Victoria Cast Iron Tortilla Press, Roti Maker and Tortilladora, Pataconera Seasoned with Flaxseed Oil, Made in Colombia, Traditional Style, Black, 8-Inch

This is a fantastic addition to our kitchen! It is heavy duty and makes the perfect shaped and thickness corn or flour tortillas. It's super easy to use and clean. I purchased the round parchment paper which of the must have for easy handling of the tortillas and to keep the press clean. I absolutely love this tortilla press and to be able to make homemade tortillas is wonderful!

This is an excellent tortilla press. I had a heavy, cast aluminum one many years ago and it worked great but somehow ended up getting lost in our many moves and I never replaced it. Over the last year or so, I've been looking at various types of presses from different brands. The aluminum ones I have seen are nothing like my original one, so I decided to focus on the wooden and cast iron versions. I have a lot of cast iron cookware and I use it all of the time -- I find it incredibly easy to use and very durable. So when this 8" version became available, I was very interested. I chose this one over the pricer HD version in the same size, and this one is definitely sturdy enough for my use. Some reviews mention a handle that is plastic rather than cast iron, but the press I received is 100% cast iron and very well made. My favorite brand of cast iron (the iconic USA manufacturer) doesn't make a tortilla press and I have noticed that some imported cast iron cookware is not as heavy and often has unfinished areas and large pores, but this brand is of very high quality. I already have a dutch oven made by Victoria (imported from Colombia) so I was sure this would also be top-notch. And it is. Since it is cast iron, it will need a bit of extra care to prevent rusting so if you are not familiar with seasoning cast iron, be sure to do a bit of research before ordering. The press is heavy, smooth and pre-seasoned and turns out perfect medium-sized corn tortillas (I roll flour tortillas) that are then cooked on a comal/griddle on the stove top. The lettering is very crisply rendered. There is a smaller 6 1/2" as well as a larger 10" version, but this 8" model is just the right size for my family. The hinge pins and especially the cotter pins don't seem particularly robust, but they are holding up well so far + they can easily be replaced if needed -- they are inexpensive and readily available at a hardware store. I think this tortilla press is well worth the modest cost.

This is a very good tortilla press. Victoria makes quality cast iron products. You cannot go wrong with this one. Its a little heavy in weight, but it is heavy duty cast iron. When pressing tortillas, it works great. Being cast iron, it is better than the other cast aluminum ones. You can even season it if needed like other cast iron cookware. You will pay a bit more for this one, but it will likely never break [if you take care of your things]. Don't buy cheap, buy to last. Also, you can leave it to one of you children when you're done.

This is a heavy duty press. It's pretty solidly built. It came with an extra pin for the lever part which makes me wonder if it's a known weakness. The surfaces of the press are a little rough which surprised me a little, but it's not really a problem if you line them with plastic or cooking paper as they suggest. My biggest issue is the hinge side is a fixed distance and is on the thin side, so my tortillas come out thicker in the front and very thin in the back. If I press it harder to make it more even, of course it gets even thinner in the back and the tortilla gets too thin. It's not a very big problem, but it would be nice if there was a way to change that. The good points are that it's solid and seems strong, and does not take too much pressure to use. It makes consistent tortillas so practice will improve them since variability is low. I do recommend it but you can judge for yourself if those problems are important.

I love this tortilla press! There was a bit of a learning curve figuring out how to prevent the dough from sticking to the parchment, but once I found a method that worked, it became very easy to use. I place the tortilla directly on the pan with the parchment and cook it for a few seconds on each side, and it releases without any issues. I used it to make whole wheat pumpkin tortillas for my toddler, and I won’t be going back to rolling them by hand. I have sensitive wrists and hands, so using a rolling pin for long periods can be uncomfortable. This press helps reduce strain and makes it easy to get tortillas as thin as I want with very little effort. I’m also happy I chose the 8-inch size instead of the 10-inch. For me, the larger size would have been harder to handle, while the 8-inch feels just right. The press is heavy, sturdy, and feels very well made. I think it’s worth the price, and I’m hoping it lasts long enough for my daughter to enjoy using it in her own kitchen one day.

Easy to assemble. Easy to use. I made sweet potato wraps with it today (not knowing if using different ingredients/recipe would actually work) but it works perfectly! I can’t wait to make more!

I've had this tortilla press for two years now and use it regularly- I love it!! High quality, and the perfect weight to do the job. I press the tortillas between two sheets of parchment paper, so I never even need to clean the press. Love it.

Looked like a well made press. Unfortunately I bought it as a gift and found the recipients already had one! I returned this item.

Hochwertige Tortilla-Presse aus schwerem Gusseisen. Lohnt sich auf jeden Fall, ein bisschen mehr zu investieren, diese Presse ist perfekt und hält bei richtiger Pflege bestimmt ewig.

I will own this for a long time. It is easy to use and works well.

Using it for about 7 months. Make rotis and also aloo pooris ( potatoes stuffed parathas) as seen in the video. Atta dough needs to be soft. All are rolled thin and evenly. Happy with it. We did line it with BBQ liner sheet to make it easier to clean and even less sticky.

Does press all areas of tortilla properly there is huge difference in some regions, feel like I can do better with hands.
