HULISEN 8.5-Inch Burger Press, 2.5 lbs Heavy Duty Bacon & Grill Press, Stainless Steel Smashed Burger Press, Round Smasher with Wood Handle, BBQ Griddle Accessories for Hamburger, Steak, Meat

This weighty stainless steel bacon press is the best defense to have (almost) flat bacon at breakfast or anytime that foodstuff is in the recipe. It also cuts down on the splatter and clean-up is a snap! This simple but effective kitchen aid also allows the flat bacon when cooled to be able to "crunch" into uniform bits more effectively for adding to a salad in lieu of the artificial bits available in the store. The press can also be used for burgers, but my preference is the high thick patty and not the "smashed variety.

Tired of your undersized 5" burger press? I was! I got the Hulisen 8.5" burger press and now I can smash anything! This press is heavy! It is heavier than it looks and is solid stainless steel. I used it last weekend for my smash burgers and it works great! I smashed my 1/3 cup burger balls down flat. It smashed them a lot flatter than I was getting with my 5" press and I got perfect crust on my burgers. I also did not use any parchment paper on them and none of them stuck. I pressed them and held them for about 10 seconds, did a little twist while I removed it and all burger patties came off clean, no tears. I also didn't need to use my blue silicone Smurf glove while I was smashing and got very little grease splatter. It was all contained under the burger press. It also has a nice wooden handle, so no burning your hand when the press gets hot. Okay, I really didn't need the 8.5" press, but it looked so intimidating (to the burger) so I went for it. I do not regret going big. I am very impressed with the Hulisen burger press and will enjoy using it for years to come! Hulk like! Hulk smash!

It's heavy, it's solid and I get two hands and really squoosh a burger down under some parchment paper. I also like it for placing on top of bacon to keep it flat. It fits nicely inside my frying pan with just a little room around the edges. It washes up easily and it's just what I was looking for.

This was a gift for a burger meister, but I have to admit, I got them so my guy could make me a burger. The press is cool. You can heat it up on the stove or grill and then press the patty from above, might be useful for smash burgers, I don’t know. Pretty nifty but not always needed. The press is very large and heavy, has a wooden handle and is well crafted. Now the dome has turned into a major player in our kitchen. We used to melt everything under a rusty wok lid from the 1970’s but now we have this nice, shiny, new cooking dome that is big and covers everything perfectly. I’m so glad this gift has gone to good use, and the burgers are delish every time.

High quality. Smooth on the bottom for easy cleaning. Stainless steel so its dishwasher safe. A nice upgrade from the old cast iron bacon press that would rust every time you wash it.

This is a good heavy stainless steel press. It works well for bacon, in an extra large pan. The bacon cooks fast, compared to bacon that isn't pressed. Be sure to have sheets of paper towel ready to put the press on when you remove it from the plan. Wash up by hand-- don't soak it or immerse in water due the wooden handle. Would have given it 5 stars, except that the food side of the press is not completely smooth. It has two small circles-- that are smooth-- from the fasteners that attach the handle to the press. There is a very small ring around each of the two circles. The circle and the small ring don't change the performance of the press. It simply means you have to carefully clean the press, and the small rings around the circles-- and wipe the press well dry after each use. It's just a maintenance matter. The resulting bacon is terrific. Best bacon I've ever made. Well worth the price of the press.

I had a couple of cast iron presses for years. They were very difficult to clean, requiring a stiff srub brush. They eventually became quite nasty. So I bought this stainless steel steel press. I LOVE it. Extremely well built. It is perfectly flat so it is very easy to clean. It is also bigger than most cast iron presses so while I needed two of the latter, one of these is sufficient for my needs. Although some reviewers have expressed disappontment that this unit isn't as heavy as cast iron press, it is more than adequate for me. I suspect that even with 'thick cut' bacon it should be more than heavy enough.

This press is a beast made extremely well no issues whatsoever can't wait to use love it
