Great product with BETTER customer service!
Injectors, even cheap ones, are pretty easy to get right. Cheap ones have idiosyncrasies,stuff you put up with because they're cheap. This one isn't cheap, comparatively, but it isn't expensive either, by any means. It seemed to be of high quality in the description, the reviews were good and it had three needles of varying lengths and hole layouts to be capable of approaching about any injection job I'd find myself using it for. I bought it.When it arrived, I was very happy with the quality of the entire package: the injector (most importantly) was made of solid materials, with a good feel, tight fit on the plunger (not sloppy, either at the o-ring on the piston OR where the stem protrudes through the screw-on cap for the barrel), so the unit felt solid in your hand. The plunger and the needles all have high-end o-rings, PLUS an extra set for each piece that uses them! A very nice touch that I've not seen before! The packaging also impressed me with it's form-cut slots for all the pieces so they rest nicely inside a snug fitting foam piece inside a thick box that completes a package you feel reflects an overall wish to provide a good product in every way.I do a LOT of BBQ and smoking of meats, I research my products well before buying and, as a result, have been able to get very high quality products for affordable prices because I shop around and try to shop smart. I want my products to be as good as my food.When I injected my first piece of meat (two BIG tri tips), I used both the big liquids needle (with side holes) and the solids needle (with a thicker shaft and bigger end opening for things like finely ground garlic, herbs and spices) and was pleased with ease of use and the lack of leaks from the top of the barrel, denoting no leaking past the plunger seal. (Injecting a nice hunk of meat in front of your friends, readying for a great evening of company and food, and having liquid shooting from your injector is disheartening, to say the least.) No leaks, no mess, no problem...Well, one little problem; both needles were a bit askew in their threads in the barrel. I noticed a bit of looseness as I'd threaded them in, like the machining wasn't quite the best, but then I remembered that stainless steel, if tightly fitted on threaded components, can be a bit of a struggle to thread due to the friction created by the temperamental metal, so I figured that perhaps they intentionally cut the threads a bit loose because they knew they could count on their high quality o-rings to keep things as they should be. Which IS what ended up happening: though the needles were a bit off-angled when seated, and the threads weren't of the closest tolerances when threading to seat them, there was NO leakage and the unit worked fine. My only real issue was that the needles weren't quite parallel with the barrel when injecting, so I had to pay closer attention to the angle of the needle than the usual. The barrel and the needle were at slightly different angles...I was OK with this because of the price of this unit compared to others in its category. Especially since many in its category seemed to have less features (fewer needles, didn't seem to claim the quality this one did, poor reviews, higher price, et al...) than this did. I was willing to live with the small inconvenience of the needle and the barrel being a tad different because, otherwise, it was a solid unit.Then I started getting emails from the seller asking about my experience. "How's our product working for you?"... "Did you find our 'little extra' useful?"... (they sent a nice little e-book and a follow-up tips email) and, frankly, I found it annoying. I thought it was just another vendor trying to get a good Amazon review by doing legwork on the ass-end of a deal by sending me emails until I get tired of seeing them and do a review.It happens...So, after getting the third email asking about my experience, I decided to mention my slight issue with the unit. I responded as I readied for work one morning (at 3:30 or so PST, USA) and spoke of the alignment situation. I said it's not a deal-breaker with me, but I did find it somewhat conspicuous since the unit seemed of such high quality. Then I finished readying for work and took off. BEFORE I got to work, I received a reply from Greg, at the company, who said he was "sorry to hear about the issue, bla-bla-bla..." Then he did something the usual suspects in the "we're sending you this annoying email to bait a nice review from you on our product" crowd doesn't usually do: he sent input on how to see if it was the same issue they'd dealt with on a few other units. Very simple stuff I should have checked in the first place... 'roll the needles on the edge of a table to see if the threads were straight on the needle' (because I'd mentioned I thought the barrel machining was bad as well, so those threads weren't straight either, creating a bigger problem). Being the cynic I am, I thought it was nice to admit to previous problems of a lesser nature, but I was pretty sure my unit had bigger issues (which, again, I was okay with accepting... but they asked.) I rolled the needles and found that they were all a bit off. Then I rolled the barrel and found it, too, was off. Then I screwed in my needles, one at a time, into the barrel and took photos of the fairly significant difference in angles between the needles and the barrel of the injector. I sent them off.I got an email back post haste that said, basically, "Wow! I've never seen that before. That's not good." I responded that, 'yeah, it could be better, etc., and I like this type of thing to be right. How do we deal with this at this point?'He emailed back that my new unit was in the mail and would be delivered on Monday! (This all happened on Saturday, as I said, in the wee hours of the morning!)I go into such detail here because I have learned a few things buying online over the years I have been doing so (I am fond of sharing that I've been online longer than Yahoo! It's true...). Not all companies you deal with online are legit. We know that. Even the better companies have issues when it comes to customer service. In all the time I've purchased products online I've never had such a response from a company that was obviously not an Amazon, Shutterfly, Zazzle, etc. Big companies KNOW they have to make you happy or they'll suffer. Big companies send you CustServ emails that, when you reply, the name says it's the same person, but you're pretty sure it's a form letter. Even when they solve your issue, you feel they were just making sure they won't get a bad review. In this exchange, I dealt with Greg, every time, and Greg spoke to me of my personal problem with his product, in DETAIL, and went to the next step until he knew I was satisfied! That level of service most likely denuded every cent of profit my sale had afforded him, but he didn't care about that: he cared that I deserved the product they'd promised, and he made it happen.The replacement is perfect. Through it all I was treated as a valued customer. Any time I see this company is selling something I want, I will know that:1) They are selling it at a fair price, and...2) If I have an issue with it, they will make it good.You can't ask for more than that!In the future, I will look at those 'annoying' solicitous emails a bit more carefully and consider whether, possibly, the vendor is being proactive and sincere. I will consider the possibility that they are looking to make sure I am happy with my purchase, as it should be. I OWE Greg and this company this review, because they did all they could to make my buying experience positive.And, again, you can't ask for more than that!

