Prep Solutions by Progressive Patty Press - 5 Piece Set

These are exactly what I was looking for. We were having a birthday party for our son and wanted to make sliders, but I wanted a quick way to do it since there was a lot of them to be made. This was inexpensive and worked perfectly. It took a few tries to get the hang of putting the right amount of meat in the circle, but once you're in the flow of it it was pretty effortless. It made the food prep a lot easier!!Also, what made me decide to purchase this patty press was the fact that it is all self-contained. Everything fits perfect into a small plastic 'case' that the actual press locks into. Barely takes up any space and it fits neatly in my drawer.Great purchase, works perfectly for the job it's supposed to do, and price is right!

Interesting idea in concept but misses the mark. My biggest issue is that the largest size is not large enough to make a patty that will fit on the bigger hamburger buns. It is right sized for the average bun. This is especially true when you consider that patties shrink during cooking. The rings are also not very deep so you won't be making thick patties with this set.

When I'm batch cooking, or making a quantity of patties (burger, salmon, veggie, sausage), I like to be consistent in the size and shape of each one.This is useful for a couple of reasons:1. When you're cooking for others, it's a sign of respect and caring if the food is presentable. I like to remember the proverb, "Food should feast the eyes as well as the stomach." Having burger patties that look like they were made by Edward Scissorhands will not achieve that goal.2. When you're making a food budget, you want to be able to carefully portion out the ingredients so that there are no surprises. Also, it's easier to achieve consistent, high-quality results when the portions are all the same size.My only complaint is that you're really best off hand-washing these. On the bright side, you only use them once per batch, so if you do your main cooking once or twice a week, it's not an issue.

I really like this hamburger press. My mom has one that is more container like, with a bottom. I like this one better because you just need to get the ring off after pressing. I press them right on the freezer paper sheets and stack them to wrap and freeze. The biggest is great for the really big buns, the middle for normal size, and the smallest for those really tiny buns you can find sometimes. I don't find the press or rings stick until I've done quite a few hamburgers. Then I wipe it with a paper towel quick and keep going. Throw it in the dishwasher when I'm finished.

This is so nice! Love the different sizes! Small for the young ones, next size is our usual, and next size for picnics. I buy the 10 pound Chub of Hamburger. (Cheaper) cut in half. Season some with Mesquite seasoning (our favorite) and some differently each time. Press them out. Place on cookie sheet. Use parchment paper for differen layers freeze for 3-4 hour. Then take 6 or 8 make two stacks, placing wax paper between them and vacuum seal. Now you always have seasoned hamburger patties for those nights you don’t want a lot of work in the kitchen. I figure this saves me, time and lots of money! I get brags!

Absolutely love this press! The burgers came out awesome, the press is easy to use and clean, and all of the components store together neatly. If you're a touch OCD like I am, you will love this! The standard sized burgers cook up fine as is, but the sliders will puff up while cooking. Let them thaw and just press your thumb into the center to make a dent about halfway through the patties and they won't turn into balls while cooking. We mixed crumbled bacon and carmelized onions into our meat before pressing and they were super tasty!

These are such a good price, I tried 2 different kinds. This one has more sizes than the other but for some reason the meat sticks to these rings and gets things messy. Instead of patty just popping out, it sticks to the ring and can pull the patty apart. Disappointing

This is probably the best all around burger maker we've seen. Multiple size options, easy clean-up, and all-in-one storage.
