**INFO - I forgot to add this: It wasn't addressed when the Precision Press was first released, and I didn't think to mention it because I don't use those types of adhesives - but DO NOT put NON-water-based glues in these bottles. Glues that aren't water based have a totally different chemical formula and need certain types of plastics to contain them and the soft plastic of the Nuvo bottles isn't compatible with non-water-based glues. Those types of glues can eat away at the plastic and/or cause the bottle to burst. Just FYI!! And if you're reading this - thanks for watching and thanks to all of you that left positive comments regardless of whether you want this tool, have this tool, or are uninterested etc. I said in the video that there was drama around this and I've been dealing with it since posting and some of it has been ridiculous. If this tool doesn't interest you or you see no need for it for yourself that's totally ok. But that doesn't mean you need to vomit a bunch of negativity on my socials and come after me, post complaints, call me names etc (yeah - that's been happening). It's crafting my friends. CRAFTING. A TOOL FOR GLUE. That's it. Love all my peeps OK bye! See y'all in the next video 🩷

Hello. I hope to see you using this product in your upcoming videos for real world use and examples. One of my biggest pet peeves with craft influencers on YT is that they will give a glowing review of a product and then we never see them use the product in videos anymore. I like that you frequently reuse products like stamps and dies rather than just new products. Thanks for taking the time to share your review.

When you are done using the glue, tap the bottle down to get the glue out of the tip. Also dip your pin in a stamp cleaner before putting it in or do it before capping the glue and it will help stop clogging.

I really wish supplies like this were more affordable. Thanks for your honest review!

I appreciate your honesty on reviews, every tool has positives and negatives

Excellent very well explained review. I was so excited to see this new item as someone who suffers with arthritis in my hands. I thought, ahh an answer to my prayers. 🥰😁😁😁

When I’m transferring the craft tacky glue, I cut the tip off a LOT and then squeeze it into the nuvo bottle. After most of it is squeezed out, I left it sit with the Simon bottle on top of the nuvo bottle and drip. Then i wash out the tip and save it for another Simon little so I don’t have to cut all of them.

Great review! I appreciate the honesty, and I hate it that you’ve received negativity from folks for a straightforward, non gushing review. Hang in there!

Thanks Amy. You are straight up and that is appreciated. I love your philosophy about not reviewing something you really don't care for or use with the idea that another crafter may really like it and use it often. I also like that you approach this from YOUR point of view and how YOU use it and that you took the time to list your pros and cons. Take good care! PS: We may be getting another big dump of winter here in Nova Scotia! Yikes! LOL

Thank you Amy for you honest opinions. I tried a friend's this weekend. I decided I wanted one of these glue presses. I got my boyfriend to order it for me today as my Valentine's gift. Keep on making your KZfaqs. They are most enjoyable.

Do not let this ship to you if the temperature is cold, below zero. I had to throw away my nuovo glue bottle. I could not get the glue going anymore. Thanks for this review!

I really like the Misti Precision Glue Press. Especially that it doesn’t need a lot of pressure to make the glue come out.

I make a “funnel” with parchment paper to fill my bottles. Or a ziplock bag with a tip from the cake decorator stuff

Thanks for a very thorough review! I find that a little inexpensive stand I bought quite a while back ( looks like a 3D printer product) that stores my glue bottles upside down really cut down on the clogging, and effort to squeeze them. Using a needleless syringe to refill bottles works like a charm… just don’t get tiny ones!! 🧑🏼‍🎨

Great review! Thank you!❤

Thank you AmyR for this review I was skeptical about buying the product but the price has changed my mind but I’m so glad the bottles are available to purchase separately, they are so cute and much more comfortable in my hands. I already have Nuvo glue and love it. Those tiny bottles hurts and stiffen my hands. You rock

Great tips. Thank you.

Thank you for the thorough review. You including tips I haven’t heard in other reviews. After watching several, I decided that this isn’t something I need at this point. I don’t have issues with my hands and I find the small squeeze bottles work fine with my thinner glue. Besides, my desk is loaded with enough items as it is. Glad it works for you, though.

O and I love your reviews miss them!!

Thank you for your review very much appreciated xx

Oh, my gosh, Amy, THANK YOU for posting this video! I've been trying to buy one of these glue presses for months and it's been constantly sold out. Your video reminded me to check to see if it was back in stock, so I followed your affiliate link and IT WAS! I finally got mine ordered from SSS and I can't wait to use it. At 57 years of age, my wrists and hands are starting to give me a little hell and this glue press looked like it would really take some of the pressure off of my joints. I was so dang excited to get this thing that I wept tears of disbelief, astonishment, and joy when I saw it in stock. Not really, but I was pretty damn happy. I think it's going to make a big difference in my comfort level when I'm crafting. Thanks much for the honest product review. I'm glad that you can finally bring your own glue press(es) out of the shadows and start using them in your videos. I love your honesty, your attitude, and your amazing cards. Take care, my dear. See you on the next video! ☺

Thank you for this review!

