Thank you so much for doing reviews like this. There are WAY TOO MANY unreliable product reviews on pretty much every site. With the ever rising prices, it's people like you - pointing out the good, the bad and the middle ground - who make it possible for buyers to make better informed decisions on purchases instead of wasting their money on something.
Not sure where y'all are purchasing your Glue Press through but Maymay Made it sells it for $34.99 and I applied my Club Member discount and got an additional 15% off. I love mine. I made 9 large beaded crosses for my grandchildren for Christmas and used my Glue Press to adhere the beads. It was perfect for gluing tiny micro seed beads down to the board. I've had no problems at all with the metal tips.
I bought this glue press, a couple of months ago. Only paid $35 and it is well worth it to me. I have arthritis in my hands and struggle with squeezing. I appreciate your opinion but for someone with problems with their hands, it's a life saver. I use mine with Art Glitter Glue.
Thanks for your review. I bought this press because continued use of my fingers to hold and squeeze the glue out has become painful. Both of the bottles I received, work. I highly recommend you contact the company you purchased the press from and request a replacement bottle. The worse thing that could happen is they would say “no”. You have a good and honest reputation in this industry and I think they would believe you and want to make you satisfied.
I absolutely love my Glue Press. I have had it for a couple months now and have not had any issues whatsoever with it. I love being able to grab it and apply glue without worrying about clogging. I accidentally left it in the stand when I went away for a week at Christmas…can’t home picked it up and still no clog…worked flawlessly. Since then I have left it in the stand without the cap and never had a problem with it! I have recommended it to a few friends who have bought it and they love it too!
I love my glue press too! I got it when I first saw it. I have problems with my hands sometimes. This is fantastic for me! I do caution everyone to BE SURE YOU PUSH THE BOTTLE ALL THE WAY INTO THE APPLICATOR.
I will never buy from this company. As this product is for crafters having issues with their hands, I firmly believe this “glue gun” should be available for a third of the price, including all it comes with. Just so that these crafters can continue doing what they love. I feel like this company is taking advantage of crafters. Having issues with hands or not! Thank you for your honest opinion 👍
I always learn something when I get your honest opinions. $45 is a LOT of money for that. I saved some money because of you. Thank you for your review!
The same thing happened to me with the tips. BOTH of them just disappeared very soon after I starting using it! I thought perhaps they fell down inside the bottle. I used a bamboo skewer and fishes around and couldn’t find it. I ended up actually emptying the glue out hoping to find it. No luck. I contacted the company - going back and forth a couple of times on email. They said my only choice was to buy more bottles. As unhappy as I was about that, I felt I had no choice after investing so much in the unit itself. Love the press, but not happy with the company right now.
This makes me angry, but doesn't surprise me. Their response goes along with the overall company reputation. I really didn't want to give this company any of my money and your comment sealed the deal for me. Thank you.
I had heard this with someone else's review as well. If I needed to have it due to dexterity issues, I'd do it. However, her CS issues & my figuring that research & devevelopment plus manufacturing costs = huge profits per item. I will pass. Thanks also Sherry!
Check the lids as they stick to the pins after you use them it happened to mine. Get some pointy pliers and pull it out then push them back in the bottle. Hope that helps, hopefully you haven't thrown them away
I stand with you on the cost of the glue press. I could use that money for more crafting supplies and my Reptile Glue. Love that glue. Thanks for recommending the Reptile Glue Sherry. Been using it about 2 1/2 years now.
I don't think this is a product I will ever use, however, I wanted you to know how much I appreciate your comments about accessibility for someone who might have physical issues. The craft community has many members who have different levels of ability and knowing what might help or cause problems for them is great information to have in a review.
Sherry, thanks for the demonstration, nicely done. The glue press is too expensive for me, I'm thinking it shouldn't be no more than $25.00 taxes included. I'm sticking with the glue bottles.
I agree with you. I am using the glue gun, but it has not been without some issues. I have not found the tip to rest well in the holder. I actually am using a piece of silicone in the bottom of a glass with a sugarbelle icing bottle filled with my favorite glue. No drips. Super easy to squeeze. I appreciate your review. Wish I had seen it before purchasing. Thank you!
