Circleware Yorkshire Mini Glass Olive Oil and Vinegar Dispenser Bottles, Set of 2 Kitchen Preserving Glassware for Salad Dressing and Cooking, Home Decor Gifts, 6.5 oz, Clear

My family and I though it would be nice to have restaurant style glass condiment dispensers for our hot pepper oil, sushi vinegar, sesame seed oil, etc.I purchased this set of glass dispensers despite having read all of the negative reviews because I enjoy finding solutions to simple problems.-Yes, the weakest link of these bottles are the metal caps: large enough to screw onto the bottle effortlessly but they leak profusely down the sides without any cap seals/gaskets.+Simple solution: I simply wrapped a few layers of the food grade teflon tape (that I've seen the plumbers use on drinking water filtration system connections) along the screw portion of the bottles and Voila!, no more leaks. Appropriately sized rubber seals inserted inside the caps should also work.-The metal caps have a dispenser hole and are not closable.+Simple solution: I stick a round toothpick (wider than the hole and cut in half) in the dispenser hole to seal it.Overall: nice, effective, and decorative table top glass dispensers but bottle caps should be leakproof right out of the box and shouldn't require a consumer DIY fix-it solution!

Pros; Nice heavy glass with threaded screw top. Square shape is easy to grab.Vinegar works well on your salad. Olive oil works well too. One or two shakes is good.Cons; After you put down the bottle the oil in the cap threads leak down the outside leaving a yellow stain on your table.Solution; The cap needs a thin washer. Since the cap locks tight, with only a quarter turn, it has to be very thin. I used a plastic seal from inside the cap of an aluminum pint can and cut it to size. If it's cut slightly larger in diameter than the screw cap it will stay in the cap. In the picture. I made the washer hole ragged, to distinguish the clear material. This washer is also safe for food use.

Look great, very retro but the caps, or more specifically the fact there are no washers inside the cap tops which result in both oil and vinegar leaking out after each use. Was going to toss them but found 2 o rings to use as washers which solved the problem. Still only 1 star as this problem has been reported by purchasers for years!

I added balsamic vinegar to the bottle and the spout isn't tight enough to form a leak-proof seal. I had to use some Teflon tape to stop it from leaking and make it usable.

The tops are poorly milled metal that does not securely hold in the liquid. I was intending to use it for dispensing balsamic and white vinegar. No amount of tightening worked. Only buy this if you intend to not put any liquid into it!

Used with olive oil in the bottle. Leaked all over the counter multiple times.Good: glass bottle, not plastic. Lid/nozzle is metal.Bad: Lid/nozzle leaks. The thread between the glass bottle and metal cap is a course thread. When the bottle is inverted, oil is trapped in the thread. Then when put back on the counter, the oil dripped out of the thread and down the bottle. Might be fine with vinegar?

No matter how tight you screw on the tops, these leak like crazy. We ended up throwing them away. Don't waste your time or money. Don't buy these.

There is no washer in the cap so the vinegar and oil drip from the cap of each container after using.This is a very poor design.

I only gave these bottles 4 stars, because they leak, but one solution is an O-Ring. The one I used is an R-14, ID- 13/16”, OD- 1”, cross section - 3/32” —-, or - AS568 O-Ring standard #117. There was another suggestion to use plumbers tape, or Teflon tape. There is a solution….

Do not buy.Not adequately sealed. Oil/vinegar drips down the sides after that use. Not very noticeable during use but enough to leave a ring underneath between uses. Very annoying

Update:Thanks to someone else's review and their tip about adding a small elastic to act as a washer, this product now works well.Good design, doesnt take up too much space in the fridge however.. it leaks from where the lid is tightened as there is no washer included otherwise this would get a 5 star review.

Was surprised that when I went looking for these in my area, I couldn't find any traditional restaurant vinegar dispensers so had to buy these. 2 is perfect because I love Malt as well as White vinegar.Size is just.. alright. A little pricey.

I put vinegar in one, it was finePut oil in the other, and it leaks and runs down the sides of the bottleFor the price though, can’t complain too much
