BPA Free -- Smaller Size

Just started using tofu and recipes called for pressing water out. I didn’t want to use books/weights and the mess. This is perfect, simple, efficient and easy to use. Now I’m encouraged to use tofu more often.

Works well. Sturdy. Great price.

The press works great but you need some serious muscle to get the clamps closed if straining an extra firm block. Otherwise the price was fair and it's easy to clean.

This is a great little invention. If you love tofu like I do, you will want to have this in your home. I use it daily. Before this I was using paper towels and let me tell you I was going through those expensive paper towels quite rapidly, a new roll daily. With this I am saving on the paper towels alone. In no time it pays for itself. The nicest thing is that I can put my tofu in it, and 20 Minutes later it's drained of water. The design is such that it can be hard to use unless you have the strength to hold and push it down while you attach the clips on the side, not a complaint but an observation. It seems durable enough to last me a very long time. I have also found that the smaller one which I accidentally purchased handles the 16oz tofu with no problem at all. The pictures on the site show what it does to the water and the tofu separating them completely. Lastly, I would just like to mention how easy this press is to clean.

Works exactly as promised. I think it will last longer than those with bands. This is a secure closure and easy to operate

EDIT (half year later) -- I bought a second one a few months back, so I can press two blocks at the same time as I'm rushing to prepare dinner. Each one presses a surprising amount of amount of water from the tofu. I've used these presses quite a bit. They seem pretty sturdy. Some tofu blocks are taller than others. The press can be difficult to latch with the tallest ones. Others can latch more easily. Water pours out of all of them. I still hand-wash them, but I'm no longer sure if the original warping was from the dishwasher, or the way it came. Original review -- Hand wash only. The plastic warped inward the first time I put it in the dishwasher, on the top rack. Makes it a little harder to fit together. As far as I could tell, there as no warning against putting it in the dishwasher. It is very difficult to latch. I had to put it on a chair, and kneel on it. Once you get it latched, it presses the tofu well. It's shaped just right for the tofu that comes in a tub -- 14oz or 1 pound. It's easy to pour out the water pressed out of the tofu.

I saw so many reviews of this that were just ridiculous. It works great. You can't use Costco jumbo sized tofu in this press. It's perfect for regular market sized tofu which comes in 12-14.5oz sizes. Simple to assemble and clean and drains 90% of the tofu water withing an hour. I have been making some seriously delicious tofu with so much less clean up. No more cutting boards and cans or paper towel messes.

I've only used it once, but I'm quite pleased. It's well made and worked perfectly. I believe I read a review where someone complained that it was difficult to clamp down once you put in the tofu. I didn't find it particularly difficult with a piece of extra firm tofu that filled the container. I just pressed one side then the other. It appears well made like a kitchen tool that hangs around for years

è ben fatto. abbastanza grande. fa il suo dovere quindi sono soddisfatta

Good product, but the price is too high. Gets the job done. Easy to clean. Can fit only a thin block of tofu.

The press is a good size and the block well enough, but the compression strength on the spring just didn't apply enough pressure on the tofu block to squeeze out much moisture at all. A stack of cook books with the tofu wrapped in a tea towel is still more effective, just not as practical.

Still have the product and it still works great, I would buy another one if I needed to.

Very happy with this so far - it seems well built, fits large blocks of tofu, is easy to keep clean, and does a great job of pressing the water out of tofu. A simple design that's unlikely to break. What more do you need?
