An ounce of prevention . . . .
@_*UpperDown
I bought this glove to use with my mandoline slicer, but now that I have it I use it with my microplane, other food graters, and sometimes when I have a lot of knife work to do I put in on my left hand while I slice, dice and chop with sharp knives in my right hand. I thought it might be a bit bersome, but it's not at all. I think it's important to remember that this glove is cut RESISTANT, not cut proof, so reasonable precautions should not be abandoned.
The glove fits my hand very well, but I can see that it might be too small for others. I normally wear a woman's size small glove. This Microplane glove is quite flexible though, and I'm certain it would easily fit a woman's size medium or even large. One man's review here indicates he struggled but managed to get it on his bigger hand. I agree that it would be helpful if the manufacturer offered another one or two size options.
Obviously the glove will need cleaning after using it to hold food. While the glove is machine washable, it's not machine dryable. Here's what I do to clean the glove in between machines washings => with the glove still on my hand, I squeeze some dish soap onto it and then wash it under warm running water with the help of a small kitchen cleaning brush if needed. Then I rinse it, blot most of the water off with a hand towel, and let it air dry. I've had no problem with lingering odors using this or the machine method of washing.

Although expensive, this glove is a time and hand saver! I use it regularly when slicing horizontally into onions, shallots, etc. to protect me from cuts when the knife blade slips. It also works great for protecting my fingers and fingernails when I grate cheese on a box grater. Using the Microplane glove means that I can grate gruyere right down to the rind and avoid nicking my fingers up or having nail polish chips getting into the food.

Doesn't actually provide cut-protection
@_*Arnold Irving
I bought one of these to provide some protection for my thumb when pushing odd-shaped vegetables through a v-slicer. I've maybe done this 6-7 times for a few minutes, very cfully. Good thing I watched what I was doing - the glove is cut cleanly through part of the thumb. This is on a crappy home v-slicer, not on a piece of professional equipment or a ninja's sword or something. I think a leather driving glove would provide better protection.
Essentially, this product is worthless. Unless you're concerned your fingers too long.
