The Le Creuset Silicone Round Cool Tool is a deceptively useful kitchen accessory. At 20cm in diameter it fits under most standard pot and casserole bases, protecting surfaces from heat whilst keeping cookware stable with its non-slip silicone grip. It also works as a pot holder, jar opener, and anti-slip mat for mixing bowls and boards, making it one of the few kitchen accessories that genuinely earns more than one use. Heat resistant to 250 degrees C, freezer compatible, and dishwasher safe, it is the kind of thing that quietly becomes indispensable.

• Heat resistant surface protector: High-performance silicone rated to 250 degrees C protects kitchen surfaces and tables from hot pots, pans, and dishes placed directly on them.
• Four uses in one: The Cool Tool works as a surface protector, anti-slip mat, pot holder, and jar opener, covering the most common everyday needs without requiring separate accessories.
• Non-slip grip on both sides: The silicone surface grips both the worktop and the base of cookware, keeping pots and pans stable when placed on it and preventing the trivet from sliding.
• Freezer compatible down to -23 degrees C: As well as protecting from heat, the Cool Tool is rated for use with cold and frozen items, making it suitable for resting chilled dishes on as well as hot ones.
• Dishwasher safe and easy to store: The Cool Tool goes in the dishwasher for cleaning and lays flat for storage, taking up minimal space in a drawer or cupboard.
