Know before you buy
The brush features tapered outer bristles for precise, even coating, while the perforated center flaps act as a reservoir to hold more liquid. This combination allows you to cover more surface area with fewer trips back to the bowl.
Yes, the brush is heat-resistant up to 425°F. It is safe to use for brushing glazes onto meats while they are on the grill or in the oven.
No. Because it is made from 100% platinum-cured, pharmaceutical-grade silicone, the material is naturally resistant to stains, odors, and microbes.
Not at all. The silicone construction is dishwasher safe, and because it is non-porous, thick sauces and oils wash off easily even if you prefer to hand-wash it.
The handle is designed with a grippy, ergonomic texture that provides a secure hold, even if your hands are wet or greasy from cooking.
