What Customers Are Saying
The burger press has mixed reviews. Many customers found it useful for creating uniform, well-shaped patties and appreciated features like the dual setting and dimple for even cooking. However, a significant number reported issues with the meat sticking, making it difficult to remove the patties. Some felt the press was more work than it was worth, while a few had completely negative experiences. To get the best results, users recommend spraying the press with a non-stick cooking spray before use to prevent sticking.

Burger press
Would RecommendWorks as it should, only thing is a grease build up when making multiple burgers. Rinse with hot water seems to keep things moving along.

Works like a champ
Would RecommendMeat will definitely stick to it if you don't do something to prevent it. My wife and I put disks of parchment or freezer paper in the top before pressing each patty. Leave the paper between patties if freezing. Otherwise just peel it off and throw away. We didn't try it but a larger piece of plastic wrap in the top can probably be used and re-used or wrapped around the patty if freezing. We added shredded cheddar cheese, chopped mushrooms (1 oz each per patty), salt and Worcestershire sauce.
Easy to use
Would RecommendI just bought one of these because I had used one at the Weber cooking school. We put Saran Wrap on the bottom and the top inside of the press so clean up was very easy and nothing stuck to the inside surfaces. When you cook a burger that is uniformly thick it turns out perfect every time! I also liked the Weber seasonings.
Works great.
Would RecommendI bought the burger press on sale at a local Lowes. After reading the reviews about the burgers "sticking" I was a bit concerned. It didn't come with any directions other than how to clean it. After reading another review I coated the parts of the press that come in contact with the hamburg with Pam non stick cooking spray. (Any food grade oil will work I think.) I then used the press to make 1/2 lb. and 1/4 lb. burgers. They came out of the press easily and perfectly formed. I'm very happy ...
Pefect, if you follow directions
Would RecommendThis makes perfect patties but you have to follow the instructions and use a touch of cooking oil on the plastic when you start. Patties slip right out!
Waste of money
Sticks and doesn't work. I thought maybe the hamburger I was using but I'm done trying as I end up making by hand instead

Complete waste
Would Not RecommendIt's a decent idea, however the hamburger just sticks to it aND its impossible to actually get a burger out of it. I used it once and was so disappointed I threw it right in the trash
