Jean-Patrique Assist Silicone Handle Cover for Whatever Pan - Set of 2, Up to 464 F Heat-Resistant Cast Iron Skillet Handle Covers

We purchased a Whatever Pan earlier in the year but had no occasion to use it until recently. The pan is excellent but we soon discovered that the handles, understandably, got very hot in use, hence our purchase of the silicone handles. They slip over the existing handles and make the pan easy and safe to use. Excellent!

Useful, but as others have mentioned you still need to use additional protection with them as pan does get extremely hot.

I have used these a few times and was frustrated when they still got hot until I learned to only put them on when I need to hold the handles. This is actually really easy to do as they slip on and off simply. This makes them work effectively and is the reason I have still given them four stars.

Very useful

I bought these to go with my recent purchase of the Whatever Pan. They are definitely necessary as it would be very easy to forget and touch the metal handles of the pan, which become searingly hot. However while the silicon handles do provide some protection, they themselves become quite hot during cooking, which surprised me. Also they are quite loose fitting, so I feel they could slip off fairly easily. Finally they are expensive at over £8 for two small pieces of silicon.So in summary you do need them with the pan, but quality and value for money are doubtful. So catch-22 really.

Fab

These are a must have for cast iron hot pot pots.Very handy to have, just slip over the handles.Invaluable.

Used these for the first time last night and they were pretty pointless to be honest. They still allowed heat from the metal handles of the pan through to the point I could not really touch them!
