Question 1

Are these gloves the real Ove Gloves or fakes? Reviews are confusing!

Accepted Answer

I received fakes from Amazon.  I have the real Ove gloves and noticed the poor quality immediately.  I had no idea people were selling fakes, especially Amazon, but the quality was so different I did a search and sure enough, they were fakes. I contacted Joseph Enterprises and confirmed. Mine were white at the bottom, but no tag or hook inside which was one of the signs for those of you who don't know how to tell. The real ones are amazing. I just received the real ones from Joseph Enterprises who are trying to work with Amazon to stop selling the fakes. If you are getting burns when using your Ove gloves, you most likely have fake gloves. Return them to Amazon if you don't have a tag and hook and tell them why you want your money back.  Also verify that the UPC number on the box begins with 021363 which is assigned to Joseph Enterprises.  I'll upload a picture of the real gloves I received in the ratings. The real gloves are a 5 out of 5 stars!

Question 2

My hands are pretty small, are they so big that they slide off of smaller hands ?

Accepted Answer

I ordered 6 SETS of 2 gloves and they simply tape two boxes of 1 glove, together.  They do NOT come 2-in-a-box. When ordering from sellers that offer 2 gloves for under $22, you are opening yourself up to getting the gloves that I believe are fakes.  I've ordered many SINGLE gloves from Amazon in the past, and all have been fine.  However, the 2 orders I completed, using sellers that were not Amazon, but used Amazon to fulfill the orders, and buying TWO gloves for under $22, have been what I feel are fakes.  The real OVE Gloves have a tag, with all manufacturing information/regulations, sewn in to the glove opening.  The tag, and the box they come in, state that they are made in S. Korea.  The gloves I believe are knock-offs, have NO tag anywhere inside the gloves.  The boxes they come in do state that they are made in S. Korea, but there is NO tag on the gloves themselves.The real Ove Gloves are much thicker, a brighter white, the print on the gloves is more crisp/clear, and they fit larger hands easily.  I can barely fit my fingers into the gloves I believe are fake.  The real gloves are very roomy and even my 6'4" neighbor gets his hand into them with plenty of room.Perhaps the easiest way to see a real vs. possible knock off glove is by looking at the opening where you slide your hand inside.  The real gloves have a white border material.  The other gloves have a black material border.And... all my SINGLE glove orders have been the real Ove Glove.  Every PAIR of gloves order has been the ones I believe are fakes.Unfortunately, there is no way to see if you will get the Ove Glove or the possible knock offs as you order.  I am sending back 6 orders of gloves that are sold as a set of 2.  So far, both orders I received of the possibly fake/lesser quality gloves, were orders sold as a set of 2.  ALL orders I've completed at Amazon, where I bought multiple gloves, but sold as ONE glove each, have been the real Ove Gloves.  I hope this helps!  I've tried to list facts and keep opinion out of this (other than to state "Possibly Fake/Knockoffs").  I cannot say, for certain, that the gloves I believe are fake, actually are.  But, I have many Ove Gloves that I've purchased over the years, and the quality of the ones I call "real" is way above and beyond that of the ones I call "fake".In addition, I find it hard to believe, with country/state regulations these days, that a glove used to protect people from harm/burning themselves, is allowed to be sold with NO TAG inside it to explain cautions and meet legal standards for local and country wide regulations.  I'm not an attorney, but as a consumer, I cannot believe a REAL danger to other consumers, would not be covered in a legitimate product sold in the USA.

Question 3

I want to purchase an ove glove like the ones i previously owned.  reviews are bad.  is amazon still selling the fakes in 2019?

Accepted Answer

You can check Amazon for what they have now. I ordered these and then returned them. I opted for the ones they sell that do not have the grips on . I think they were $9.99.  Nobody sells the old ones that I had years ago it seems. I looked everywhere.

Question 4

Can you wash the Ove Glove? Can you put in the dryer?

Accepted Answer

do wash the glove in cold water and mild detergent. I do not dry it in the dryer. I was told it is better to let it air dry. It is made of the same protective fabric that is used to protect firemen. A fireman's wife said I should allow it to air dry. I go by her advise. I had my first glove for 9 years and washed it several times and air dried it. After 9 years usage it was getting to be less resistant to heat. I purchased a new one. I wont be without my ove-glove!