Thank you so very much for your honesty!!! I had carpal tunnel surgery last year and still have a few (minor) aches in my wrist. Thinking the trigger valve on this glue gun might make it worsen. Thanks again, I'll save the money and continue with my smaller, less bulky fine tip bottles. Most appreciative.
Appreciate your honest review. I recently purchased the blue small bottles you suggested and are very pleased. They are soft and easier to use no need to buy the glue gun!
Thank you for an honest review. So many other people have been raving about this tool and all I saw was another oversized item that took up more room on my table and was hard to pack for travel.
For 40 bucks. I can buy several bottles of glue & just combine the ½ empty ones together while I use another. I have 4 or 5 tiny applicators that I refill using a syringe & Ranger's (TH) collage paste or matt medium. I store them tip down & they're always primed. I say all this with horrible arthritis in my thumbs. Appreciate the review! This is a luxury item & not where I live.
Thank for your opinion. The same thing happened to me with the larger tip. I've tried contacting them with no reply. I did order new tips but postage was as much as the tips. It beneficial for me because of arthritis. But glad that I've been affirmed with the tip. Enjoyed your video.
Great tutorial about the glue press. I brought mine for $75 Australia plus shipping. Lucky my 2 bottles all complete. I feel not worth the money too. I put art glitter glue in my empty bottel. I do have hand problems but I can still use the bottles you have for my glue to. Cheaper to. As I brought it I be using mine to I gotta try reptile glue I hope I can find it as in Australia I don't know I can get it as shipping in cold temperatures they don't ship as having a hard time purchasing art glitter glue. Thank you for sharing.. ❤👍🙏😊
I bought it and i love it. I had so much trouble with clogging in regular glue bottles. It was expensive, but i think I'm saving money overall with not wasting glue, time and frustaton.
Thank you for your honest review! All the famous crafters tout this item and I would never pay $50 for that! These US companies try to rip us off all the time! I buy everything that is identical to US products from Aliexpress at 1/8th the price!!
Thanks for the review. This product is $70 in Australia and I just cannot justify it even though I have arthritis in my hands. Just like in your comments ive seen people who love & people who don't. If it was cheaper I might try it ❤
Disclaimer I'm not the crafter, my daughter is, but I enjoy your channel just for the creativity. I've now seen several of these Precision Glue Press reviews and I must say this is the most concise and informative. I feel like I got the best bottom line analysis of what this product actually does in the shortest amount of time. Though honestly it's not something I was considering buying, I still enjoyed watching just because this is really well done review!
Thanks for the review. Most of the people I follow have really like it and only one said it hurt her arthritus. I would contact the folks you bought it from to see if they would replace the bottle that lost the pin. I have never heard of that happening before! TFS! ❤
I am subscribing to your channel based on your honest review of this. Thank you for being one of the few that states her own opinion, not based on being paid by the company. I’m impressed!!!😊
Great review. It took me a long time to purchase this item as well because of the price. I do like it, but again the price. I totally agree with your review. It could be made better for the price. But I enjoy using it and I will use it because of the price. Thank you so much for your authenticity and transparency. This is one of the best, RUclips channels for crafting.
Thank you, Sherry for this information. I do have hand problems. So much that I have almost stopped crafting. I find so much inspiration from you. I LOVE your boxes crafting. I love Making things that help me organize my stuff.
I also got mine for $35 shortly after it came out. I had to get on a waiting list as initially they flew off the shelves. I have hand troubles. The press allows me to be able to craft longer. I highly recommend it to those who have arthritis or any other hand mobility or pain issue that detracts from your favorite hobby. My glue came solid not fluid. They sent a coupon to replace it but the cost was a little less than the new bottles. I used it when a free shipping deal was out. It does need a more dense glue. I put a thinner glue in the spare bottle and it flowed out. It does not clog unless I forget to cap it overnight. All day sessions and no clogs. ❤ it.
