I bought a set of Deik oven mitts and pot holders many years ago and loved them so much that I bought several other sets to gift family and friends for Christmas. I also saved an extra set for myself for when they wore out. Long story short: they never wore out. My son grew up and shares a home with his girlfriend and I gifted him that last set I was holding on to. They were so appreciative! I cannot find any on line or in stores now. I have other people I would like to buy them for.plus another set for myself as I have lost one of the potholders.
