2 in 1 Prep Funnel

I bought this funnel to use the 2 combined parts simply to pour liquids into bottles. Once I started using it, I realized it's amazingly versatile, both with the 2 parts combined and also separately. The small, narrow-ended, bottom part is ideal for narrow necked bottles such as for my handsoap. The top part I use alone for powders (like coffee). For the coffee it's the only thing I have which enables me to get the powder into my wide-topped jars without spilling any. I also use the wide, top, section with a strainer lodged inside; it really does stop any splashing.

I love the look of this funnel, the material, the design all looks great. Sadly, its let down by functionality. With its dual usage on liquids or solids (my reason for purchase). The real limiting factor is that it moves fluids through its narrow tube at a very slow rate - this is due to it creating a seal around the openings and stopping air from escaping. In the end I used a cheap funnel, which cleverly had long grooves on the exterior for easy displacement of air as you fill your liquids. This 2in1 Top Heavy funnel with its slow draining caused it to tilt and spill its oily contents!