I got one of these for Christmas from one of my crafting friends. I personally don’t know how I ever lived without it! No glue problems and no tip problems falling out. It works perfectly! Much easier than using the glue bottles! I will never quit using it. Prior to having this I had problems with my metal tip bottles clogging all the time even using reptile glue! Thanks for sharing and demonstrating for us and giving your honest opinion. You always have great ideas and suggestions! ❤
I too thought a long while to buy one but began having trouble with my thumb. It does allow me to glue with much less pain. But like yours the metal nozzle came off of the large nozzle bottle. It still works but has a very large flow and does clog as it no longer touches the silicone pad.
Thank you for your honest and thorough review. I have the glue press and love mine. Bought mine during warmer months so had no issues, also Nuevo glue is what I typically use. Also chose to buy this product to help me have more comfort while crafting due to carpal tunnel syndrome to both wrists and this has significantly helped with my comfort level. It is very expensive, and agree not for everyone,but for me it was money well spent.
I have this glue dispenser. It is awesome! For me it was a game changer. They are a great company to work with. If you contact them I am sure they will take care of the cap that the tip came out of. I have never seen it for over $34.99. I waited to get mine once I found a site with free shipping. The glue that came with it is a thicker glue. It worked fine with the fine tip but I too filled my empty bottle with Reptile glue and put the fine tip on that bottle to use most of the time. The Reptile glue and this dispenser helps me to work faster & cleaner. No clogs or spitting & sputtering.
Thank you for your review. Appreciate you taking the time to do this. When you were closing out, young kids came into the room. They wanted to hear your ending again. Thank you for adding that. It led to a nice discussion on what they can do to make someone smile. Can’t thank you enough!
I love my glue press also. I had mine for a few months and no problems at all. Would recommend it. Light weight and like the two different nozzles. Thick or thin. The fact you can fill your favorite glue in the bottles. I leave it in the cradle all the time and never have a problem with the flow.
Sheila, once you had a chance to use it, please come back and leave another comment. Since you have actually had hand surgery, your experience will be so helpful😀
Thank you for your review. It is unfortunate that you paid $10.00 more than it costs on the Sweet Petunia website and other sellers' websites I do like it, and I did not mind paying $34.99.
I absolutely love this glue press. It has saved me so much time. I have refilled my bottles over and over. You should ask for a replacement. I also did not pay $45. Sorry you didn’t like it. I hope crafters are not turned off by the review.
Thank you! I am an Aleene's Tacky Glue user from way back and my hands aren't always up to the challenge. And of course my stash far exceeds my usage. Something like this would be appealing to use but I totally agree that it's overpriced for a piece of plastic. I'll wait to find an off-brand to pop-up eventually. ❤
Thank You Sherry for doing this Review!! I've seen people advertising this on their channels, like Simon Hurley, but they make $ off of people buying thus from their Links. I've been on the Fence about the Glue Press the other week I was gonna buy it, but it was sold out again. Turns out Good thing it was. After Watching ur Review here .. I Don't need it. I use needle tip bottles kinda like urs & I don't have any trouble squeezing them. Like u said, maybe down the road if that becomes a problem, I'll consider the Glue Press. Also I Agree w/ You .. I think the Price is too High. Cuz were Paying for their Company Name. I definitely think it needs to be Cheaper!! Again, TY Sherry for doing this Review!! I Love that You do Videos like this. Especially Love ur Honesty in them!!😉☺️ Take Care & Have a Great Day!! ☺️ TFS!!🥰🥰
^This! Thanks Sherry for your honest opinion. So far, my hands are working to just use a regular bottle. If things change, then I’ll look into getting this.
Sherry, I bought a Glue Press last year. I have BURSITIS in both thumbs and this has been a game changer for me. I also use a different glue in it. I also bought 2 replacement bottles for other things ( aka Crystal Glaze, etc) ❤❤❤ I LOVE mine. But I did buy it back before it got cold. ❤❤❤ Thank you for your honesty. It was VERY handy for Christmas cards and projects for Christmas.
