Premium Small Multicolor Burger Press for Perfect Homemade Patties - Ideal for BBQ, Picnics & Backyard Cookouts

I want to mention that this is the first time I have used this product, so I can't really say much about how durable it will be over time (I will definitely update this review if it falls apart in the next several of months). It is made of plastic, but so is the Big Green Egg version that I also own that actually cost me more money than the Stufz.Before I got started, I popped it into the dishwasher. Once I had cleaned Stufz, I shredded some swiss cheese and watched a Youtube video for a demonstration. I did not even bother reading the instructions, but I had used the Big Green Egg version, so I had a pretty good idea how to use it.My main issue with stuffing a burger myself and using the BGE burger press was that I rarely got a proper seal on the burger. BGE makes a separate basket you can cook the burgers in that probably helps hold them together (that I don't own), but I mainly try to seal them together by crimping the sides of the burgers since they would not hold together on their own. I still had cheese dripping out the sides and occasionally the burgers would split in half when I was cooking them on the grill.For me, the Stufz was actually less messy than the BGE press. The BGE press requires you to turn over the side that pushes in the bottom half of the burger and then use the other side as the press for pushing them together. The Stufz, on the other hand, uses one side for pressing in the bottom and for adding the top without the need of flipping it over and using the messy side for a press. For me, this was a lot less messy.Personally, I am willing to make a small mess at the sacrifice of good food, so that wasn't why I tried the Stufz. I bought it because my stuffed burgers were splitting apart at the seam. I made my first three burgers today with the Stufz and they all remained intact.One burger is very large (they are large with the BGE press, too) so that should be kept in mind. However, for me, the product did exactly what I needed. That is why I gave it five stars...no, I don't work for this company.
