This product leaks and makes a big mess! I kept having to wipe up batter from the counter top due to a slow leak at the base/handle of the dispenser. I don't recommend this item!

This thing leaks so badly. I know this thing is cheap but just don't waste your money...

I had previously given this item a 1 star because it leaked horribly. After contacting their customer service they offered to take back the item and even paid for postage and would ship another replacement BUT only if I removed my initial negative review. I agreed to remove it and wait for the replacement but apparently I did not remove the review correctly or they didn't see the updated removal or whatever. They subsequently sent me what I perceived to be a stern email stating the "I had promised to remove this review in return for a replacement dispenser". That said, I asked for a refund because I did not like their tone in their emails nor their requirement to remove negative comments in order to obtain a replacement for what was a DEFECTIVE ITEM in the first place!! They should stand behind the items they sell regardless whether a customer posts negative information about it. I even offered to post positive feedback once I received the replacement and tested it to make sure the 2nd one worked. Guess that wasn't good enough and they would rather lose a customer over a $13 item. So be it..consider it done...

They said they have issued a refund and I'm glad I won't be doing business with them any further...

Had to add this comment--anyone who gives this item 5 stars either works for this company or is using a different brand because this thing did nothing but leak...when I say leak..I mean constant puddle of batter on my counter which is why I went back to the good old bowl with pouring lip and spatula...works better than this piece of junk!!! I'm starting to question all these "positive" reviews that I see on Amazon because when I've used various products that were inferior YET I see all these raves reviews it makes me question the integrity of these reviews...no way the exact same product worked differently...sorry, I just don't believe any of these 5 star reviews...the product simply doesn't warrant 5 stars to begin with..it's not that good. If the thing leaks..then it doesn't do what it promises....how can anyone gives this item a pass when it doesn't do what it was designed to do..HOLD BATTER!!

After using the item maybe 2 times and falling in love the plastic tab that attaches to the metal piece to pull the bottom shut between each pancake disconnected. After contacting the company and receiving no help what so ever I am left with a broken product. Save your money and buy the expensive one first.

Got this for Christmas and it leaks everywhere! Impossible to use, no matter what viscosity the batter is. Considered returning but since the vendor's policy shows I have to pay shipping---too much bother for this price! Guess you get what you pay for, this is cheap and CHEAP! Do not buy!

Initially loved this product. In fact, I ordered my daughter one immediately after using mine the first time; however, second time I used it it poured batter. Tried it with pancake batter and muffin mix and the results were the same. Wish it had worked properly because the concept is wonderful. Now I have two dispensers and neither works.

I purchased this item this summer, less than a month ago. I have used it twice. Yesterday while I was washing it by hand, I noticed that where the stand is attached to the container, it is rusting. I am very disappointed in this product. While I like using it, I don't know how long it will last. I have not had a problem with it leaking like other reviewers have stated. I just don't like the idea that it is rusting.

I have used this 10 times now since buying and it leaked every time. If you like your batter a little more runny than usual then be ready to clean up a mess. I hate waste and usually there is enough leakage to make one pancake.

I'll probably sell it at a garage sale for $1 and next time, I'll be spending a little bit more on a better product.

Shame on me. Didn't read the reviews. This is useless as it leaks. Looks nice.

I was very disappointed with this product. On the first use, it leaked constantly! I bought the batter dispenser to help pancake-making be less messy, not more so! The product does dispense good pancakes, but it constantly leaks between dispenses. Don't buy it!
