Great 4.5" press / The Dimple is important
By Clay Cope
The press produces just over 4.5" diameter burgers and are just perfect for fitting buns. You can obviously make them as thick as you like.
After reading some of the other reviews, I have a couple of comments.
- The Dimple is important. Have you ever noticed that burgers tend to "dome" up while cooking? The dimple prevents this from happening. This explains why Costco has a hole in the middle of their pre-pattied burgers. If they didn't, the burgers would end up like a baseball. The thicker the patty, the greater the "dome" effect.
- This press is dishwasher safe. Need I say anything else.
- The removable dimple insert is a great addition. After pressing, simply remove and flip your patty where ever you want it.
- Regarding meat, I would highly recommend from ground chuck. If you must used ground beef, you want at least 15% fat to give it some flavor.
- Although the press is made of plastic, it's plenty sturdy enough to press a patty.
Great press. Definitely worth the $5 amazon has it listed at.

5 STARS! Works like they say!
By GDF
Excellent product, very easy to use and makes uniform burgers for the grill and the dimple in the middle ensures there is no "plumping up" in the middle.
When we make them we lay a sheet of plastic wrap underneath with half hanging over, make the paddy, flip it over and fold the other half of the plastic wrap and its sealed ready for storage or keeps the burgers from sticking together. Very quick without a mess.
Super nice invention!