I love the Precision Glue Press (Press from now on) which was given to me as a gift. I was always adhesive-challenged getting glue everywhere. Since using the Press my papers are not covered with glue. The Press really does help with precision and if you keep the tip on the pad, the glue doesn't clog. I was going to buy a second Press for my Acorn fabric glue,I use when sewing, since Acorn constantly clogs. My cousin reminded me that two bottles came with the Press. The second bottle is clear, so I can tell the different glues apart. It is wonderful and made using the Acorn fabric glue much easier.
Hi, I am enjoying your critique. I, too, had an issue with the tip of one of my bottles. The metal tip stuck to the pin in the cap, and I had to do glue bottle surgery. I got it separated by soaking cap in hot water to melt the glue and used jewelry pliers to get the pin back into the bottle. I was like you, not tempted to buy until I talked to friends who bought. I've come to reach for it every time i need liquid glue. So far, my bottle that I did surgery on is working fine now. Can't wait to see more of your videos!
I have a precision glue press and I absolutely love it. I have not had any problems with the bottles or the tips. And you can purchase separately additional glue bottles.
Thank you for this review. I have hand and finger arthritis problems and some problems with glue bottles. I also find that when i put my glue in metal tip bottles, they always clog. I have looked at this and have not purchased due to the cost. If the price comes down, i may purchase.
Hi, my glue press was delivered on a very cold day too and sat on my front porch for a few hours. But I let the glue sit for a couple weeks in my craft room while I used my own glue in the other bottle and now the cold one works fine. I really like the press. I also watched Simon Hurley and he gave a few important tips about using it. Oh, one of the tips of his bottles got stuck and unable to be used too. Mine has never clogged either. Agree though that it is priced high for what it is.
Sometimes your the windshield .... sometimes your the bug !!! You are right. It is very expensive. I just put my glue in a jar upside down when I am using it .... and when I am done I clean off the tip and reseal it. Where do you get the glue you are referring to. I looked an Amazon and it is not available there.
I am so sorry you had problems with your press and glue. If you contact the company,they should. Send you a new bottle of glue. I took awhile to purchase as well. I payed less than you, but I am glad I purchased it. I have problems with my hand . The first couple of presses were a little hard for me. Now the glue flows with ease. I never loose my cap and don't have to be concerned with glue clogging on my bottles. I will be purchasing the new bottles you use with the blue cap for my granddaughters. I really like the glue press. It's a winner for me.
Hey, I bought this little Sweet Petunia several weeks ago and put my reptile glue in it and I am loving it. Was a good buy for me. Don't care for their glue--I love my Reptile Glue. Thanks, Pat
I have arthritis in my hands and love this tool. I was so tired of always having my glue bottle clogging and trying to squeeze with my sore hands. It was expensive but worth it for me. I live in Australia and the exchange rate and postage was prohibitive but still happy I purchased it.
Thank you so much for doing reviews like this. There are WAY TOO MANY unreliable product reviews on pretty much every site.

I always learn something when I get your honest opinions. $45 is a LOT of money for that. I saved some money because of you. Thank you for your review!
Thanks for the honest review. It's very helpful.
The same thing happened to me with the tips. BOTH of them just disappeared very soon after I starting using it! I thought perhaps they fell down inside the bottle. I used a bamboo skewer and fishes around and couldn’t find it. I ended up actually emptying the glue out hoping to find it. No luck.

This makes me angry, but doesn't surprise me. Their response goes along with the overall company reputation. I really didn't want to give this company any of my money and your comment sealed the deal for me. Thank you.
I had heard this with someone else's review as well.
If I needed to have it due to dexterity issues, I'd do it. However, her CS issues & my figuring that research & devevelopment plus manufacturing costs = huge profits per item. I will pass.
Thanks also Sherry!
Check the lids as they stick to the pins after you use them it happened to mine. Get some pointy pliers and pull it out then push them back in the bottle. Hope that helps, hopefully you haven't thrown them away
Tonic Studios sells precision glue tips for the bottles.
