I ordered this item for my sister since I already own it and knew that it would do exactly what she wanted with minimal stress and strain for her hand. This was critical since she recently underwent extensive hand surgery. The handle design of this meat pounder makes it easy to hold and the weight of the head does the job with a minimum of force - a perfect combo. The only caution is that the small size of the pounder head can make it easy to break apart the meat (especially true for chicken) if one is a bit too aggressive! And the supplier was great in getting the correct item shipped to my sister quickly after a different model meat pounder had been shipped to her by mistake. I talked directly with the owner and she was most gracious and even included a small gift with the correct item. I would certainly do business with this supplier again!

excellent price; best one for the buck; has two sides; one for tenderizing and one for flattening meats such as chicken breast; good weight nice handle and well balanced.

This meat hammer works very well. Because of its large size, it tenderizes and flattens the meat rather quickly. It's not too heavy, either. I would highly recommend it.

Overall, the quality of this product is reasonably good for the price you pay, and the non-slip handle is comfortable in my medium-size hands. The problem I have is that the product description deceptively says it is dishwasher safe, and that is the primary reason I bought it. However, when I received it the package clearly states that it should not be placed in a dishwasher, and there is a sticker on the handle with the same warning. Buy this if you want a decent tenderizer at a low price, but know that you will have to wash it by hand.

Before this, I was using a soup can to tenderize my meats. This is obviously a step up in class, but does the same purpose. A side note: I don't believe this should be washed in a dishwasher. It looks like it might rust.

Product was exactly what I was looking for in a tenderizer. It had a great handle with a rubber grip, and it had the weight that is needed to do a good job. Best one that I have seen on the market and I would recommend it to anyone who is looking for one that qualifies as "Heavy Duty" use.

This Meat Hammer can not be put in the diswasher and thus can not be sanitized!....False information provided. Unsafe item.