Thanks for the review, Amy. It was helpful.

Thanks for your honest and thorough review. I’ve been eyeing this for awhile so this video helped.

Thanks Amy this was really helpful. 😊

I like the glue press, it has never clogged in the months that I’ve had it . I do place it in the holder when I’m not using it and replace the top when I’m done crafting. I have left it in the holder overnight and it still didn’t clog.

Love my glue gun. The built in "home" for the cap is great. Otherwise I am forever losing it on my worktable.

I literally just had mine delivered yesterday. Cant wait to use it. Thanks for these tips

Wow what a great review Amy, the best I have seen so honest about lol the little peevey things which are all good to know. I’m still on the French with this one and this really helped!

Thank you for the review, I received mine and I'm very satisfied, my hand, wrist does feel better.

I really like this tool. It’s more than just for wrists. The consistency of flow and ease of start is great!

Great review Amy..thanks for sharing..

Hi Amy...I'm not sure if you mentioned this or not...I'm pretty sure that the recommendation is to 'burp' the bottle and get the glue down to the tip of the bottle before capping it. I'm almost certain that I saw this in a review directly from the company. I could be totally wrong but it certainly has helped in my case as I was having the same problem with clogging. It's not a perfect solution but has cut down on the clogging significantly. Thanks for your review..I like this product too.

Great informative review Amy 🥰 I love your honest review ❤️ thanks for sharing and happy crafting Hugs xx

Thank you for this review! It was extremely helpful and answered the questions i had. I feel this would be a great tool for me!

I was wondering about this product. Thanks for doing this product review.

I love mine! Best $$$ I’ve spent on a craft tool. It’s well worth the money.

Clever squeezing the bottle to suck the thick glue in the smaller bottle. My problem with Sweet Petunia Misti is they are so expensive on everything and I also think the stamp tool should have an open side to fit larger cards. I really enjoyed your honest critique of the glue dispenses. First time I have come across you, you are good!

Great review. I love my glue press as well. It really helps my arthritic hands. Much less pain after a day of card making.

Hi Amy! Thank you so much for this review ! I’ve been looking into this glue press because of my carpal tunnel !

I still haven’t decided if I want one but I appreciate all this info.

Thanks for the tips. I bought one but haven't used it yet. I'm glad I know it can clog so I won't be upset when it happens. Thanks again.

Thank you Amy. I purchase the gluepress yesterday after many month waiting being back in stock .

I got this for a requested birthday gift, yes, I ask for it, and an extra pack of tips. I'm like you, I love and hate it. I've already lost one tip? I have no idea why? I wanted this for the reasons you did, but, I've already had too many surgeries on my hands, over the years. This really does help me with gluing. I don't like to glue because my hands do hurt so bad, but this press makes it bearable for me.

It too me awhile to purchase this because of the price but I do love it. I find with regular bottles I was forever waiting for the glue to get down to the tip and then filling the little bottles was a pain. I think this is a great invention. Thanks for your review.

Thank you for doing this review, Amy. I have the same problem with mine if I don’t dock it right, it will clog too. Amazing tips with it too

I missed getting one the first time it came out. My local craft store refused to carry anything from Misti but finally relented and I missed it again. Just got an email from Simon and I ordered one as soon as I got it! I get so frustrated with glue clogging and my arthritic hands can't squeeze them hard enough when the glue isn't stuck. This will be a game changer for me!

Ordered mine last week - can't wait for it to be delivered so I can use it. I also use Craft Tacky Glue - I think it will be easier on my hand. Thanks for the review.

This was perfectly timed because my glue press arrived on Friday last week. I've had a quick play and I'm liking it so far. I had been using the fine tip but I think I might switch to the other one to get more glue out at one time for backgrounds. Thanks for sharing your honest thoughts. We appreciate you!

Thanks for the honest review. I am contemplating whether to buy or not and this has helped!

I also bought mine awhile ago and I order nuvo glue for a long time its great! great review thanks! I love it but sometime forget to grab it! LOL

Thank you for this, Amy. I have carpal tunnel in both wrists that flairs up and down. This squeeze press looks like it could help!

Thank you for doing this review! I’ve been on the fence about adding this to my list of tools to get. I have a pinched nerve in my neck that affects my hands and my hands tend to shake when I have to squeeze the little needle nose tip bottles. After I get a glimmer hot foil and better press I will be ordering one.