Great Injector
This is my second one! I got eight years out of the first one so no complaints about the durability. I have owned no less than a dozen of these and this is the only one that held up. I cook a lot of BBQ and inject turkey, chicken, pork shoulders and brisket. It is more expensive than some of the others but it will hold up to constant use. The needles don’t plug when you are injecting liquid with seasoning in it, it is easy to clean and it has never leaked like some. Keep it clean and oil the o-ring with olive oil before storing it and it will last for years.

Best Meat Injector I’ve Used So Far!
This is the best meat injector I’ve used so far. It’s made of stainless steel and the quality is outstanding. You get 3 different high quality needles and brushes to easily clean the inside of the needles after each use. There’s 3 rings at the end to comfortably fit you fingers into which makes it easy to gather the basting solution and inject into whichever part of the meat you want to baste. This product definitely blows away all those plastic meat injectors I’ve used in the past. I’m guessing this must be the type of meat injector a master chef would use. Definitely an outstanding meat injector!

Works great and durable
If you BBQ or use a smoker you need one of these! For years I used a cheap plastic one and figured how much better could one of these be. I mean it either injects or not, not much else to it. And that is true but this one makes the job way easier and faster. Also much easier to clean up afterwards with the included brushes. Best feature is the large chamber which holds a whole lot of juice. I injected a 25lb pork shoulder and only had to fill this 4 times, would have probably taken 10 with my old one. Also the largest needle makes it possible to injects herbs or minced garlic along with the liquid without clogging up. And of course since its all stainless it is tough. It fell into our garbage disposal while it was running ( just the main body without the needle ) and survived. I was sure that at least the threads where the plunger screws on would be messed up but even they held up.. Did end up scratching it but still perfectly functional. Needless to say a plastic one would have been destroyed.

All in all great, a few drawbacks for me.
Firstly, I want to say this is an excellent kitchen utensil/gadget. Used it and it worked great for injecting brine into a 10lb pork butt before smoking, made a big difference in keeping the meat moist.I also am very pleased that this comes with spare o-rings. It appears to be a great design and looks to last a lifetime.The only 2 things that made the product not 5-stars worthy for me are as follows:- Packaging sucks, it is the brittle, sharp plastic. With the spare o-rings and multiple needles, it really should be a reusable case (maybe with the plastic snaps instead of plastic welded together. Mine shredded and I had to tape it back together, or come with a little pouch to keep it all together. I'll find something to put it in.- Mine had some leftover metal millings in the chamber, lots of tiny metal fragments. I also noticed that the threads where the cap screws on were not finished very well, and the threads are quite sharp. A thorough scrubbing and I believe all the bits have come free, but room for manufacturing improvements in that spot. Some screwing on/off of the cap and some of the sharpness has gone away, but disconcerting up front, and glad I checked before using it!

Good Quality and easy to use
I purchased this one (paying a higher price) hoping to get a better quality than some of the others. I was not disappointed. It is very nice quality, easy to use, fits together and holds fluid well. No issues. I also purchased the storage case, but it is really not needed as the box and packing you get with the product is good enough. In fact, the foam padding that comes in the box is exactly the same as what comes in the storage case. So, if I had it to do again, I would not purchase the storage case and just keep if in the original box.

Fantastic quality
I’ve had cheap injectors before. This one is awesome. They say it’s built to last a lifetime and I absolutely agree. Great quality, spare parts included and also available to purchase, and a great box to keep it all together.

Una inversión muy recomendable.
Mu buen producto, de buena calidad y funcional.Yo lo empleo para inyectar salsa en los asados que hago en la parrilla, la carne queda con un sabor completamente distinto y con una textura que no había experimentado antes.Recomiendo la compra a todo aquel que le guste asar carne tanto en parrilla como en horno, merece la pena la inversión.

