Do you find it painful or difficult to move heavy, hot items between the oven and kitchen counter, especially when wearing oven gloves?

If you have a minute please could you fill in this quick survey, as it would be really useful for my university work! Thanks. :)

    Hi and welcome to the community

    Yes it is a struggle to move heavy items. I find oven gloves very hard to use, i usually use a folded tea towel and also try to avoid using heavy dishes I use the non stick metal tins for everything

    Hello!

    I am trying to collect data about how conditions such as arthritis, sarcopenia, nerve damage and tendonitis affect people's ability to move heavy kitchenware. If you could spare a minute to fill in this short survey it would really help me out!

    Thank you!

    I did the survey- just read that you aren’t referring to my disability. Your survey will not capture some of what you want. I have never dropped an oven tray because I would not even try something I was not absolutely sure I would manage as it is so dangerous.
