Love it but $20? - Kitchen and dining room

I have compared different models, shapes etc and found this to be the best. I definitely don't regret the purchase. Perfectly designed for comfort and perfection, which is the most important thing. This product puts you in total control. I used it once and it was very easy to completely and evenly flatten my chicken breasts. I thought it was small but it was good. You'll just have to take a few more hits than if you were getting some more, but it doesn't matter. Mine had a crumpled bottom flat part, not scary either. Well as you can see from the photos this is clearly not a solid piece. The plastic handle fits the hand very well, but is made of very cheap plastic. The metal disk consists of two parts, hollow and filled with iron. The iron filling isn't very large as it feels like it can flex a bit all over the metal disc. There's a big gap, but I think it's closed well enough. However, I do not recommend you to purchase this item if you are planning to hit bare meat with this product. I use a freezer bag and that's fine, but this crevice, as well as the crevice on the handle, makes this product extremely unsanitary, even if you wash it in the dishwasher. I like it but can't believe the price. , because it is made as absolute rubbish. For $20 we should get a solid piece of metal. It should cost no more than $7.

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for the elderly
