I use mine several times a day when keeping my wood stove fed and have been using them for several weeks. So far they have been great. That said, I never handle the wood for more than a couple seconds and am in and our pretty quick.

What were you doing with them? We use ours when adding wood to a burning fire or while using the poker to stir up the embers. We don't leave them in the fire for any length of time. Hope no one got hurt.

Not sure, maybe they were harmed in transit? Did you add a water conditioner to the tap water or use distilled or bottled spring water? Plain tap water contains chlorine etc that can harm them.. That's about all I can think of. I would call them and see if they will send you a new pair. Good luck.

Yikes - pretty sure this would result in a melting pile of plastic/gel. You can keep them cool in the frig and then apply them. If you're looking for heat - use a different product....there's a microwavable or freezer product from Mother Love.

I cannot get mine to get passed a very little warm sensation and it is a useless rip off if you ask me! I have never been so disappointed with an item as I have this one. I think that this should be taken off Amazon all together! Sorry I cannot help with your question and sorry you have been ripped off too!

mines were melted as well. I just pulled a small amount off and still eat it. Some you can pull a part with no problem. I am thinking, keep in refrig during the summer time.

8/8/14 One of the fingers of my gloves got a small hole in it and it did mold all the way down the finger through the rubber. I generally just dry these on a towel and toss them under the sink.8/11/14 After looking at this question, I took another look at the glove without a hole in it and it has mold in each of the fingertips. I suppose it is the moisture from my hands sweating. They are 8 months old.

Not sure about super body hand warmers. I'm just happy with Hot Hands. They never did give up on me and there were times I was out in O degree weather all day. If they slowed down, all I had to do was pull them out in the air and shake them couple times and they fired right back up. If fact they were still warming the next day when I went to replace them. If super body and hand warmers are better I would like to try them as well.

My suggestion would be to just throw them into the washing machine. I accidentally washed my pair of expense waxed jeans and the wax came off.

I have never used them for this application. But I hear of people doing that with these type of glove. I have heard stories of success with this. It would be a cheap solution at least. Give it a shot what do you have to lose?

They have to be removed prior to using. If not they will melt I speak from experience!

I haven't tried. They seem to be so very fragile. If you try it let us know what happened. Judie Johnson

Same thing happened to me I called and had them send me a return label. At the same time bought new ones. I was refunded when other returned to them. It was very simple and got the new ones in two days! Also use the original shipping box they came in. That way it cost you nothing to return them.

I don't know as I threw mine in the garbage after I sliced the side of my thumb off!

Wow!! Melted?? If this plastic melted then I doubt the person was even able to get into the water themselves. I just can't imagine a tub of bath water hot enough to melt this, so no I haven't experienced this.

Thanks for taking the time to answer. Now that you mention it, the red gloves are bigger. I think I'm with you and will not re-order the red. Just glad that someone else out there experienced the same thing and that I'm not crazy! Thanks again!
