AIVIKI Burger Press, Smash Burger Press for Blackstone Griddle, Heavy Duty Cast Iron Round 6.9In & Rectangular 8.2x4.2In Bacon Grill Press with Wood Handle, Meat Steak Weight for Sandwich, Paninis

I decided to give this product a shot. It had good reviews. Very good quality and sturdy. Also cleans very easily. I would recommend this.

Good weight without tearing up the meat. Makes smashburgers cook evenly with crispy edges. Not too light or to heavy. Works as they should.

These presses are GREAT. I use them for steaks and they never disappoint. As with most other cast iron products they do rust fairly quickly so you have to wash them then dry and oil them to prevent that.

There's not a lot to these things - just a cast iron weight for grilling or cooking. But as a first time user, I wish there was even a slip of paper about care and use. I did my due diligence to look up that info and recommend anyone else who is new to using these do the same. The wood handle of one got a little scuffed, I think in shipping from rubbing against the other iron. A quick steel wool sanding buffed that out. I followed some online instructions for seasoning it. These really didn't seem pre-seasoned to me. I removed the handles before seasoning in the oven. Next time I will use the grill outside because the oil smoked up more than I expected. I used mineral oil and butcher block conditioner on the handles since they were raw wood and it seemed like that might help reduce cracking or staining later. Because the handles are just held on by two screws, this should make it easy to turn my own handle later. I think I want a larger grip as these are kind of thin but seem sufficient if you aren't abusing the tools.

If you love smash burgers like I do, the AIVIKI Burger Press (Smash Burger Press for Blackstone Griddle, Heavy Duty Cast Iron Round) is a game-changer. This thing has quickly become my new favorite kitchen gadget. It's made of solid, heavy-duty cast iron – feels substantial and built to last, with a nice weight that helps you smash the patties thin and even without much effort. The round shape is perfect for standard burger sizes (gets you those crispy edges every time), and the handle is comfortable with good grip, so you don't burn your hand when pressing on a screaming-hot griddle. I use it on my Blackstone: drop a ball of ground beef, smash it flat with this press, and it creates that perfect thin patty with maximum crust – way better than hand-pressing or using a spatula. It releases cleanly (I give it a quick oil brush before use), no sticking issues, and cleanup is easy – just scrub it like any cast iron and season as needed. The results speak for themselves: juicy inside, ultra-crispy edges, and consistent thickness every single time. No more uneven burgers or patties that fall apart. It's made smash burger nights so much easier and more fun – definitely worth it for anyone who griddles burgers regularly. These are my new go-to for smash burgers. Highly recommend – you won't go back to pressing by hand!

Great little buger press and looks great . Cast iron and must be treated as such . Seasoned well . Love it .

Tuff and heavy. Lasts forever and works great.

We purchased this set to make smash burgers. They work well. My only complaint would be they started to get rust spots since we leave them under our grill in the humidity.

Nice weight and sturdy.

Very well made. Nice and heavy with a solid handle.
