The good: Near perfect weight. Handle is easy to grip, even for large hands. Does exactly what it is supposed to do at an excellent price. I have pounded many dozens of chicken breasts and steaks with this. Very comfortable and effective.
The bad: The weight has two parts, an inner weight surrounded by the outer stainless steel casing. The two do not come apart. When washed upright, then turned over to dry, rusty water drips from the seam between the weight and casing. Obviously, the inner weight is not stainless steel. And also obviously, meat juice can enter this space. Because of this I wash it in the dishwasher then boil it to be sure it is thoroughly clean.
Notes: I have used this pounder for about six months. I would buy it again and recommend it. However, I would also strongly recommend the wash and boil routine after every use to be sure it is clean and sanitized.

We have used this pounder.It's really heavy but it works well. We have also used it to smooth crumb crusts and it does a good job. I beat a couple of pork chops with it and they were quite tender. It does what it's supposed to do. Thanks.
