I have a bottle of Gorilla Wood glue that hardened in the bottle. I called the Gorilla 800 number and she told me that glue ,in the bottle, lasts 1-2 years and further was able to tell me that my bottle was 3 years old, so I guess it's best to check the date before you buy a glue, (although I can't find any date on my Titebond glue.) Anyway, despite my glue being beyond its useful life, the Gorilla people are sending me a coupon for a new bottle. I did not ask for that, pretty good service from the Gorilla people.

Gorilla Glue is a family owned company local here in Cincinnati. They seem to have a good reputation as an employer too.
I have had good luck with their Wood Glue and their Super Glue. The Super Glue seems to stay good in the bottle and not dry out for a good amount of time.

Here is a good read about the glue they offer. Their wood glue has wood fiber in it.

Learned the hard way that ape glue has a shelf life......only buy small bottles now.

Recently "discovered" their clear non-foaming ape glue. Excellent for doing furniture repairs when it's impossible to remove all the old hard glue.
