After two years, I would very much hope they've remedied that problem by now. So you think a *good* design is one that makes the contents dribble down the side of the product?

If you read about it, it says how guy like their gadgets and its based on a gadget. I guess this is jstu his option, but in a design thought, he knows nothing The writer of this post ovbiously knows nothing about the design though.

I think it is a good design. But i do think that the old classic pull off lid is so much easier. I bought my dad a can and he pulled th twister off cuz he thort it was a lid. I disagree.

Yeah I agree, when it's dark first thing in the morning you have no idea which direction the nozzle is facing. Seems like Unilever are sticking with it though for some odd reason. Bizarre.

The button is far too big, and makes it very hard to accurately aim the spray. The old design enabled you to feel that the nozzle was in line with your finger. The new design button covers about 120 degrees, meaning you have no idea where the spray is going to go without looking, and then you end up with the spray in your face/eyes. Not good. The old type slide top was good, as the button was small enough for you to know by feel that the spray was going to go in-line with where your finger pointed.
