I was so excited to receive this set of Vida by Paderno Barbecue tools for free in exchange for my honest review. I enlisted my husband to help me test these out, since he is the BBQ master in our house. He said the tools were very good quality, the tongs did stick a little when first trying to unlock them. But once we worked at it a bit it became easier. He said it was a nice change from using my regular kitchen tongs, and meant less arm hairs got singed! The flipper was nice and solid for flipping the burgers. Overall it was a good experience and he enjoyed using these tools. Looking forward to trying the basting brush for our next batch of ribs!
