Victoria8 Inches Cast Iron Tortilla Press, Roti Maker and Tortilladora, Pataconera Seasoned with Flaxseed Oil, Made in Colombia

This cast iron tortilla press is an excellent tool that delivers on both performance and value. It’s surprisingly versatile, I originally got it for tortillas, but have since used it for pie crusts and dumpling wrappers too. The press is simple to use, just place your dough ball slightly closer to the hinge (vs. the middle), close the lid, and press down with the handle. It flattens dough evenly into a nice circular shape that’s hard to replicate with a rolling pin, and does so quickly and consistently. The cast iron has a solid, heavy feel that actually works in your favor, you don’t need to apply much force to get great results. It comes pre-seasoned, which is nice, and while mine didn't have any rust or issues, I still recommend giving it a quick light oil coat every now and then to maintain it. Using parchment paper between the plates also help keep cleanup nice and easy. The handle feels sturdy and reliable with no signs of stress or cracking so far, and the flat, compact design makes storage easy, even with the handle still attached. All in all, works beautifully, and feels built to last. Definitely worth a try in my opinion!

I didn’t think I needed this tortilla press in my life. But have you seen the price of store bought tortillas lately? They are just flour and water!! So I bit the bullet and bought this press. It really doesn’t take up that much room in your kitchen. Makes fresh, easy peasy, yummy tortillas very quick! I made corn and flour tortillas for tacos for the fam and they were delicious! Warning-they are addictive! I ate two tortillas hot off the pan!! One note though-my flour tortillas shrank up and were not super thin. They came out more like naan or pita thickness, which is great, just not for tacos. Upon further research I found the press is used mainly for corn torts. Flours (for tacos) are usually rolled out thin with a rolling pin. The flour tortilla dough also needs rest time. So I flattened them out with this press then continued to roll thinner. I will need a little work on getting this down for flour tortillas. But, none the less, they both came out great. Fresh, simple ingredients. I will also use this press for my pizza dough for my pizza oven to make individual sized pizzas as my family likes thin pizza crust. I just buy the raw dough from my local pizza shop ($2). This press is worth the money, IMO. Takes taco and pizza night to the next level!

Simple, Sturdy, and Perfect Tortillas Every Time!I recently started using this tortilla press, and I'm seriously impressed. It's solid, easy to use, and gives me perfectly round tortillas with the right thickness every time.Great for corn or flour dough, and it feels built to last. Total win for homemade tortilla lovers.The weight helps flatten evenly without much force, and the tortillas come out perfectly round every time. A must-have tool for anyone serious about homemade tortillas!

I'm giving this Cast Iron Tortilla Press 4 stars because it does exactly what it's supposed to do: it presses perfect tortillas! The cast iron construction is undeniably robust. You can tell this thing is built to last and will hold up to years of use. I've been making consistently round and evenly pressed tortillas since I got it. The resulting tortillas cook up beautifully on my comal.However, and this is a big HOWEVER, be prepared for some serious heft! This press is super heavy. Like, surprisingly heavy. It's definitely not something you want to drop on your foot. While the weight contributes to its effectiveness in pressing, it also makes it a bit cumbersome to store and maneuver. If you have limited wrist strength, you might want to consider a lighter option, or enlist a helper!Also, I’d recommend investing in some parchment paper or plastic pressing sheets. It really helps prevent the dough from sticking and makes cleanup a breeze. I didn't do that at first and learned my lesson the hard way!Overall, I'm happy with my purchase. The quality of the tortillas is worth the extra effort. Just be aware of the weight before you buy. It’s a solid, well-made product that will last a lifetime, but it’s definitely a workout tool as much as a kitchen appliance!

Havnt actually need it yet but I can already tell this is a quality made press. Its my first one and im super excited to use it! Not only can it be used for tortillas (my hubby is happy about that) BUT also for tostones! Also appreciate that the seller is a small, family owned business.

This is a very sturdy, heavy iron tortilla press which work well to create very flat and round tortillas.My only complaint is that the pin holding on the arm often slides out after a few uses. I recommend buying round parchment papers so the tortillas don’t stick to the press.

This was a good purchase. We have made so many yummy tortillas ok this and the cleaning process is so easy i love this. Such a good buy if you love love love tacos like me and the family.

I use it to press whole wheat tortillas. I know I can roll them out, but it's honestly easier to just press it. I can get my 3 y.o. to help me make tortillas. I put the dough between sheets of parchment paper. She can press them and flip over the parchment paper. I don't think I'd be able to teach her to roll out a tortilla with a rolling pin, and even if I did, she wouldn't be able to do it in the same amount of time, and in such a nice circular form. I've used it for other whole wheat flatbreads as well. I used it to press out my yeasted naan dough.
