Love these gloves. I had purchased one pair of the lighter version of these in a name brand at a garden center, liked them so much i went online to get more. I purchased the lighter weight (lighter weight = not as heavily rubberized as these). Found these as well during my search and thought having a few heavier duty gloves might be handy as well. Was skeptical, but since they were so affordable decided to get them. They are the same glove except that these have a slightly thicker waterproof coating that also comes around and covers much of the back of the gloves, which is nice in some circumstances. Even though heavier, they are still easy, not too stiff to work in. The little 'rose' decal is silly, and comes right off. But that doesn't affect the purpose of the gloves.
They are lightweight enough to be able to have full hand manipulation but keep fingers and palms dry while working in garden. They are tough enough to protect my hands when we are working on building projects. They aren't as hot as other gloves I have used. I would purchase again, but so far haven't even worn out the first pair, which has gone through the wash several times. I line dry them. I don't know if okay to put in dryer or not. (My guess is they would do okay, but the heat might eventually adversely affect the rubberized part of the glove.)
These gloves are really great. I do a lot of gardening and depend on this kind of gloves, but since most latex covered gloves only cover the finger tips on the back side, a lot of dirt still gets into the gloves. With these gloves, the rubber coating goes halfway up the back of the hand, and now my fingers stay clean and dry inside. The colors are great (my husband and son won't ever borrow the pink or purples gloves) and they seem to be standing up to heavy use very well, with no holes. These are now my preferred garden gloves.
Other than the cutsie colors, these gloves are great. I have been using one pair for the really dirty gardening jobs, as well as overall gardening with tools. The wide wrist band has not lost it's elasticity, and fits snug to the wrist. if you have particularly thick wrists, these might be too snug. The textured grip is good, but the fact that the water resistant coating goes further over the back of the hand is great. When I am transplanting to the garden, other gloves would end up filthy on the back of the hands and the insides would get moist. I was concerned that I would get really sweaty hands, but the are no different in that respect than any other coated gloves.
These gloves are wonderful. They're designed for people who actually put their hands in dirt, instead of just wearing gloves for how cute they look. Other gloves have the rubbery coating just on the front of the hand, but I dig my fingers down into the dirt and it always soaks through the back of the gloves because there's no coating there. These ones help a lot with that. The coating isn't 100% water proof and some muddy water does eventually come through and gets my hands dirty, but it's a lot better than other gloves I've encountered.
As you ladies know, all garden gloves are not created equally. Most are made for man-sized hands, length and width, and they don't come in nice colors. Ok, I've found a few small ones that work ok, but they don't protect the fingers very well. The G & F 2030 Women's Garden Gloves with Micro Form Nitrile coating texture grip (the name says it all!) fit a women's hands and should be comfortable for all but the very smallest or very largest hands. The elastic part of the glove fits snugly around the wrist, so even though my hands are fairly small, these gloves don't feel overly big. The very best thing about them is that the Nitrile coating covers the palm and all the way over the fingers to the back of the hand (as pictured). To me this is a big deal because my hands would invariably get wet and dirty, with the ones that only cover the tip, and then they'd get muddy and my hands didn't stay clean. Today I wore these gloves for hours doing all kinds of dirty work and when I took them off my hands were clean. No dirt under my nails!! Also, the textured coating seems thicker than most garden gloves, so they grip really well, and I think they may also last longer. Time will tell. So, what's not to like: comfortable, keep your hands very clean and dry, come in bright flower colors, and they're a great price--the same or less than the ones with the finger-tip-only coating.These gloves are a good value; so try them, you'll like them.

These are great. I hate gloves as I cannot feel what my fingers are doing. These are so much better with whatever the material is on the fingers.
Luv them. Probably won't last forever but at this price thats ok.
I worked very hard to ruin one pair by digging in a rocky clay dirt. You can not see any damage but my fingers do get wet if I put my right hand in water. They are not meant for that type of abuse I'm sure, but actually did very well. I can continue to use them to keep dirt off my hands. Another pair I've been using in my daily gardening and they are proving to be tough enough. The fit and feel are good. At the price, I feel very good about this purchase. I will order them again.
These gloves are great for gardening as they keep your hands from getting wet and dirty. Thy fit my smaller hands well and my husband even squeezed into a pair to do some gardening so they stretch nice too if needed. They are nice because they allow for good gripping when weeding. Only downside (and this is true with any of these types of gloves) is that with a lot of heavy work, they tend to get a hole in the finger but definitely a good value for the money.
I was not sure what to expect when I purchased this product. After receiving then I found they are constructed well and are just what I wanted for working in my garden. I like that they come up higher on your wrist to keep the dirt out. Also when digging in the soil the dirt does not penetrate through the gloves. I highly recommend this product and would purchase it again myself.
These glove have more protection than others that I have used because the rubber wraps around the back of the glove so my hands stay dry. One other plus of these gloves is that they are not sweaty. I keep a spare in my pocket at all times when I am in the yard. They wash in the washing machine very well. I have used them this fall for gardening and wood and rock removal, but I do not know how long they will last.
