Fantastic, thin flour and corn tortillas
This is a fantastic tortilla press for both corn and flour tortillas! For those saying that it does not press their flour tortillas thin enough, you have missed such a simple reason (don't feel badly, I missed it too until a kind baker pointed it out to me in a social media post).The secret? For flour tortillas, you have to use the press while it is hot! This is why the thing is cast iron. Put it on your stove burner and turn it on medium high heat. Do not use the wax paper rounds. Just lightly brush oil on the top and bottom plates and close it. Once hot, Use an oven mitt to open it, put your dough ball in the center, and press for no more than 3 seconds (it comes out too thin - we are talking tissue paper thin - if you press any longer!).For optimal speed, transfer to a separate pan to finish cooking, but know that it cooks fast - 20 seconds per side.I can make 24 flour tortillas in under 20 minutes: my limiting speed at the moment is the number I can cook on my griddle at one time; not the press.For corn tortillas, use the wax paper circles and a cold press. Do not press with all your strength: corn falls apart if you get it too thin.

Simply the best
Excellent tortilla press. The press is heavy, as all cast iron is, and durable. I'm impressed with the value. I had an aluminum one before this and always thought it was too flimsy for the job. I chose the 9.84" version because I was being cheap - it had been marked down at the time I ordered it so I took a chance. I'm glad I did. It makes the perfect sized tortillas. I didn't use the parchment paper rounds included with it because I think plastic works better. I discovered by lifting the top of the plastic after pressing, the tortilla literally peels itself off the plastic. It didn't work as easily using the parchment paper but it was worth the experiment. Plus the plastic is a simple rinse and reuse. Can't do that with paper. The thickness of the tortillas was awesome. If folks follow the instructions that come with the press, thinness isn't a problem. I popped them on my Hexclad frying pan as I made them so I was done with twenty tortillas almost as fast as I could press them out.

Not bad! Needs to be thinner.
Works great, but I feel the tortillas are still on the thick side. Would like thinner sized. Very heavy and durable. Use wax paper on top and bottom for quick cleaning.

Heavy duty!
Weighing in at 15 lbs, it is a serious peirce os kitchen equipment. Along with tortillas, I also use it to make hamburger patties. However, don't press too hard or they will be paper thin. If you need to flatten out a chicken breast, this is the right tool. It comes with parchment sheets and would make an excellent gift.

Why would I ever buy tortillas again?
After getting this, I have no reason to ever buy store bought tortillas again. Five simple ingredients was all it took. It comes with some round parchment paper which makes it even easier. A quick press with this and a quick cook on a griddle. So easy and they taste so much better than store bought and they were cheaper too.

Not Quite the Final Step, But a Solid Start
This tortilla press wants to be the hero of your kitchen—but if you’re chasing that perfectly thin, traditional flour tortilla, it only gets you halfway there. It flattens the dough into a respectable disc, but not thin enough for real-deal tortillas. I always have to follow up with a rolling pin to finish the job. So if you're dreaming of paper-thin flour tortillas, don’t toss your rolling pin just yet.To be fair, I haven’t used it for corn tortillas, which it might be better suited for. It’s well-built, feels sturdy in the hand, and makes prep faster. It’s just not magic—and it doesn’t flatten as much as you’d think unless you’re making tiny tortillas for toddlers or tapas.Bottom line: it’s a good tool, but not the one-stop solution you might expect. Great for saving time, but traditionalists (and perfectionists) will still be rolling by hand.