Thanks for the honest review, Amy. I have been considering buying one, but I 've been putting it off until the excitement dies down a little bit.

Thank you for this timely review! (my order from Simon is due to arrive today). Like so many others, I have arthritis in my hands, and squeezing glue bottles is painful. I'm looking forward to getting some relief by using this tool. Now I need to get on the wait list for the extra bottles!! Love your videos.❤❤❤

They are currently in stock at SSS. I just placed my order via your link! 😊

I appreciate your honest review and showing that the tips do clog no matter what. They do sell out fast. I haven't purchased yet, but your opinion helps. Thanks

Thanks for the review. I got mine last week. I also have arthritis in my hands. i hope i can control it ok. We'll see! TFS!

I agree on the colors! I'd much prefer it in white with aqua accents. Thank you for this review, Amy, enjoyed watching it.

I also am enjoying using the glue press. I’ve only used the fine tip and it’s working well. I’ve filled the extra bottle with bearly art glue but haven’t tried it yet.

I love mine but I found that I needed to keep it filled for it to work the best. I refill with the Bearly Arts glue and it works just fine with that.

Thanks for your honest and informative review. I bought one and love it too. Sure, (as you stated), glue clogs but it is what it is, lol.

Glad I am not the only one that has to have extras on hand

I'm so glad you did this review. I have been looking at this since it came out and wondering whether or not to get it. I have arthritis in my hands which causes some problems. It sounds like my current system works just as well as this does since it still clogs. Thanks for helping me make up mind.

Thanks for the info/input Amy! I'm still on the fence... I would "need" 2 as well because I work on 2 different desks & moving the glue from one to the other...oh the bother!!😂😂 I do appreciate your review!❤

Thank you Amy for the review , I heard it was a game changer. But I'm thinking its just another item sitting on my table taking space. I'm considering just buying the glue for the bottle.I like the idea of another tube sealing the spout if that makes any sense.

Loved your video! When I fill a smaller bottle with a little tip with a larger bottle with a regular tip, I just leave the nozzle on the larger bottle and squeeze it into the smaller bottle and I don’t have any problems filling little bottles. Now that the precision glue press is in stock again I think I will be getting it. Thank you for your review of this product 🙂

Thank you Amy! I’ve been trying to decide on whether to buy this. My glues always get clogged and it’s very frustrating. I’m glad it’s not just me. Good to know this will clog too. Still seems like a nifty system.

I ❤ this glue gun. I use fine point and very seldom gets clogged.

Thank you for your personal review based on your experiences! You said you didn't like the color & I thought maybe you could spray-paint it a color you like. 😊

Thank you for doing this review. I have seen others review this product and never use it again. Makes me wonder why. I’m glad this is working for you. Not sure this would be worth the investment for me, but was interested in seeing what you had to say about it. I hope you do more reviews in the future.

Thank you for your honest review! I appreciate it. Also, when I think about price, I consider how often I would use it. If I but a stamp & die set I may use it a few times, put it away, use it again, etc.. this would be used everyday!

I'm not crazy about this tool, I've been holding off on getting it though. I'm ok squeezing my glue bottle for now. Thanks for your honest review at least coming from you it gives me something to think in the future if I want to get it.

Thank you for that review. I've been wondering how well it works. I think it's a little expensive for me , though.

I have psoriatic arthritis in my hands which causes my skin to become very raw . The glue press really helps me a lot because they way the palms of my hands get it hurts very badly

I have been thinking about this and am hesitating as it's $75 New Zealand dollars. I have arthritis in my hands and thought it might help but always procrastinate esp with cost . You have made me think even harder about it - I do want to try the Nuvo glue too - been trying different ones.

Yours is probably the most thorough review I’ve seen. I have used mine since they were made available, and it clogs all the time. Sometimes, it’s just not worth the effort, but I keep trying to use it and do what I can to avoid clogging. Thank you for showing all aspects of this product.

I resisted this as it is pricey but I’m so glad I got it as MS is making squeezing glue from those precision tip bottles difficult and painful . Do appreciate your honest , unbiased opinion . Will be decanting rangers mat medium into the spare bottle as Nuevo glue leaves a grey mess when you try to rub it off card if it spurges and the ranger glue doesn’t .

I just got mine yesterday but haven't started working with it yet. I wonder how good it is at getting the last bits of glue out of the bottle. Or maybe nobody needs to do that since the bottles are refillable.

If you use a large syringe to fill it’s a lot less messy .

