What customers say
This cast aluminum tortilla press is praised as an accessible, budget friendly option for home cooks starting out. Its lightweight design and eight inch size are convenient for standard tortillas. Users find it performs adequately for basic corn tortillas when using plastic liners to prevent sticking. The primary drawback centers on build quality and durability. Several reviews note the handle mechanism is a weak point, often bending or breaking with repeated use or when extra pressure is applied. The hinge can also loosen, affecting evenness. While it successfully introduces users to homemade tortillas affordably, expect it to be best suited for occasional use rather than heavy duty pressing due to longevity concerns.
