Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Polder 1169-75 18/8 Stainless Steel Oil Can, Large
Customer Review: Don't believe the description
Summary: 1 Stars
This can is not what's described. It looks the same as the picture, but the description says it's airtight. So untrue! In fact, there is a tiny hole in the lid. Maybe it's a manufacturing defect in the one I got, but it looks intentional to me. For a ~$20 item, I wasn't going to go through the hassle or expense of returning it just to find out the hole was intentional. In any case, let me tell you a little story...
Because the description says the lid is airtight, which I thought would also mean water-tight, I tried mixing my salad dressing directly in the can. I poured in my ingredients, put on the lid and stopper, covered the (intentional or otherwise) hole in the lid with my finger, and proceeded to shake the can to mix the dressing. Huge mistake.
You see, during shaking, the dressing went up into the lid, coating the inside of it. What goes up must come down, and you might think that would be down into the can. But because the lid fits OVER the can opening, and the lid is not airtight, the dressing actually slid back down the inside of the lid to the OUTSIDE of the can. I ended up with dressing leaking down all over the outside of the can, my hands, and the counter where I put the can down. If you just want a serving can for the table, this can is fine. However, for "airtight" mixing or storage, forget it.
Description of Polder 1169-75 18/8 Stainless Steel Oil Can, Large
Serve guests warm French bread with homemade olive oil and balsamic vinegar dipping sauce in this small, stylish oil can from Polder. Constructed of durable 18/8 stainless steel, the sleek dispenser complements any kitchen décor. A sturdy yet graceful handle caps off the can?s elegant presentation. The 16-ounce container also keeps salad dressings and other greasy sauces contained with an airtight, pop-off lid and rubber stopper that fits snug in the spout. Though dishwasher-safe, hand drying or the use of a stainless-steel polish eradicates water spots while ensuring continued shine. The oil can measures 9-1/4 inches high and weighs 1 pound upon shipping. --Jessica ReulingOil Sprayers & Dispensers
