Title: Broke on First Use!
Product review: After going thru 2 other cheaper cookie presses in about 7 years, I decided to splurge and get the one that was supposed to be a "professional" version. It certainly looked and felt sturdier, so I was optimistic, however the very first time I tried to use it, it broke. Although, most of the construction is metal (steel?) there ARE plastic pieces on it, and the main piece that pushes (ratches) the dough thru the cylinder is plastic - it cracked after only a single tray of cookies. The dough was NOT overly stiff, so there was no reason it should have cracked. I had to get my mother's 30+ year old cookie press (made of ALL metal) to finish the batch. It handled the job with no problem. I wish they made them like they used to.
