   Wood handles is a bit small for my hand so I need to watch carefully OR use a hot pad but it does what it’s supposed to and works well

   Si hubiese funcionado en esos sartenes cuadrados para asar carne, resultaría perfecto, pero queda ligeramente grande: aun así, el resultado es bastante satisfactorio. Para la parrilla, 5 estrellas!

   Handle: With the original narrow handle I kept burning myself every time I picked this thing up, while cooking. I guess this was made for smaller hands as when I grabbed it, with my whole hand, I would touch both side of the metal bracket, both on top and inside. I finally decided to make an upgrade with some cherry I had lying around. I made it larger in diameter and also drilled/carved it at the ends so that it would cover the ends. Press: The press itself works very well, although it is warped and does not lay flat, due to 2 corners being high. This hasn’t caused any issues in use, so I’m not going to be too hard on it. The factory seasoning seems to be really nice also and is pretty thick. After a quick scrubbing to clean it initially it didn’t seem to diminish the seasoning and I have since added more to it. All in all, even with making a new handle and it being warped, I’m going with 4 stars as it does what it’s supposed to do and does it well. It would easily be 5 stars if I didn’t have to upgrade it.

   Got this as a gift for my parents and they really like it. It is plenty big but it does take up a lot of storage space.

   I like it. It is especially handy my outdoor grill when cooking up a bunch of bacon.

    Listen this thing looks like crap the handle wasn’t square to the screw holes however my wooden handle was not cracked like others received. The product is listed at about 5 1/2 pounds but it weighs way more than that about 8 3/8. Personally I think that heavier the better when using it as a press. In fact I think it could be heavier . But if looking for is a piece of cast-iron to press down anything you’re searing on a flat top or grill, this works great. I uploaded a picture of steaks that I used this press to seat them with. They looked great and tasted even better it certainly did a job. I would probably buy high-quality one over this however if you’re looking for a fairly cheap option that works I would buy this. I hope this was helpful.

    Nice and heavy and sturdy. Seems to be made very well too, just like the smaller round one I’ve been using. And if I’m not mistaken, still made in the USA. Perfect size, no complaints at all although I wish it was flat instead of the ridges but that’s just my preference.

    Cuisinart did this right; size, weight and construction are all top-shelf.
    The best feature is the handle (weight is great too). The handle stays are part of the casting (handle is wood of course) and not, one of those “screw-on” versions seen on many other griddle weights.
    This handle construction is the same as what you find in equipment used by restaurants and other cooking professionals. I know this for certain as I grew up in a Chicago tavern and cooked professionally for many years. The direct casting of the handle stays to the base is important for hygiene and durability. If you have to screw the handle to the base there is a void in that connection that collects grease and grime. Hard to clean and not sanitary. Not an issue here.
    I’ve used mine for everything. Grilled cheese, fish, smash-burgers, etc. Works great and cleans up with little effort. I maintain mine the same way as my cast iron pans.
