Hamman Glove use: Can anyone tell me how to use the Hamman glove I bought, please?

Always use wet...never dry. The very best way to use it is to make your bathroom into a mini hammam (steam room) and sit for 5-15min to soften your skin. Then soap up you body with bar soap (something natural like "Kiss My Face) and take the glove and rub up and down on your skin until the dead skin cells accumulate in little balls all over your body. The motion should be fluid and might cause reddness a little. It's not a gentle western treatment, but do it anyway because it's good (just don't let you skin bleed, obviously). I'm speaking from authentic experience in a hammam, where we had the employees do it on us. The longer you steam the better the results...it sometimes takes awhile for the balls to start forming but when they do you know you're doing it right. Let me know how it goes and i'll help out more if you want

I have never heard of a 'cut resistant glove. Sounds intriguing. My view: it might be helpful although the only time I need real caution are when I get it out of my drawer or when I wash it

There are pieces on the side by the handle that you press in and lets it slip to the other position. You are supposed to do it on both sides and change it up each time you use the robot. You get better coverage that way and it helps keep the cord from twisting.

I had originally purchased one of these... but I actually returned it because it was a little too difficult for me to learn how to use properly. Sorry I can't be of more help.

Put a little pressure and make small circular motions. Basically put your hand in a comfortable position so the mitt doesn't slip off. Thats how i've been using it.

Can't answer this as of yet, trying to figure out why this open but doesn't closed, or viceversa. Instructions that came with the operator are very voge. So I'm still playing to get the perfect combination to get the operator works as it should.

The glove is padded on one side to be used in the left hand. IF you used it on your right hand the fabric touching iron would be a poyester type fabric which surely would burn.

It appears to be designed for right hand use. If I try and put my left hand in the glove the nubs will be on the back of my hand. So, of course a left handed person could use the glove, but on your right hand.

I use the glove on my left hand for knitting. Take hold at the wrist and pull the glove completely inside out (just like turning a sock). Although, the thumb area has "stays" in it, they turn easily with a small adjustment at the end of the thumb compartment. Hope this helps. Marjory Overholt

Because I keep the Velcro closed at the same place and take the wrist guard off and on like glove, the Velcro is fine. Unfortunately, you may need to buy new wrist guards? or buy Velcro sticky backs and attach them (sew them on?) the wrist guards. You could contact the manufacturer and ask for repair ideas or replacement. Sorry I can't be of much help in repair ideas.

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?

This is going to sound crazy, but, I found wetting my hands and drying them most of the way then grabbing the dirt holder in both hands and twisting works for me. The dampness of my hands grabs the holder enough to allow me to twist it to get the unlock symbol in the open position. I need 2 hands to twist, while holding the body of the machine between my legs. Its not a good answer, but, its been working. I hope Hoover is reading these comments!

Try using a lint roller! I gave up using the glove and use the lint roller on my dog instead.

It works well with gloves. I am able to operate mine while wearing gauntlet style snowmobile gloves

you remove the entire hand and replace it with the infinity glove which fits over a ball point but its really stuck will take some time to remove. Basically replacing the hand piece for another.

My husband says as wonderful as it is for our purpose ... stoking the woodstove ... he believes it's too stiff to use with a heat gun. He said the 'Ove Glove I bought him years ago he keeps in his soldering box and it works great. That's all the advice I can give.

Hi, Just went to try these on to make sure, and they could be used on either hand, or both at the same time, when taking something heavy out of oven... They have the silicone on both sides of the glove, so you can use either glove on either right or left. :)
