Queen Creek, AZ on 10/23/2007

I gave this as a gift and am told it is used often. Good product....nicely made.

By laura from new york on 10/23/2007

Great in flipping large, fragile foods like fish.

By Keyjo from 35565 on 10/22/2007

good workman ship great for larger food items

By Casey from Northeast Ohio on 10/22/2007

It is nice for more fragile items that need some support and are likely to fall apart more easily (like patties and fish).

By MK from Denver, CO on 10/22/2007

use on large pieces of fish and other foods for more control in turning and placement on the grill grate

By Wendy from California on 10/22/2007

The only drawback is that this tool now lives at my parent's house - my dad stole it!

By Lou Pumpkin from Huntington, NY on 10/22/2007

This is a great product! It makes picking up chicken and burgers so easy and fast. I would definitely recommend these tongs to anyone who enjoys grilling, especially when cooking for a crowd.

By Grama from Scoti, New York on 10/22/2007

To big and hard to handle

By Ed from Wethersfield,Ct. on 10/22/2007

When I'm cooking for a crowd,this is a time-saver.

By Mandy from Nashville, TN on 8/20/2007

We enjoyed the turner tong. The only thing negative is that it was hard to get bottom part of the tong underneath your meat to turn it. Otherwise, it's a great addition to have if you frequently grill out.
