OXO Good Grips Extra-Large Silicone Basting Brush - 1 Piece

Curtis L. Gunter: We noticed early on that this basting brush easily sheds its bristles. Not the typical quality we expect from OXO products - a real disappointment.

KFromOhio: Excellent quality and sturdiness. I like the silicon brushes, and definitely the special middle section that helps retain product being spread. While a large handle, it is NOT as large as I was expecting for grilling purposes. So if you're needing to take some time basting over a hot grill, especially if a full grill, you'll potentially need to wear grilling gloves. Also a better design would have had a hole in the handle end to hang it with. The slight angle for keeping brushes from touching a surface is a good idea, but should have also had a hole for hanging on grill hooks. I could recommend, but do note a couple of the items mentioned to improve.

Charles: Its good but expensive.

It has a slight angle. I don't see how this help with anything but it make storage a bit awkward.

Guy Cooper: I think these are marvelous as I had ordered 2 of them for use, inside when cooking and outside on the BBQ grill that I have. They hold the oil really well, they are heat resistance so that the parts of the brush don't melt, drop off, or cause a problem while cooking, if you do a lot of BBQ food like I do, then think of using this as some of the other brushes I have tried end up melting or falling apart too easily. These brushes are wonderful and easy to clean also, I highly recommend them to anyone cooking.

as you wish: Since I can't seem to find a good bristle brush anymore, I had high hopes for this brush. I must say, it's a lot better than other silicone ones that I have tried. If all you've used is a bristle brush, this will take a bit of getting used to, but so far I am happy with it. We use it at the bbq. I have not tried it for pastry. A big plus is that you can lay it down and because the head of the brush has a slight angle to it, the saucy bristles don't leave a mess on the counter/bbq. Also no more loose bristles stuck in the cooked food!

JPG: I owned this exact same baster before, and sadly it went missing. I bought a cheaper one and immediately regretted it. This one is so well made, works perfectly, and is a breeze to clean. It also has the highest heat rating of any I looked at, so it’s perfect for the bbq!

Sara L.: Toma en cuenta que es grande, si eres chaparrito o chaparrita como yo, quizá te sientas intimidad@ con el tamaño del mango y te sea difícil maniobrar con ella, sin embargo, su calidad es excelente, la goma es duradera y las fibras pintan perfectamente cualquier preparación sea con grasa, agua o leche. La volvería a comprar sin duda, de hecho, la volví a comprar, en ambos casos les mandé recortar la punta del mango con una sierra y me gustan mucho más.

Andrew Smith: Main Use: Grilling
I purchased this for applying sauces to meats and vegetables while grilling. I have used it 10+ times so far and here are my findings:
-The center circle mesh portion holds onto sauces for easy transport but easily transfer the sauces to the items being grilled, allowing for ample, easy application of thick sauces (such as BBQ or mayonnaise based sauces). I have not tried this on a watery sauce (such as a vinegar base).
-Wide bristles make for quick coverage when in use.
-The bristles have come into contact with the hot grill grates multiple times and have not deformed or begun to melt.
-Clean up is a breeze since the brush is dish washer safe. I'll let it soak in the sink until I load it in the dish washer. I have NOT had a time where it comes out of the washer with bits of "gunk" still in the bristles.
- Long handle keeps your hands away from the heat so you don't char your knuckle hair or burn your hand.
- However, handle is short enough for storage in a drawer or counter-top tool caddy.

Overall, I would recommend this product for anyone looking for a cost effective, easy to use and clean grill brush.

Ralph Furlong: I was looking for a replacement for a regular wood handled brush that I had used for years. Found this one and thought I would give it a try. Here is what I found:

1. There are two rows of bristles with a row of flat perforated pieces of silicon between them. I presume the function of that middle row is to hold sauce in the holes. So, it does not hold sauce the same way that a regular brush does. It works, but I am still deciding if I like the way it works.

2. The angled head on the brush is good in one aspect, but bad in another. Good in that it provides an easy angle, bad in that the angle only works in one direction! Try using the other side and it is a real pain in the wrist!! So, you really only have one working side to this brush.

3. The bristles and the brush do not seem to be bothered by the heat of the barbeque.

4. It has survived one washing in the top rack of the dish washer. Time will tell how it does over the long haul.

Overall, I like the concept, just not completely sold yet on the execution. That is the way change works sometimes. Maybe I just need a bit of time to get adjusted to it. So, I will give it a four star for now and...