I’ve been on the fence about this product but after this poor customer service, I’ll pass!!!
You are great! I love the fact that you gave all of the facts! Thank you.
Thank you very much for the demo on this!!
I stand with you on the cost of the glue press. I could use that money for more crafting supplies and my Reptile Glue. Love that glue. Thanks for recommending the Reptile Glue Sherry. Been using it about 2 1/2 years now.

Thank you for sharing this with us!
Thanks for your honest review!
This was informative, thank you.
I'm so thankful that you gave your honest opinion. Very refreshing 😀
It would be helpful to do a follow-up video on customer service when you ask for help to replace a defective bottle.
Sherry, thanks for the demonstration, nicely done. The glue press is too expensive for me, I'm thinking it shouldn't be no more than $25.00 taxes included. I'm sticking with the glue bottles.

Thank you so much for the honest review!!

It's very helpful; thank you.

I brought this product too. My 2nd bottle tip came off as well. I thought it was something I did. Thanks for showing this defect.
Thank you, Sherry for this information. I do have hand problems. So much that I have almost stopped crafting. I find so much inspiration from you. I LOVE your boxes crafting. I love Making things that help me organize my stuff.

❤ it.
I love Nuvo glue. It is thicker than some but it holds better than other glues I've used. The weather did not affect it.
I got one of these for Christmas from one of my crafting friends. I personally don’t know how I ever lived without it! No glue problems and no tip problems falling out. It works perfectly!

Thanks Sherry you are so honest I trust your judgement in things you review and its refreshing to find someone who doesn't rip us off!
Hi. This was my first experience with your channel. This clear, well explained review with both pros and CONS made me a subscriber! Thanks 😊
Thanks for your review. I didn’t think this would be worth it for me since I don’t have dexterity issues. Your review confirmed that.
Thanks for the detailed information! ❤

I have had mine for about 6 months and have not had any problems. I love it

New subscriber. Thanks for your review, I might have been tempted to try.
I just got mine today. I have had surgery on my hands numerous times. I hope it helps me
Sheila, once you had a chance to use it, please come back and leave another comment. Since you have actually had hand surgery, your experience will be so helpful😀
I love my Glue Press and have had no issues with it. I would suggest you contact the company and see if they’ll replace the defective bottle of glue.
Thank you for your review. It is unfortunate that you paid $10.00 more than it costs on the Sweet Petunia website and other sellers' websites
I do like it, and I did not mind paying $34.99.
Thanks for the review, appreciate your opinion.
I absolutely love this glue press. It has saved me so much time. I have refilled my bottles over and over. You should ask for a replacement. I also did not pay $45. Sorry you didn’t like it. I hope crafters are not turned off by the review.
Thank you! I am an Aleene's Tacky Glue user from way back and my hands aren't always up to the challenge. And of course my stash far exceeds my usage. Something like this would be appealing to use but I totally agree that it's overpriced for a piece of plastic. I'll wait to find an off-brand to pop-up eventually. ❤
Thank you for the review. I used a friend's and thought just like you it was over priced for what it does.
Thank you for the tutorial. I totally agree with you. Can u send it back to the company?
Thank You Sherry for doing this Review!!
I've seen people advertising this on their channels, like Simon Hurley, but they make $ off of people buying thus from their Links.
I've been on the Fence about the Glue Press the other week I was gonna buy it, but it was sold out again. Turns out Good thing it was.
After Watching ur Review here .. I Don't need it. I use needle tip bottles kinda like urs & I don't have any trouble squeezing them. Like u said, maybe down the road if that becomes a problem, I'll consider the Glue Press.
Also I Agree w/ You .. I think the Price is too High. Cuz were Paying for their Company Name. I definitely think it needs to be Cheaper!!
Again, TY Sherry for doing this Review!! I Love that You do Videos like this. Especially Love ur Honesty in them!!😉☺️
Take Care & Have a Great Day!! ☺️ TFS!!🥰🥰
^This!
