are the tongs solid with no flex at the ends? or are they the kind that are useless?

Yes very solid and well worth the money. I used them on the grill all the time

I bought them as a gift for my sister and she loves them and uses them all the time, as far as I know she hasn't had any problems with them.

you should be able to pick up a rack of pork ribs with them. i know what you mean by useless.

No; they are not that flexible. They're made of a hard plastic that has a little "give", but only a very little.

I found them to be sturdier then I expected for the price. Like any utensil they can be bent but with effort only. They perform very well for the task they are ment for.

They are only slightly flexible. I returned mine because they weren't as flexible as the pictures and description led one to believe. I was afraid that they would break easily, too. Good luck!

To me they are sturdy, but not awkward to handle, if that's what you're asking. The metal doesn't flex or give, but they are not heavy in weight. That is, they are lighter than the equivalent size glass mixing bowl.

They are flexible. You shouldn't have any problems.. I was very happy with this purchase

They are somewhat flexible but made to be adhered to a reasonably flat surface. They are fairly thick so they really don't flex too much. Hope this helps.

No not really... They are metal so they can come down a bit if need be but it is not designed to bend.

Not well at all. They rest on the bar, no need to slide on from the end. They also often drop off the bar when you go to lift a utensil off of it's hook.

Yes...they are flexible at the scraper end! I am one to get out every drop of cake batter, every bit of food from the pan and these are great for that...I love them!

no not that flexiable, the silicone blade is but not the handle and holder. you would have to go from side to side on the curve

They are flexible enough to allow me to grip a spatula. I use them mainly for cleaning the grills and cleaning the fryer at work and they are waterproof, otherwise they would be of no use to me.

Good question. I tried to twist and bend the plastic handle and it did not flex at all. It appears to be made of high impact plastic and is very sturdy. I trust it will do the job.

They are supposed to be but I broke the end off of one of them the first day by hitting a chicken thigh bone. I own three of them and I use them mainly for cutting vegetables. Mainly onions,leeks,potatoes,carrots,bell peppers and the like.

Yes but they do bend. If you need something perfectly straight, this may not be the answer for you.

I've been using my a lot and I do not see any signs of corrosion at the hinge or on the tongs.

Flexible but not flimsy. They're my go-to utensils now. They can scrape dough out of a bowl, stir a sauce on the stove, and cut through chunks of browning ground beef.
