J. Howard –
This will rust, and you need to pay attention to the pressure/resistance when pressingTempted by seeing recipes for making my own flour tortillas as well as for making my own naan, I finally broke down and got the Victoria 10″ Commercial Grade Cast Iron Tortilla Press & Burrito Press, New Secret Indestructible “HD Iron”. 10-Inch Tortilla and Quesadilla Maker, $88.98 with amazon 10% coupon. I had done a lot of research and wanted something that will last. I was tempted by both cheaper and more expensive ones, but a variety of reviews made me settle on this one. With proper care this thing should last for lifetimes, though the cast iron nature does introduce rust as a factor.First thing when I opened the box I saw that there was already a little rust one the top piece of one of the hinges. Very small and minor, and not a food surface area, and considering the box it was in was not airtight I suspect just regular high humidity in a warehouse was to blame.The rest of the press was fine. I got a gallon ziploc bag and cut the top and sides leaving the bottom connected and decided to make some flatbread out of a small blob of pizza dough we had on hand. Divided it into pieces (and found out that I am not that great at dividing it equally), rolled into balls and let sit on a plate under plastic wrap for 20 minutes to rest a bit. Put a large cast iron pan on the stove to heat up and then pressed the first dough ball between the plastic, turning and pressing additional times as recommended. It looked nice and thin and decently sized when stuck between the plastic. As soon as took it out though it shrank immediately, but this is a function of the dough used, NOT the press. (Any review complaining about the dough shrinking back is basically confirming that the press worked and the dough was at fault, don’t blame your equipment for something that isn’t the equipment’s fault.) Immediately threw the dough onto the hot pan, flipped a couple of times, and had a nice (albeit small) flatbread. Repeated with the others and the process was the same for all of them. At the end the press didn’t need to be cleaned because I was using the plastic the whole time and the dough never touched it.Things to note:-This is heavy cast iron. When setting it on your counter it might leave marks depending on the surface. We have some large thin plastic cutting boards so I set it on one of those and it was fine.-The seasoning is suspect in some areas. Because it is cast iron I would advise not letting it air dry. Use some paper towels and dry it off completely. If you use plastic or parchment paper when pressing your tortillas you shouldn’t need to clean it often.-I saw reviews about people breaking the handles from pressing too hard. I imagine that is possible, but if you press slowly you will feel the “squishy” resistance as the dough flattens out and that that will stop as you reach maximum flatness. That is the point where pressing harder isn’t going to do you any good and you can stop. Using that as a guide I had no worries or concerns about breaking it.In the end it does what it is supposed to do. Is it worth more than the cheaper ones? I don’t know, and won’t know because I don’t see myself replacing this.Another thing to note, keep the box it comes in to make it easier to store. It is large and unusual in shape so unless you have an open spot on a shelf somewhere that you don’t have to worry about stacking things the box makes it easier to deal with since you can set other items (not overly heavy ones) on top.

Great value, “buy it for life” quality.Excellent tortilla press, consistently makes level tortillas with no weird flat spots.Very easy to use and assemble. A couple weird burrs from manufacturing that needed to be sanded out but nothing I wouldn’t expect.The listing says that this is pre-seasoned- ignore that and season anyways. Use something with a high smoke point for two or three days.Very happy with this purchase, looking forward to using this for decades to come. My kids will fight over this when my wife and I pass sixty years from now.

works for paleoI read warnings about how the handle broke for people so i was careful not to press on the handle too hard, a gentle touch is all that is necessary anyway. i cut a big ziploc bag along the two longest sides, put my ball of dough in between the top and bottom of the plastic film (thus covering the inner top and bottom sides of the press) and used that to press the tortilla made of water, psyllium husk and almond flour. i have celiac and i try to eat paleo or non dairy keto.i pressed it gently, moved the flattened tortilla vertically down a little, gently pressed again, then moved it around again and gently pressed one final time. the resulting tortillas are beautiful circles, like taco sized – 7.5-8″ — far, far easier than using a rolling pin or a pie pan to flatten them (those options didn’t work for me). this was a revelation. it works! i quickly learned the hard way if i dumped the tortilla from the plastic bag to the frying pan, they’d be too thin and break (probably my ingredients’ fault, definitely not the tortilla press), they’d basically lose their shape and fall into themselves when i was dumping them off the plastic overhead of the frying pan, but if i gingerly lifted the tortilla with my hands and brought it to the pan with my own hands rather than letting it fall off the plastic, the tortilla woudln’t break. again, i am not using wheat or corn ingredients so i am not a typical case.Basically I learned, i need to eat TWO of these taco sized burritos to feel full because 7.5″/7.75″/8″ tortilla isn’t enough to fill with a lot of stuff. so i end up eating a lot of tortilla shells with not much filling – i’d rather have one more normal sized burrito with more veggie filling. again, not this company’s fault. so i need a bigger one and i made myself write a review in case it can help someone else make a purchasing decision and save everyone shipping costs. the company did nothing wrong.could be good for taco shells or if you know you already like smaller sized tortilla, it gets the job done. the box it comes in is so quaint and cute and it even has an extra pin. this item just looks like it’s going to last forever, i saw this and immediately put this in the “wow, i rarely see such high quality stuff nowadays.” i could see something like this being in my grandma’s kitchen 40 years ago and still working today.I’ve heard if you use cast iron you’re never supposed to wash it in soap and water bc it will rust, just wipe it off with a dish towel or something. I’m not sure if this is still true.so even though im returning it bc i need something bigger, the item is as advertised and i give it 5 stars.

Makes tortillas just fineWorks great. Tortillas and roti are easy to make with this. Storage is a bit of a problem, but it’s worth it if you make tortillas often enough.
Gage –
Other reviews had me worried!This works perfectly well! I was afraid it’d break during the first use, but it’s sturdy and flattens tortillas nicely. I’ve been using it for a few months with no trouble.

One of the bestI’ve been using it for a while now and I’m so happy with it. Very durable, and does its job perfectly. Just be careful not to get it wet since it’s cast iron and it will rust. I clean it by wiping it with a damp towel and drying it immediately. Also make sure you use the right recipe with it, and also use a cut Ziplock bag on both sides of your dough. I found that it’s best for corn tortillas but also works with flour tortillas if you use a good recipe for them. Don’t hesitate to buy it if you’re looking for one.
