Folks, this is a heavy brush and it is a good brush! I, like many others have use either a nylon or plastic-ish sort of brushes for years and was just a bit leery of "silicone." My goodness, resistance to change is certainly a sign of getting older I suppose, but it is also a big time impediment when it comes to doing things better and easier. This basting brush is oh so much better than the ones I was using before...both on the grill and in the oven.

This is a very reasonably priced well built tool and it is big and heavy. I've no doubt that if the circumstances were right, you could use it as some sort of defensive weapon. But of course that is not what you buy it for. You buy it to slather stuff on other stuff so that it will taste better when you eat it. This brush more than fulfills its calling in life. It allows a smooth flow and allows you to regulate the amount of what ever it is you are smearing on your food as you cook. As a big time plus for me, you can put this thing in the dishwasher. That may not seem like much, but cleaning one of the old type basting brushes could be a real pain and a bit time consuming...they certainly were not built for dishwashers, which since I am the official dishwasher in our household, is quite at the top of my list of things I want and this has made my life much easier.

I like Weber products; buy them when ever they are available, and I certainly have not been unhappy with this purchase. Unless I do something real stupid, which does happen now and again, this brush should last me for years! I may quite well put this item in my will.

Grilling tip for you: I bought this as a replacement brush for the one I have had used for a couple of years. I found that if you become distracted and lay the basting brush...any basting brush, over the open flames of a grill and leave it there, it will burn. This causes a horrid mess and the smell is not pleasing. When grilling, you got to keep your head in the game and let others yell at the dogs.

I never expected a heavy, stainless-steel handled basting brush like this for the reasonable price: Weber does it again!

If you are looking for a lightweight silicone brush, however, this is NOT it. This is heavy and should last a lifetime - and for that, I am very, very appreciative.

This thing is heavy duty! Looks and works great! Holds liquids great! You will not be dissapointed!

This Weber baster is very heavy duty and high quality. It looks nice and feels like it will last a long time. I have used it about 10 times so far and it spreads nicely. It is exactly what I was looking for, a great product.

Good looking brush which had some weight to it. cleaned up nice in the dish washer. only thing was it didn't have the weber symbol on it

I've had a lot of people tell me a brush is a brush and that spending any more than $2 for one is a big waste of money. I disagree with that big time, especially after I bought my Weber brush. Over the years, I've used those normal brushes and for the most part, they are okay but I could never get them to hold a good amount of liquid. With this Weber brush, not only can I brush on liquid less frequently, but the cleanup is a lot easier too. It's a timesaver in during and after cooking!

Quality is what you would expect from Weber. The first thing I thought of when I held mind is: "WOW THIS THING IS SOLID". It's weighted nicely and fits pretty well in my hands. The only con I can see is the end of the brush is not as round. You can potentially use it as a weapon!

I was uncertain about a silicone basting brush, but this works well. The effect of the bristles is a little different from what you'd get with a plastic or nylon brush, but it does a good job of spreading the sauce and juices around on the meat (which is what it's meant to do after all). It is huge, however, as you might expect for a grilling basting brush meant to be used over high heat. The length is also useful for basting within the oven. My wife doesn't like it because she thinks it is too large to fit in our utensil canister, and because it's a bit too tall to fit upright in the silverware basket of our dishwasher. I lay it down flat, and it cleans just fine, and doesn't retain that oily residue as the old nylon brush did. It's a manly tool for manly men, and I use it constantly. Recommended.

I saw this silicone basting brush on PBS show "Primal Grill". It holds sauces very well and I love the beautiful design. Thank you again Weber.

Nice solid stainless brush, but unlike most all other Weber accessories, there is no way to hang this item. To me that is a disappointment. I may try and drill through the handle..

well its too cold to use outside on the grill. but this thing has some weight to it, which is a good thing. very solid and its weber so im lookin forward to using it.
