Superior with one assembly step.
Product is superior to the glu-bot when a simple mod is done. The glu-bot uses rubber seals that fail really quickly. This uses a kind of tongue and groove type setup, but can leak. Adding a layer of glue around the bottle portion seals this. Because of the high silicone (I assume) the glue does not make a good bond and can easily be broken free. This seals the unit to be air tight and with an easily replaceable, nearly free gasket.I find the product to be more flexible than the glue bot. Overall I rate this as an excellent purchase and prefer this over the much more expensive competitor.Only product improvement is some type of cap keeper system, I set mine down and often takes me a minute to find.

Where have you been all my life?
I bought this glue bottle after getting tired of constantly digging dried glue out of my Titebond bottle tips. I wish I had bought one of these years ago. It works perfectly, allowing me to control the amount of glue, with no drips, and the cap over the glue nozzle seals very well. I tried the biscuit/domino tip and it does a very nice job of spreading the glue in the mortice. There is a threaded top to the cap that holds the top not in use.If I had any suggestion to make, it would be to provide a place for the tip cap while glueing. In the shop this it is easy enough to keep track of the cap, but on a job site I the caps could be easily lost. I also wish a Titebond bottle fit inside the neck of the bottle to make it easier to transfer glue, but I guess I can't have everything.

Does as it says
Works as intended. Brand always comes through it arrived without issue and has been working very well. Makes application of adhesive so much easier.

It is okay, but I do prefer the OG glue bottle over this
I bought this as I see them being used by woodworkers on YouTube here and there. It does work, but honestly, I feel just using the glue bottle is easier and often I reach for that, and not this container of glue. I will say this is nice when you only need a small amount of glue dispensed. So, yea it works, but mine just collects dust mostly and is almost starting to pop up on that list woodworkers have of tools I don't know why I bought.

Fine, well designed product for the price.
This is a fine, well-designed product for the price. The product is particularly useful in that there is a cap on top as well as 2 different tips for applying glue. One glue tip can sit on dispenser while second tip fits as a replacement for refill cap vent. Each tip cover is small and very prone to getting lost. Therefore, I would have preferred a plastic teether securing each cover to a its tip. However, one gets what one pays for, which is why I included a caveat about price in headline.

Stop Putting This Off!
Why did I keep putting this off?! Now that I finally got it, I wish I had done so years ago. Easy to use. Easy to clean up after. Easy to store away. And easy to use again after pulling it back out a week later.

perfect replacement...
I had the "other" brand's glue bottle. It worked for about a year but then the bottle begins to deform and the top starts to leak air which makes the bottle useless. I noticed the problem lied in the bottle's screw cap. It is too flimsy.So I decided to go with another brand. So far I like this bottle better. The screw cap is sturdier and the grooves are deeper. I don't foresee having the same issue.The cap that goes over the nozzle is not tethered which worries me that I will lose it. But I also like that the tether is not in the way.

a couple of issues of not sealing where it should and shouldn't
The large cap does not seal properly and air escapes from the top when you squeeze the bottle. It makes it hard to get any glue out because all the air pressure is lost through the top instead of pushing glue out of the tip.The yellow cap that should fit on the dowel/biscuit tip does not fit. It doesn't "snap" so it is just sitting on the tip and doesn't seal the tip closed.
