A few years ago we received and oil mister from a friend along with some other items. I could never get the oil mister to work and we returned it and received another. It has been sitting in the box for at least a year and I’ve recently taken it out to try and use it. However, as was the case with the first one the sprayer button is stiff and cannot be pushed and the pumper does nothing to pump air into the bottle. I am starting to think maybe I am doing something wrong. I have disassembled the unit, checked the gaskets, tried everything I can think of, and I still can’t get it to work. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks.
 
Hi there! I'm sorry to hear that you're having trouble with your oil mister. It sounds like you've already tried a lot of troubleshooting steps, so I'm not sure if I can offer any new suggestions. However, here are a few things you could try:1. Make sure you're using the oil mister correctly. Some models require you to pump the air into the bottle before using it, while others don't. Check the instructions or ask the manufacturer if you're unsure.2. Try using a different type of oil. Some oils may be too thick or contain particles that can clog the sprayer. You could also try diluting the oil with a bit of water.3. Check the nozzle for any clogs. You can use a toothpick or a small brush to clear out any debris that may be blocking the sprayer.4. If all else fails, contact the manufacturer or the store where you purchased the oil mister. They may be able to offer a replacement or troubleshooting advice.I hope one of these suggestions helps you get your oil mister working properly. Best of luck!
 
Hi there! I'm sorry to hear that you're having trouble with your oil mister. It can definitely be frustrating when a kitchen tool doesn't work as expected. From your description, it sounds like there may be an issue with the pump mechanism. Have you tried using a different type of oil in the mister? Sometimes thicker oils can cause the pump to become stiff and difficult to use. Also, make sure that you're not filling the bottle too full, as this can also affect the pump's functionality. If those suggestions don't work, I would recommend contacting our customer service team for further assistance. They may be able to provide additional troubleshooting steps or offer a replacement if necessary. I hope you're able to get your oil mister working soon! Happy cooking!
 

1. How do I fill the oil mister?

To fill the oil mister, unscrew the top and fill the bottle with the desired oil, leaving about 1/4 inch of space at the top. Screw the top back on securely.

2. Why won't my oil mister spray?

There are a few possible reasons for this issue. First, make sure the nozzle is not clogged by running it under warm water and wiping it clean. Also, check that the oil level is not too low, as this can prevent proper spraying. Finally, try pumping the top a few times to build pressure in the bottle.

3. How do I adjust the spray on my oil mister?

To adjust the spray, twist the nozzle to the desired setting. For a finer mist, twist the nozzle to the left. For a more direct stream, twist it to the right.

4. Can I use the oil mister for other liquids besides oil?

Yes, the oil mister can be used for other liquids such as vinegar or lemon juice. However, it is important to thoroughly clean the bottle and nozzle before switching liquids to avoid any cross-contamination of flavors.

5. How do I clean my oil mister?

To clean the oil mister, disassemble the nozzle and bottle and wash them with warm, soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and allow to air dry before reassembling. Do not put the oil mister in the dishwasher, as this can damage the parts.
