I’m passionate about cooking, baking, and home canning. You can always find me in the kitchen trying out a new recipe, baking a loaf of bread, baking cookies for the grandkids, and/or canning vegetables for the winter. While some people hate cooking, I absolutely enjoy it! I just hate the clean-up!!!
Last month I was cleaning out my kitchen linens and realized that I needed new oven mitts and hot pads. Mine were a complete mess from canning the past few months. They were stained up, falling apart, and worse of all…not great quality, so I was always getting minor burns! Shoot, I should of replaced them a long time ago!
At one of my local stores I found a set of the KitchenAid Textured Silicone Grip Mini Mitts and purchased them. You get 2 to a pack and they come in fun colors to go with your kitchen. I selected the Aqua Blue which works perfectly in my coastal themed kitchen.
Each mini mitt measures 5 1/2″ by 8″ in length. They’re durable and completely machine washable. Made out of super-thick 100% cotton. When it comes to drying them (after laundering), you want to hang them to air dry or dry flat.
Here’s a few reasons why I love them and wanted to tell you all about them!
1. You can use them if you’re right handed or left handed.
2. Size. They’re over-sized which means my hubby and I can BOTH use them.
3. Love the little silicone dots all over the palm area of the mitt. They help protect your hand from heat and help to keep things from slipping out of your hand. You get a good grip!
4. They’re lofty and thick. I really like the quilting pattern on them. They’re very insulated!
5. Each one has a hanging loop. I keep Command Performance Hooks on the inside of my cabinet doors and hang my mitts up there. Saves on drawer space.
I’ve been using my new KitchenAid Mini Mitts and love them! They’ve been getting a real workout in my kitchen. Regarding laundering…I’ve washed them 4 times so far and they still look new! I hang them on my clothesline to air dry. I’m going to pick up a second pair for myself and a pair to gift to my daughter for her Birthday. They’re fantastic!

I do like the fact that you can launder them so easily. However, I want a mitt that fits my hand and is not too big.
Now this I love! We so need some new oven mitts and I love that these have grips on them I so need that. I will looks for these thanks for sharing.