Thanks Sherry for your honest opinion. So far, my hands are working to just use a regular bottle. If things change, then I’ll look into getting this.
Watched replay. Thank you for doing the demo. I had thought about buying it but now will wait and keep using my little bottles. Thanks again.
Sherry, I bought a Glue Press last year. I have BURSITIS in both thumbs and this has been a game changer for me. I also use a different glue in it. I also bought 2 replacement bottles for other things ( aka Crystal Glaze, etc) ❤❤❤ I LOVE mine. But I did buy it back before it got cold. ❤❤❤ Thank you for your honesty. It was VERY handy for Christmas cards and projects for Christmas.
I love the Precision Glue Press (Press from now on) which was given to me as a gift. I was always adhesive-challenged getting glue everywhere. Since using the Press my papers are not covered with glue. The Press really does help with precision and if you keep the tip on the pad, the glue doesn't clog.
I was going to buy a second Press for my Acorn fabric glue,I use when sewing, since Acorn constantly clogs. My cousin reminded me that two bottles came with the Press. The second bottle is clear, so I can tell the different glues apart. It is wonderful and made using the Acorn fabric glue much easier.
Thank you for the honest review. I was thinking about purchasing this but I'm so glad I didn't and I'm not going to. It's way overpriced!
Hi, I am enjoying your critique. I, too, had an issue with the tip of one of my bottles. The metal tip stuck to the pin in the cap, and I had to do glue bottle surgery. I got it separated by soaking cap in hot water to melt the glue and used jewelry pliers to get the pin back into the bottle. I was like you, not tempted to buy until I talked to friends who bought. I've come to reach for it every time i need liquid glue. So far, my bottle that I did surgery on is working fine now. Can't wait to see more of your videos!
Thank you for this demo! I have such a hard time squishing glue bottles.
I did ask for extra bottles in case they were needed!
I have a precision glue press and I absolutely love it. I have not had any problems with the bottles or the tips. And you can purchase separately additional glue bottles.
Thank you for this review. I have hand and finger arthritis problems and some problems with glue bottles. I also find that when i put my glue in metal tip bottles, they always clog. I have looked at this and have not purchased due to the cost. If the price comes down, i may purchase.
Thank you for your opinion on this. I have no desire to get it and now I know I won’t. I’ve seen other reviews on it and it shows me nothing.
Hi, my glue press was delivered on a very cold day too and sat on my front porch for a few hours. But I let the glue sit for a couple weeks in my craft room while I used my own glue in the other bottle and now the cold one works fine. I really like the press. I also watched Simon Hurley and he gave a few important tips about using it. Oh, one of the tips of his bottles got stuck and unable to be used too. Mine has never clogged either. Agree though that it is priced high for what it is.
Thank you! I have wondered about this product and now I know I won’t waste my money. $50 buys a lot of glue.
Sometimes your the windshield .... sometimes your the bug !!! You are right. It is very expensive. I just put my glue in a jar upside down when I am using it .... and when I am done I clean off the tip and reseal it. Where do you get the glue you are referring to. I looked an Amazon and it is not available there.
I am so sorry you had problems with your press and glue. If you contact the company,they should. Send you a new bottle of glue. I took awhile to purchase as well. I payed less than you, but I am glad I purchased it. I have problems with my hand . The first couple of presses were a little hard for me. Now the glue flows with ease. I never loose my cap and don't have to be concerned with glue clogging on my bottles. I will be purchasing the new bottles you use with the blue cap for my granddaughters. I really like the glue press. It's a winner for me.
I love mine. Always using it
Hey, I bought this little Sweet Petunia several weeks ago and put my reptile glue in it and I am loving it. Was a good buy for me. Don't care for their glue--I love my Reptile Glue. Thanks, Pat
I have arthritis in my hands and love this tool. I was so tired of always having my glue bottle clogging and trying to squeeze with my sore hands. It was expensive but worth it for me. I live in Australia and the exchange rate and postage was prohibitive but still happy I purchased it.
Thank you for the honest review…I was kind thinking the same thing, but so glad you reviewed it!! 🙂
