This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?

5) This is not a support community.

It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions. If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email [email protected]. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.

For me, there were several dollar store trinkets that already broke, and one toy for my kids that was a huge sparkly styrofoam mess waiting to happen, so I threw it out rather than curse anyone else with it.

I got an Oxo Good Grips one for my Christmas this year and I think it's the last press I'll ever need

Pampered Chef also makes a very nice one. Usually pampered chef is terribly overpriced but they do have a few high quality gems in the catalog.

Yeah I saw those but they were stupidly overpriced like every they do . The Oxo ones were about €30, amazing price for a BIFL item

I have this one as well. I like how it's one piece, unlike some cheaper ones

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (1 children)

It's not one piece. It looks like one piece but the rubber handles eventually separate. The past couple of years I have used it without the rubber handle covers.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (1 children)

It will last about 5 years. I have one. The rubber handles fall off and the chrome plating peels.

It does say not to put them in a dishwasher or that'll happen
