Amazon.com Review: Combining form, function, and style, Typhoon has created a unique line of cookware tools, kitchen gadgets, and dinnerware items that coordinate with a variety of home decors and occasions. Designed with a contemporary flair, many of the housewares products blend a sophisticated sensibility with a retro edginess.
Designed to resemble a watering can, the stylish 17-ounce stainless steel oil can is an essential addition to the kitchen and can also be used on the table. Shaped like a pyramid the 6-1/2-inch tall jug contains a fixed, semi-circular handle and an elegantly long and slender stem with a non-drip lip. A flip top lid makes it easy to pour in olive oil or balsamic vinegar so that guests can enjoy freshly dipped bread, while a shiny, mirror finish adds certain sophistication. And it's suitable for the dishwasher. --Lea Werbel

Since olive oil is a basic necessity in Italian cooking, who wouldn't apperciate this stylish decanter? Stainless steel and sturdy, good handle and well balanced, the only thing I wish I could change is a thinner spout to control a smaller flow of oil. But, I would buy this for a gift for all my foodie friends. Pour on!
Rating: - olive oil dispenser
After looking at many, this little can fits the bill. Looks terrific and well constructed. Easy to fill and lid stays put. two thumbs up.
Rating: - Pretty, but leaks
This can leaks or drips regardless of how slowly oil is poured from it, leaving a ring of olive oil underneath after every use. It's not functional--it's a pain in the neck.
Rating: - Defective - Dispenser Leaks
Looks very nice - polished stainless steel. Seems very functional too with large capacity and a nice long spout for careful pouring. Unfortunately, as soon as I poured oil into it, the dispenser started leaking at the place where the spout is welded to the main body of the dispenser. Bad Chinese quality control I guess. So, if you buy one be prepared to go through an exchange until you get a good quality product.
Rating: - Oil Can
I really like the look of this oil can. It does have one design flaw though. If you fill it to the top with oil it doesn't give you a clean pour and seems to spill a little.
