Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank

I think part of the appeal of this over cast iron (aside from the weight) is the ease of cleaning. Some folks just want to throw a stainless steel utensil in the dishwasher and not deal with cast iron clean-up.

Had one of these for years. Great for smash burgers, just heavy enough to hold bacon down. Lightweight and slim to throw around. Easy to clean.

Try it before you knock it.

Looks large, but not heavy enough. The riveted handle looks sketchy too. I'll pass

eh, easier to smash straight down with this one vs. a wide burger spatula

I don't understand why people want to press out all the juices. That's what makes a burger taste good.
Smashing is done on a griddle or cast iron skillet, not a grill with slots where the liquid smokes off. You are cooking your burger in it instead of letting it burn away. Since burger meat typically has a high fat content you're technically frying your meat in beef tallow. Most people grill cold burgers instead of letting them settle so the inside medium rare part is barely warmed up and kind of disgusting or the outside is overcooked. It's hard to mess up a smash burger

The weight is really about thermal density - cast iron holds more heat each cooks both sides faster (stating the obvious in case it isn't - you pre-heat the grill press on your surface to get both the pan and the press hot before your throw down your meat).

Something this thin is only smashing down the patty, it's not creating a seared crust on the top. I agree with the other comment that a similarly priced cast iron option is a better addition to your kitchen

I was going to recommend this one for 2 burgers but the price has quadrupled: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B005TGY0ME.

It's got good weight too for steak, etc. Not to smash, but to sear after sous vide.

I use it with a cast iron pan as well, which has doubled in cost: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0000CF66W

No one talking about the part where the heat is going to brand your hand... I have cast iron ones with wooden handles. Those things get HOT without an insulated handle.
