Overall is a great thing if you know how to use it.
The size of the cells is super small, which is great.
It is not easier and not better, than to shape pelmeni by hand, but faster and with more consistent result.
You need to put maximum 1/2 tsp of meat in each cell, otherwise they will get stuck.
You necessarily need to apply a thin coat of any oil before using it. Make lower layer of dough thicker, and the upper layer of dough thinner.
Use a lot of flour to dust the layers during the process.
You need to apply a lot of force with the roller to cut pelmeni out.
To take them out of the mold, you need to shake the pelmeni maker strongly, and they will fall out.
Strongly recommend watching YouTube videos on the process before attempting to make pelmeni.
It is very tricky at the beginning, but once you get it, it is super easy.

I used Aleene’s Mixed Media adhesive and it was fine.
I do wish the legs were a bit longer. I have to use less than 1/2 teaspoon of filling. Any more and when the filling and bottom layer of dough are pushed through by the rolling the top layer hard enough to score the dumplings will cause the dumplings to be sort of flat pillows on the other side. You have to squeeze and push them back through the hole. Shaking or knocking the mold will not dislodge them.

Works as expected, but room for improvement.

The plastic on the underside was a little rough/jagged in places but it doesn't impede its function.
The form is sturdy and light and you don't have to worry about any residue like the aluminum ones.

Not for human mouth. So small like grape size.
