He is in charge of all the hamburger grilling around here because he makes them better than anyone else in the family. He really loves this wonderful tool. He says the meat doesn't stick at all, and he can make the burgers any thickness he wants. He hates having to get the hamburger under his fingernails, so this saves him all that trouble too.

We buy our meat in bulk, so this is a great way to freeze up individual patties too. We just stack them with a piece of waxed paper between each of the patties. I'm diabetic, so this regulates my portions very nicely too.

This is one of those little tools that you will never regret having in your kitchen because you will use it a lot. I use it on salmon patties, meat loaf patties, etc, and have even pressed some veggie/noodle combinations in it for freezing.

The greatest part is that you can put it in the dishwasher! I always prefer using the dishwasher with any item that comes in contact with raw meat.

It's a real pleaser for this Ma and Pa combination!

Nothing is better looking than a thick, juicy hamburger made from Angus beef. Nothing creates a thick hamburger patty better than this. I've tried lots of methods and this works better than anything for creating perfect, bun-sized burgers.

I got one of these after seeing it an remembering my mother using one for years. This item works very well and I have had no problem with the design, use or cleanup. Dishwashing is fine and essential for dealing with raw meats. I usually cover a surface with something like plastic wrap, than wax paper and than make my patties. This keeps my counters from being contaminated.

I was buying premade patties for portion control and to allow me to freeze small amounts. (I can add one burger to make a meat sauce, or cook up one pattie as a pizza topping, etc) But the cost of pre-made patties is higher. This allows me to buy at bulk prices and just make my own patties. I can also make my own *meat loaf* mixes rather than buying them...which is more expensive. Or mix some turkey for low fat with some lean beef for flavor and color for a *kid-fooling* substitute.

I'm very happy with my purchase of this and if it lasts as long as my moms did, I will have it for a very long time.

I like this product. I'm able to make as thick or thin hamburgers that I want. Plus premake them and then freeze them for future use. Big plus in my household especially since I like to have a fresh (frozen) hamburger pattie to take with me to work and cook up in the toaster oven. Great little kitchen aid especially those with children, you can allow your child to assist in making the burgers without worrying if they will cut themselves or something else. Easy clean up too.

I LOVE this product, it forms perfectly shaped hamburger patties in less time and much less mess! You can either purchase or cut out wax paper circles and place them on the bottom of the press before you place your ball of meat ontop to produce clean release burgers everytime! By doing this, you can stack freshly pressed burgers one right on top of the other without them mashing and sticking together. You can make up several hamburgers/turkey burgers ahead of time, stack, zip lock and freeze them for whenever you need to pull out a quick meal from the freezer!

RECOMMENDED

kitchen aid. A good way to make burgers and gets them the size of the buns so there wont be more bun than burger.

Perfect shaped burgers every time. Friends wonder how burgers are so perfect every time I grill out.

The best thing about it is that you can compress the meat to make good firm burgers that don't fall apart while cooking or eating. You can even mix in your favorite seasonings (onion salt, onion soup mix, etc.) before you press them and freeze. Even great to use it when your not freezing. It's less expensive then buying preformed burgers in the meat case and better than the ones from the freezer case.

$35 minus the TUPPERWARE brand name = $3

There is absolutely no reason this piece of plastic should be priced @ $35!
I gave it 2 stars only because the quality is good.
However, there are SEVERAL non-stick aluminum, spring-loaded presses on the market that cost around $20!
They are MUCH less work and handle a much larger volume of ground beef. Shop around, don't pay for a name!

All of the parts are a little flimsy, you need 4 hands to really get this right. The meat starts to squeeze out between the press and the sides and when you are done pressing it sticks to the press. I was able to make it work, but it is really not worth the trouble, I would not buy it again.
