Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Chef's Planet 30-Ounce Oil Pourer
Customer Review: Sturdy & Very functional
Summary: 5 Stars
The product in real life looks exactly like the picture. It's a clear glass bottle with a clear glass stopper. There is no gasket -- the glass stopper fits perfectly into the bottle. A small indentation on the backside of the stopper allows air to come in while the oil pours out, and also allows any oil that drips down the pour spout to drain back into the bottle (meaning it is not "air tight" but that's not a big deal for most oils if you go through them regularly.)
It's made out of "borosilicate" glass. The "other" name for borosilicate glass is "Pyrex" (but "Pyrex" is a brand name owned by Corning). In other words... though this looks like delicate glass that's easy to break, it actually will take a bit more shock than ordinarily glass without breaking (I'm sure if you hit it hard enough it would actually break -- but it's not as delicate as it looks.)
I keep this next to my stove as I cook with olive oil regularly. The rate of oil drizzle is actually just about perfect. Fast enough that I don't feel like it's taking to long to drizzle oil into a pan, but slow enough that if I want to drizzle oil over foods (e.g. a light drizzle of EVOO over tomato & mozzarella caprese) I don't have problems controlling the flow.
It's beautiful. It's functional. It doesn't drip. And though it's glass, it's actually fairly sturdy.
30 oz (2 oz. shy of a quart) is a fair bit of oil if you don't use it regularly enough to go through it. The same company makes an 8 oz size (which looks like a flask) Chef's Planet 8-Ounce Glass Cruet and a 5 oz. size Chef's Planet 5-Ounce Glass Cruet probably more appropriate for table-top use.