Fab review ❤ I put bearly arts glue in the extra bottle with the wider tip. It leaked out everywhere and made a huge mess! Haven't had any issues with the tonic glue that came with it, so I might just switch glues. I do really like the press, my hands shake and it helps massively when glueing fiddly things lol

Thank you for your honest review …you are one of the crafters I most trust. I’ve been crafting awhile and I think I’ve been pretty good about resisting the latest trends. I had no interest in foiling …tried the kind without the fancy machine and didn’t really like that either . I gave in on the better press machine and am so disappointed.im so mad at myself for going against my better judgement. I’ve also resisted this but was tempted by all the KZfaqrs glowing reviews. It was nice to have what feels like an unbiased opinion on this tool. Wish there had been more like this with the better press

I love my glue press, so much easier on my hand!

I’m of mixed opinion. When I first got the glue press I loved it. I ordered it about the first day it was out. It was easier on my hands, especially my thumb. I capped it at the end of each session because the tip slid off the top of the red rubber dome but that was no big deal. Unfortunately, there were no warnings about using non-water based glues on the original box or original videos so I lost my spare bottle to a 3in1 glue bottle explosion🤪. C’est la vie. I personally like thinner glues and am looking forward to getting the original glue bottle empty so I can refill it. The second half of the bottle doesn’t work very well in the glue press. I find it hard on my thumb to squeeze by hand. In the meantime the stand is great for holding my other fine tip glue bottles so I don’t need to recap them while crafting. 😊. Someday I will get the original Nuvo bottle empty so I can put in new glue and get back to using the glue press.

I really like my misti precision glue press, I have arthritis in my hands. It did take a bit of getting used to, but I do really like it. I've never had it clog on me, but I agree, I think it has a lot to do with the climate you live in. Like everything, it's not for everyone. X

I tried Craft Tacky Glue once and it was so thick I could not get it out of the bottle! Ended up throwing the full bottle away. You always amaze me with how easy you seem to get the glue to flow. Thanks for your thoughts on the glue press, I have not purchased one yet, still thinking about it - do I really need it? Of course not. Thanks for all your videos, you have a very distinctive style!

Thanks so much for the review of this glue press. I so enjoy all your videos. I have such an issue with squeezing the bottles of glossy accents and diamond glaze. Do you feel that this system would work with those mediums?

I love mine. I fill the fine tip bottle with Glitter glue and have no issues with clogging. Those who have issues with the price, the tip, filling the bottle, clogging etc… are simply looking for ways to justify their money guilt/fear issues.

Thank you for the review...I have been considering purchasing one but it seems a bit to finicky for me. BTW, I took your encouragement and made the Tim Holtz Valentine candies and box. It was not as bad as I thought it was going to be. I made 5 cards and them promptly gave away the die.. At least I used it once which more than I can say for a lot of the craft things I buy.

I really like my glue press and several friends have purchased after playing with mine. That being said I am a messy crafter and if I use my glue as I should the gun is easy to find. I still have lost it and grab one of my little ones. I also have some clogging issues but that is the nature of glue. I will tell you I tried putting Beacon Fabritac in the large nozzle one. It clogged and I busted the bottle. That glue is hard to clean up and I found out that acetone is not the black part of the gun's friend. I didn't destroy it and still use it but I bought me another so I wouldn't be embarrassed if I took it to a crop. Nuff said!

I got one for Christmas. I love mine. I have arthritis in my thumbs so having the trigger makes glueing easier for me.

I have a love hate with glue containers... when I fill the glue bottle the glue leeks out of the bottle , when l open a glue bottle to start to use the glue most of the glue leaks... do you think that thing would help me and l might not waste glue

Thx for your honest review Amy. Very helpful. I too have arthritis in my right hand, which is aggravated by prolonged and sustained squeezing. Does the tool require your hand to exert a lot of pressure to squeeze out the glue? Or is a lighter squeeze just as effective? Thanks again.

Any idea where to get the replacement glue bottle? I finally made the decision to empty out the rest of the Nuvo Glue so I could put in my glue of choice. But my daughter got to the cleaned and empty bottle first and helped me out, not, by filling the bottle with her dollar store glue! Getting items across the border into Canada is pricey but I decided I have no choice. I've tried several places and they are all out!

This product is a hard pass for me! I have a small work space one would take up too much space in my area. Everyone is jumping on board because influenceers are pushing this product with glowing reviews - maybe someday but not anytime in the future. Thank you for your honest review - Two glue presses would be over $70.00 that I could use on stamps or dies for my collection. Thanks but, No Thanks

I have seen several reviews of this products. People seem to really like it. I don’t have difficulty using a glue bottle and I think the glue press would take up too much room on my craft table.

It's very expensive, is there an alternative ?

I don't think that matters, I have carpal tunnel and if I don't keep it full it just clogs & takes to long to come out, of course that's probably my wrists....

🩵🩶🤍

I am not interested in getting this tool at all. I don’t have any wrist or finger issues and my Bearly Art glue serves me very well.
