The product, in the report: “Cotton Oven Mitt and Pot Holder - Threshold” from Target (bought at Asheville, NC location) Color: “Oranges” 100% cotton “Padded design helps protect your hands from heat or burns STANDARD 100 by OEKO-TEX® certified OEKO-TEX Certification Number: 16.HIN.96198” - from website description
I bought a new oven mitt / pot holder and used for the first time a couple nights ago to take a cast iron skillet out of the oven. The cast iron skillet had been in the oven for around 15 minutes at 400 degrees F. I had used that cast iron in the oven many times with other mitts and no problems. When I pulled the skillet out using this new oven mitt, the cast iron burned my hand through the mitt, leaving me with a second degree burn.
