Their not cheap at 20 bucks each and that's not for a set either. Consumer Reports they do what they say they do but it could give some folks a false sense of security. The amount of time they can protect you is limited and variable depending on the conditions. I use mine for taking things out of the oven or toaster oven or microwave. On the grill, if it's to hot for me to put my hands over it, I just turn off the burners. Once the source is quelled, you can use your fingers to touch the meat and see what's going on.. Example: last night I had 5 really nice pork chops on the grill. Two of them were almost twice as thick as the remaining three. I suppose that's because they came from two separate packages. I store them in Ziploc freezer bags. My wife insists I cook to close to the forward edge. I do but that way I don't have to put my hands directly over the heat. She was going to turn the chops over for me as I was doing something else and put the two larger chops over the burners. When I went to check to see if they were finished, I didn't know she had moved the two chops and got a surprise when I touched the cast-iron cooking surface. I did it real quick and did not get burned. She said oh sorry! I forgot to tell you I moved the two chops. I picked up my double spatchula and flipped them over to check things out. They all were done and I took them off the grill with the double spatchula. It's just a matter of what your use to using.
