After perfectly filling the bell, the butter may be flush with water, but after first scoop, a bubble of normal bacteria-rich air will form between the butter and water. Totally pointless
I bought this last time it went on sale and like it. I went to see why it's frequently returned, I ended up using the AI to check it out: The main issues customers report:
Butter falls into water: Some users struggle with the butter dropping into the water basin, creating a messy situation
Learning curve: The product requires specific techniques (pressing butter firmly without air bubbles, using softened butter, proper water levels) that aren't intuitive for first-time users
Climate sensitivity: It works best in cooler environments - customers in hot climates report problems with the butter melting or not staying in place
Maintenance requirements: Changing water every 2-6 days and proper cleaning can be more than some customers expect
Mold concerns: A few customers report mold growth if water isn't changed frequently enough
Since I only started using it, I'll have to see if it holds up when summer rolls around. The first time I used it, the butter definitely fell in, but that was because I was in a rush and just tried to smash a completely cold half-used stick in there. Haven't had a problem in the last 2-3 sticks. Changing the water hasn't been an issue for me, I will do it around the time I'm doing the dishes, which is daily, so I haven't had any mold related issues, but I guess that's not for everyone. Luckily it doesn't need that much water to fill.
Overall, it's a little more maintenance than just keeping the stick in the fridge, so I can see why it's not for everyone, but keeping it spreadable has been great for my family so far, especially my kids who aren't patient enough to wait for it to soften up.
