Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Lodge Logic Pre-Seasoned Rectangular Cast-Iron Grill Press

Customer Review: Let The Press Hold Itself!
Summary: 5 Stars

There is very little I can say that is bad about this press, but I will get it out of the way.

- Assembly is not quite the easiest for people with non-working hands. I have arthritis in my hands and assembly was a bit of a tough nut to crack, especially with the "make it stand on edge" style suggested by the manufacturer. Best bet is to let each edge hang over the side of a counter, hand twist the nut onto the bolt, then use the screwdriver and wrench to tighten.

- I understand the nuts included for this item, but man do I miss the days of circular open topped nuts. The ones that come with it are a bit hard to get set correctly without feeling like you are going to strip the inside of the nut or the top of the bolt.

That is all the bad. Seriously, only two things bad about this item and both are about the assembly where it concerns those without perfect working hands. Otherwise this item is great. It is pre-seasoned but the instructions even state to add a bit of spray-on vegetable oil to the item prior to cooking and after each wash/scrub which is a good idea. Being seasoned or even pre-seasoned does not mean to let an item collect fats for life and never wash it.

The weight of the item is nice but may be a bit much for those wanting to make grilled cheese with white bread as it will flatten those sandwiches, especially if you butter the bread like I do. If you like your grilled cheese sandwiches flat as can be then no worries as this is your savior. I would definitely not use this on anything that was not thick enough to support the weight if I wanted some semblance outside of a pancake. That said it is perfect for bacon, that wonderful "add it to everything except mayo because Baconaisse is disgusting" food, as it completely flattens the item. There are no grooves on the bottom of this press which is a boon not a bane. Grooves leave areas for food items to raise up instead of remaining flat, whereas with this press everything under it will remain flat.

Definitely the press to buy and use over and again. Buy multiples if you are going to be cooking for amounts above four on a grill otherwise you will be spending more time moving it from item to item instead of spending time with friends and family.