Ottima, impugnandola, la sensazione di robustezza. Ottimo il materiale, un pesante acciaio inox a uso alimentare.A oggi, non ho trovato ancora alcun lato negativo, per cui merita decisamente cinque stelle.Consigliatissima.

Hochwertiges Produkt
Wieder vorweg: Die Spritze habe ich mir selbst gekauft, es handelt sich um kein "gespendetes" Produkt.Die Entscheidung für die Premiala fiel, nachdem ich ein wenig bei Amazon und im Web verglichen und gelesen hatte. Ausgangslage war eine größere Grillfeier mit pulled pork, das ich dieses Mal spritzen wollte. Bei der Suche stieß ich zuerst auf die Spritzen aus Kunststoff, preislich von 3,50 EUR bis 20 EUR. Bei allen Modellen gab es doch etliche schlechte Bewertungen, dass der Kunststoff brüchig wird, die Kanülen nicht halten, keine Ersatzkanülen verfügbar sind etc. Also nach Spritzen aus Metall gesucht. Hier gibt es wohl etliche Varianten - auch wenn sie optisch alle gleich aussehen. Bei den billigeren Modellen (billig, nicht günstig) ist die Spritze nur aus Aluguss, bei dem die Chrombeschichtung schnell abblättert - zumindest gibt es dahingehend viele Bewertungen.Die Bewertungen der Premiala waren durchweg positiv, also habe ich mich dafür entschieden. Der Preis von 20 EUR war - speziell im Vergleich mit den anderen Spritzen - auch in Ordnung.Der Versand erfolgte sehr schnell und sogar einen Tag früher, als Amazon angegeben hat. Meine Frage nach der Lieferzeit wurde vom Händler sehr schnell beantwortet.Die Spritze selbst liegt in einer ordentlichen Schachtel, alle Einzelteile liegen in getrennt voneinander in einer Art Schaumstoffbett (siehe Produktbilder). Ersteindruck der Spritze: ganz schön schwer! Offensichtlich wurde die Spritze wirklich aus Edelstahl gefertigt, nur der obere Verschlussteil mit den Fingerringen ist aus einfacherem Gussmaterial mit Chrombeschichtung. Die 3 Nadeln sind ebenfalls recht massiv, ein Verbiegen dürfte nicht so schnell machbar sein. Jede Nadel ist mit einem Gummiring versehen. Alle Gummidichtungen liegen zusätzlich als Ersatz in der Packung bei. Es gab beim Auspacken keine unangenehmen Gerüche oder irgendwelche Produktionsrückstände wie Öle oder dergleichen.Im Deckel der Verpackung sind Bedienhinweise aufgedruckt, sowie der Link zum eBook inklusive Download-Code. Das eBook selbst ist gut gemacht, bietet neben Hinweisen zum Spritzen auch Grundlagen darüber, was warum ins Fleisch gespritzt werden sollte und ein paar Rezepte für Marinaden/Spritzlake.Vor dem Betrieb wurde die Spritze einfach im Spülbecken gewaschen und die Gummidichtung des Kolbens mit ein wenig Öl benetzt.Die Spritze lässt sich leicht aufziehen, da hakelt nichts. Sie hält dicht, es gibt keine Lecks. Die Nadeln sind spitz/scharf genug, um sie leicht in das Fleisch stechen zu können (getestet bisher: die kleine Nadel und die 12-Loch-Nadel). Das Impfen meiner drei Schweinenacken ging problemlos.Beim Impfen habe ich eine sehr dünnflüssige Lake verwendet, so dass ich noch keine Aussage dazu treffen kann, wie sich die Kanülen bei dickflüssigeren Marinaden bezüglich Verstopfen verhält.Die Reinigung ist ebenso einfach, vor allem mit den beiliegenden Reinigungsbürsten für die Kanülen.Die Spritze kam bisher einmal zum Einsatz, da war alles bestens. Ehrlich gesagt, erwarte ich das aber selbst von einer Billigspritze.Tatsächlich macht aber die Premiala einen sehr hochwertigen Eindruck. Die sensiblen Stellen (Kanülen, Gewinde, Kolben..) sind stabil und gut verarbeitet, allein das Eigengewicht der Spritze vermittelt schon eine gewisse Wertigkeit.Bisher kann ich keine Schwachpunkte erkennen, so dass ich davon ausgehe, dass diese Spritze sehr lange Freude bereiten wird.(Der Hersteller wirbt ja auch mit seinem Kundenservice im Falle eines Schadens, Ersatzteile gibt es auch - somit sollte da nix schiefgehen können).Ich werde den Bericht immer mal wieder ergänzen, wenn weitere Erfahrungen vorliegen.Update: Bisher immer noch alles in bester Ordnung! Keine Mängel, keine Beanstandungen, die Spritze tut, was sie soll. Bin überzeugt von dem Produkt!
