Product Description

Amazon.com Review
For spreading olive oil evenly on bruschetta, focaccia, and grilled or roasted vegetables, and for spraying muffin and cake pans with vegetable oil, this dispenser is a nifty tool. A plastic cap underneath the sprayer's top twists off so the sprayer can be half-filled (1/3 cup) with oil. Inside the top is a plastic tube that fits over the spray nozzle. Push the top up and down to pump air pressure into the canister. Then spray for 10 seconds and pump up again. It's simple, ingenious, and practical. With its cap on, the sprayer stands just 7-5/8 inches high, so it tucks away easily on any countertop. Made of satin-finish aluminum with a black-band accent, it's sleek as well as utilitarian. --Fred Brack

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome once you know the tricks, January 3, 2005

By	L. A. Kane (Seattle, WA USA) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)

Works great, especially with olive oil, but there are a couple of tricks to getting the most out of it. First, fill it only half way. Second, if you twist the top after each use to release the pressure you can avoid clogging problems. My first one lasted only a year or so because I had not learned that 'releasing the pressure' trick and the nozzle got irreparably clogged. Even hot soapy water didn't fix the problem. A chef friend of mine told me how to avoid the trouble. Since then, the replacement has been going strong for over two years now. Nice even spray with no clogging. Great gadget. I use it all the time!

5.0 out of 5 stars Very handy gadget, June 22, 2000

By	Jeremy York "-beanish-" (Bothell, WA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

We grill a lot of vegetables in my household (both on the grill, and in the oven in the wintertime), and this is a great device. Gives a light, uniform coating of oil to the veggies. Other things I use it for include oiling pans, my grill, and for misting the top of an italian pie or calzone with olive oil before baking for a nice golden color. Also, if you coat chicken in a bread crumb mixture, spray it with oil, and then bake it, it comes out crispy on the outside...a healthy alternative if you miss the taste of fried chicken.

We have one, and are ordering a second, so that we can have one for olive oil and another for a lighter vegetable oil.

About the only complaint I have is that if you pump it up too much, the oil mists too well! You'll get a light coating of oil on whatever you're spraying, but there will also be this cloud of tiny oil droplets hanging in the air. What I've learned from experience is just not to pump it up too much.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good, but a bit of work ;), November 20, 2000

When I first filled this sprayer and gave it a few pumps, yes..nothing happened and I felt a bit cheated. Then, I gave it a few more pumps and then it became very difficult to press the lid down and that is the secret. You can't really over pump the sprayer.

Once the pressure build up inside the plastic container inside, you will find it works quite well. You also have the option of placing a sticker on each misto sprayer. I bought one for olive oil and one for vegetable oil.

What do I use if for most of the time? Bread baking. Yes, it is perfect to spray oil over bread dough to keep it moist when rising. Then you can use it when frying steaks or vegetables. I have used it a few times when preparing salads. It is also handy for greasing pans. One word of caution: keep the spray over a sink or stove top. You don't want oil on the kitchen floor.
