The present invention relates to a pot gripper (1) comprising a first lever (2) and a second lever (3) being joined at a fulcrum (4) The first lever has (2) a first jaw (5) extending from the fulcrum (4) and the second lever (3) has a second jaw (6) extending from the fulcrum (4). The first jaw (5) and the second jaw (6) define a clamping area for a pot when the first lever (2) and second lever (3) are rotated from an open position (OP) into a closed position (CP). The present invention is characterized in that the first jaw (5) has at least one support slot (7), the support slot (7) being shaped to fit to the contour of a gripping area of the pot to be held in the clamping area. The present invention is further characterized in that the first lever (2) has a first locking means (8) and the second lever (3) has a second locking means (9), and the first locking means (8) engages with the second locking means (9) in the closed position (CP), so that the first lever (2) and the second lever (3) are locked in the closed position (CP).
