Didn't know what I was missing
I'm a fan of cast iron but never had any kind of grill press before. I love this thing. I have used it so far for burger patties and hot sandwiches.PROS:-- I can easily use this in my 8qt Ninja Foodi without banging it against the sides or scratching the pot.-- It's the perfect weight for keeping a burger patty from shrinking & it holds sandwiches in place without pushing the filling out into the pan.-- It's been easy to clean after pressing ground beef patties. As long as I wipe it clean with a little oil on a rag while it's still hot, everything comes right off. I don't "wash" it with soap but treat it like I do all my cast iron - cleaning with oil and, if needed, salt. I oil it and store it with my other cast iron pieces.-- Having the handle be cast iron as well is what makes this so great for me. I can use it on my Foodi which is what I cook most meals in. I was worried about wooden and other non-iron handles standing up to heat over time.-- Takes less time to cook ground beef patties - maybe because of the more even heat?CON:-- Not really the fault of design but just a little bit of care has to be taken when handling this. When I use it to press meats, I have to watch for dripping oils and moisture when removing the iron. I've started putting a pie pan nearby when I use this so that I can store it there to hold any drippings.I'm really glad to have this. I thought it was just going to be for meats and sandwiches but I used it last night to hold down a pie crust while I browned it. I just had to use much lower heat when browsing the crust and I had to put parchment paper between the iron and the crust.

I’m very happy with this product. I make burgers into 1/3 lb balls and smush them flat with a piece of parchment to keep the press clean.

It should be noted this is for making more traditional burgers not thin smash burgers as there is some depth to the press and thickness to the patty after.
