Product Description
Sleek Aluminum Design, easy to use Gourmet Olive Oil Sprayer by Misto.
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

 Awesome once you know the tricks January 3, 2005

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!
Very handy gadget June 22, 2000

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.

I had my spayer for several years and enjoyed it immensly until the cap split. In reseaching I found this to be a commom problem for many useers. Further research showed Misto had changed the material in the cap due to this issue. Since mine had been bought at the Lechter close out sale i figured it was one of the older models. Not really expecting anything, I researched and found the Misto service address back east and sent them a letter asking how to get a replacement cap. Expecting to be told it was going to cost $12 or more to get one (S & H) I was pleasantly surprised when many weeks later I received a replacement cap in the mail. No letter, note or anthing. Some Customer Service Dept. person just dropped one in a packing envelope and mailed it to me. So Misto is #1 in service for me and my Misto sprayer is happily spraying away again.
It does spayer best if you don't release the pressure between uses and just give it one or two pumps when you use it. It helped me to get a better spay when I re-read the directions. I never run out of pan spay with my Misto.

I've been using Misto sprayers for five years now and would not use anything else for cooking. It's true that the spray is not propelled as strongly and evenly as a canned cooking spray, but it seems like a minor tradeoff for chemical-free cooking.
I have not had a problem with clogging as others have mentioned. I only fill the container partially full and when it empties, clean in hot soapy water (it is true that you will want to clean it frequently, the seal is not airtight and over months, oil will become rancid -- this is why I fill with small amounts). Also, I have primarily used this with olive oil and sesame oil. Many of the reviews which mention clogging specify they are using vegetable cooking oil, which is much thicker than the oils I've used, so your mileage may vary.
Great! May 17, 2000

My husband and I love this. We use it instead of canned spray with propellents. We use it on the grill, to spray a little olive oil on salad, on the pan to fry eggbeaters. We have ordered a second one for lemon olive oil. My husband thinks we should give one to everyone we know.
