Use: dishwashing. The manufacturing date, as indicated by the factory seal on them, is August 2022. I bought them because whatever we buy from supermarkets for dishes, no matter how super strong they claim to be, they dissolve very quickly. They were 1.60 at the time, but I think I found cheaper ones elsewhere. I had bought a total of 3 pairs. The housewife was not satisfied with the waterproofing aspect. Initially, I didn't have a particular issue, but after 1.5 years, I noticed that they started to retain moisture/mold inside them (every day I wash coffee pots, cups, and a couple of small plates) and that's not good. 4 stars because they got their money's worth. Minus one star because they are not indestructible as I had hoped. The reason I hoped for that was because they mention work use, while I simply washed dishes, and in small quantities at that. :) I will put the third pair on the surface for myself, and it will be finished with work in the flower pots in the photos.
