I saw the ad a few years ago in a cooking magazine and I thought, "Cool. Gotta have me one of those." Came in a nice wood box with two tools of different size. Tried it once, seemed totally impractical and clumsy to me, and they're sitting somewhere in the recesses of my cabinet, undoubtedly next to something else I probably bought off an infomerical.
IMHO tongs are a much better, cheaper tool.
