My new gloves arrived yesterday and on the first use last night burned the crap out my fingers trying to remove a grill rack which was less than 300 degrees. So how does this get a gold seal rating? My wife's $4 pot holder mitt did a better job. Here is what they look like.
Has anyone else had this problem too? Can't recommend them and returning them for a refund.

Those just look like regular gardening type gloves, not something heat rated???Comment

I use welder's gloves from Harbor Freight - you can carry around fire and be OK on the cheap.

I have these. There are a lot of similar brands. I can pick up a stray ember off the driveway and put it back in the firebox. Very good and washable too. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Apparently 932F is some kind of ISO or EU standard.Comment

No experience with these myself, but I recently bought BBQ Dragon's gloves, and while they feel nice and promise heat resistance, they were uncomfortably hot grabbing a CI skillet out of the oven. Pot holders did a better job for me too.Comment

I have these, the G&F Suede welders gloves advertised here and i have had no problems with them. Maybe you got a bad pair?Comment

XXLong welders gloves. I use these to stick my arm in my 800* WFO. I've pulled 500* pans out of the WFO without issue. Probably a little over kill for most grilling situations but your not going to get burned.

I swear by these gloves. Use them all the time when cleaning my WSCGC 24" grate on my Summit gasser. I have to flip the grate to scrub the underside and at 600-700 degrees, it's really hot. Never a problem.
These gloves are rated to 900°F direct contact and 1200°F otherwise: Protects in any temperature
Avoid worker injury by providing these heat resistant, wool lined, Kevlar® backed gloves for working around high temperatures.- Aluminized backing, over blended Kevlar® and para aramid blend fabric palm, reflects 90% of radiant heat away from back of hand for optimum protection
- Rugged 14" glove, with 11 oz. wool lining, provides radiant heat and abrasion resistance
- Protects in any temperature up to 1200°F radiant heat and 900°F short contact heat
- Clean easily with warm mild soap and water
I also use this kevlar sleeve to protect my braceleted arms. I usually use them with my Grill Beast or Pit Mitt gloves but they're good with the big kevlar gloves as well.
They come in 10" to 18" lengths. https://www.northernsafety.com/Search?q=kevlar+sleeve

I have those G & F gloves, and I don't recommend them at all. It's the only purchase I have made from a recommendation on this site that I have been disappointed in. They are okay until they get hot, then they STAY hot, and you practically have to rip them off your hands. I went back to my "Ove-Glove"Comment

I got a pair of firefighter gloves on sale at a local public safety supply. They fit well & are very heat resistant. Regularly about $100 on sale > $50.Comment

Just my opinion, I have a pair & have moved my grill rack & picked it up many times. The pic you have does not look like the gloves I have. Those are a different color & I have no marks from handling a grate or anything else.Comment

I got a pair last week and used them over the weekend on the pellet grill - moved and cleaned the grill grate while it was hot, moved some food with some short tongs, no problem. The grill was running around 400.Comment
