I did notice that it is a little smaller than the old screw gun, and the cookies are smaller. My first batch looked miniature in comparison to the old ones, but they came out great. Averaged just under 2" across per cookie. With the smaller size cookie, I found the included recipes to be way off on yield and cooking time. The included recipe indicated it would yield 48 cookies, with a baking time of 10-12 min at 375 degrees. My results, with their recipe, yielded 96 cookies (double their stated amount), and I found that they would burn if baked more than 7 minutes at 375 (the recipe lists 10-12 minutes which is charcoal city). And yes, my oven is calibrated. I believe this is partially due to the smaller size cookie the press clicks out.
Keeping in mind to expect a lot of smaller cookies, baking them for about half the stated time, the results are excellent. Make sure the dough is of the right consistency. If it is too thick, requiring a strongman grip to squeeze the trigger, you'll probabbly blow the press apart.
The press consists of the trigger/plunger assembly, the clear plastic tube that holds the dough, and the end cap that holds the cookie pattern disk. The mechanics of the press (the handle, springs, plunger rod, and release button) are all made of metal, while the rest of the press is plastic. The cookie pattern discs are made of aluminum and include a wide variety of shapes and styles. While all the important parts are made of metal, the plastics used in the rest of the press are very cheap feeling, and indeed the metal trigger kept cutting into the plastic used for the handle when I would press out cookies, breaking some of the plastic handle off. Thankfully when the press is assembled and used it feels fairly sturdy in the hand.
Using the press is very simple. You simply screw the plastic dough tube to the trigger assembly, press the button on top of the trigger to pull back the plunger, insert some dough, then pick a cookie disk and screw it onto the other end of the dough tube. Once assembled and loaded you pull the trigger until the dough is compacted and starts to come out of the disk. One pull of the trigger clicks the plunger forward the perfect amount to make one cookie. It works very well and I used many shapes, and only had a problem with one of them not releasing the cookies perfectly.
The press itself is dishwasher safe. I've run it through the machine a few times and it came out clean and without any issues. The cookie pattern disks should be hand washed, however.
I tried the recipe that is included with the press and the cookies came out perfectly shaped and delicious. They are fairly small and thin so you get lots of cookies from each batch.
All in all... a fun way to make tasty, perfect cookies.
At first, I couldn't get this to work because the dough wouldn't stick to my pans or parchment paper. I used both, despite warnings and instructions, from various sources, not to (because I hate trying to wash baked-on cookies on cookie sheets that are too big for my sink -- water always gets everywhere!).
Then I tried them on the backside of one of the sheets, which was not coated with non-stick material. It worked! And it worked well. The press dispensed just the right amount of dough for a cookie "serving size". The shapes looked like what the disc would make them look like. They didn't always retain their shapes once baked, but that's more an issue with the dough than with the press.
Cleanup was simple because the whole thing comes apart. I handwashed everything by putting the pieces in the big bowl I used to mix up the dough, then a squirt of dishwashing soap, filled the bowl with very warm water, and sponge-washed each piece.
1. Kichon Cookie Press Kit with Silicone Baking Mat - 5/10 - A lot of dough left inside the tube, poor constructed piston, not stainless steel.
2. Wilton Comfort Grip Cookie Press - 9/10 - Nice grip and a piston, the see-through cylinder.
3. NuVita Cookie Press Set - 1/10 - The tube is very small, the plastic holding the template pops off.
4. Kuhn Rikon Clear Cookie Press - 6/10 - The clear tube, but as for me it is cheaply made.
5. Westmark Germany Multipurpose Stainless Steel Cookie Press and Piping Gun Decorating Kit with Recipes - 4/10 - looks and feels the same as #4, but have a metal tube. A lot of dough left inside the press under the template.
6. OXO Good Grips Cookie Press with Stainless Steel Disks and Storage Case - 8/10 - Nice grip and a piston, the see-through cylinder. Very well made. I don't know why but the butterfly and the flower were almost impossible to press out nicely.

I was hesitant to buy a cookie press, as I remember my mother always complaining about hers, but...I also really loved the cookies she used to bake at Christmas...and then refused to bake because she hated her cookie press...(Hers was a copper screw style press). I knocked out dozens of cookies easily, quickly, and enjoyably with ZERO problems. I loved it. ...and my mother was by today to visit....and now has my cookie press ;)
It arrives neatly boxed and you could use the box for storage. Very little assembly required and it isn't rocket science to operate it. The enclosed information leaflet is straight forward and I followed their instructions to the letter - even though I was convinced that using a non-stick baking sheet was going to result in disaster. Out of interest I used a couple of old sheets which I think had been non-stick once upon a time but are now looking pretty battered. I found that if I gave the cookies just a couple of minutes to cool before taking them off the sheet with a pallet knife they popped off perfectly - a couple cracked but they still tasted good ;-).
Four recipes are included and I used the vanilla cookie one. Makes a fairly stiff dough but it feeds through the press with ease. Produces masses of cookies; recipe says 4 dozen but I made in excess of 50 with just a little dough left which my son was happy to eat straight from the bowl! The cookies are super quick to 'press out' and all the shapes I tried worked a treat. You get a good range of discs to shape the cookies (with seasonal Christmas and Halloween options) and it's easy to swap discs part way through. Just keep a close eye on them while cooking as they can go from golden to burnt in the blink of an eye!!
Clean up seems quite straight forward - discs need to be hand washed or apparently they'll discolour; the rest can go in the top tray of your dishwasher.
End product looked and tasted very professional. I'm planning to make loads for our school Christmas fair to sell in little cellophane bags and will be making batches to take as hostess gifts when out visiting - will pop them in an inexpensive glass jar with a bit of gingham ribbon round the lid. Friends are sure to think I've gone to a lot of time and trouble (if only they knew!!).
市販のクッキーみたいに、ぷっくりと立体的なクッキーはどうしたら作れるのかいつも不思議でした。
これがあれば、台所を粉まるけに汚すこともなく、面倒な伸ばしや型取りの手間もいらずで、
素晴らしい!もっと早く知れば良かったです…
