 One of my favorite kitchen tools January 9, 2006

This is something that had been on my wish list for a while. I had not used one before but I liked the concept. Finally got one for my birthday a couple of years ago, and this has grown into one of my favorite tools. For bacon, nothing is better. I cook up 5 pounds at a time and freeze in 4-slice packs, and this little beauty makes the cooking process easy. Nice flat pieces that are great for that after-work BLT. Works great for panini and is definitely cheaper and easier to use than a specialized machine that does the same job for 5 times the price.
This is a real low-tech old school way of cooking that proves over and over again why its still so popular.
Actually, a GREAT piece that does its job well August 12, 2005

I can not agree with the previous reviewer. This is a tremendous quality, HEAVY cast iron grill press which does an excellent job on keeping bacon flat, cooking grilled cheese, pressing out fat from burgers(although why would you want to, fat = flavor). Basically it will handle any job where you need things flatter, with the added bonus of cast iron's unique heat retention. In addition, its size and roundness, as opposed to the traditional rectangular grill press, mean that it will fit almost any skillet 7" or bigger. Nice and versatile.
It is not made like "modern" pieces with a slick non-stick coating that eventually flakes off. It is not something you throw in the dishwasher when its dirty. It requires some maintenance, yes. But the quality of the build, the heaviness of the press, and the way cast iron retains heat make it all very much worth it. If you care about the quality of your cooking, not just convenience, you are a cast iron person and would love this press. LODGE is one of the best manufacturers in the country, and their pieces are found in kitchens ranging from mine(ha!) to those in 5-star restaurants. Buy with peace of mind knowing you are getting the best, and with care so will your children, and grandchildren, and great-grandchildren because cast iron lasts.
Great little tool. May 14, 2007

We're vegetarians so I can't speak to its meat-cooking qualities, but it's great for making paninis and grilled cheese! It doesn't entirely fit (as in touch the bottom) in our 8-inch Lodge cast-iron pan, but of course fits into the 10 and 12-inchers. Very high quality and can't beat the free shipping. There is also a rectangle-shaped Lodge grill press elsewhere on this site.
It's a Bacon Press. It gets hot, and flattens your bacon. May 12, 2007

Not much more to say. You can also use it for keeping split chicken flat etc. I like it. It does what it says it is going to do.

Everything I expected. Heavy, functional. The review about difficult assembly made me a little hesitant before purchasing; however, assembling the handle can be accomplished easily in less than a minute. I've even used it like a paperweight on some "almost permenantly rolled up" newspapers to help them lie flat. Still, its best use is for the really thick slices of bacon that come from the local butcher, as intended. Cast iron is a great cooking tool as far as I'm concerned.
