John Boos Oil & Cream Round Applicator for Wood Cutting Boards, Butcher Blocks & Utensils, Beechwood - Solid Hardwood Handle, Silver Ion-Treated Sponge, Storage Cap, Easy and Even Application

Finally, a mess free way to apply oil to cutting boards, utensils, and more. I’ve tried so many ways and while they worked, I wound up messy every time. This little item solves the problem and is a pleasure to use. Plus, it’s cute and fits in my hand nicely. Highly recommend.

This product is a great value for the money. The quality of the product is amazing. They make my cutting boards and wooden kitchen tools look amazing. The size of the containers ensures you are getting a great value. I have had these on my shelf in the pantry for over a year and the smell of the product is still fresh. I have used this product on my cutting boards several times since the purchase and the accuracy of the refurbishing the boards is amazing! Thank you for such a good product to keep all my wooden kitchen items in very good condition!

This thing makes oiling all our cutting boards super easy! Much cleaner than sponges or rags.

Makes the board look like new. Love this !

I bought this as a special treat, it’s a little spendy, and why not just use a cloth? BUT, I love this! It is easy to use, and spreads the oil evenly and completely over my cutting boards and butcher block counter tops. Absolutely love it, it’s beautiful.

I used to apply my Boos Block Mystery Oil by pouring a bit on the surface then using my fingers to apply since most sponge applicators ended up absorbing the oil vs distributing it. This applicator’s sponge is made for oil distribution.The PadThis applicator’s pad is stiffer than regular sponges and has larger pores which helps distribute material evenly. It feels rough when first applying but avoid putting pressure and follow the grain to help it glide. I do wish the pad was removable/replaceable, it doesn’t look like it’s removable. It also comes with a pad plastic cover which most other alternatives do not have. This helps keep the pad clean.CleaningI don’t wash this pad since I’m always using this after washing our Boos block. I simply put it back in the plastic cover after each use without washing. I’m not sure if the adhesive between the pad and wood puck would deteriorate over washes so I just avoid it all together.The WoodThe applicator’s wood is high quality and has some heft to it, let the weight of the wood do the work, try not to add additional pressure as it’s not needed and may cause the applicator to wear out prematurely.The SpreadA little oil goes a long way with this pad. I swirl the oil on the block first then run this applicator over it to spread. Works great.It’s a bit pricey but is a quality product.

Love this item!

This is the second Boos applicator I have purchased. The first one I left behind for the new owners when we sold our home that had a Boos island top. I missed it so much that I purchased a new one for my cutting boards. A must have!
