Great Gadget!,

This review is from: KitchenAid Cookie Press with 16 Discs, Blue (Kitchen)
I received my cookie press today, and I found it very easy to use. You choose the shape you want the cookies to be in, fill the press with dough, and the press puts out jest the right amount of dough with one click of the leaver. I also enjoy the feature of having a storage container for the disks and attaches to the cookie press, defiantly a nice way of keeping all the peaces together. I was slightly disappointed that they didn't provide any cookie dough recipes for the press, but I was able to find several recipes online fairly easily. All in all I'm very pleased with my purchase. This is one great gadget.

This review is from: KitchenAid Cookie Press with 16 Discs, Red (Kitchen)
I received this press two nights ago and immediately made a batch of spritz cookies...they were the easiest, least frustrating spritz I have ever made!! This cookie press works absolutely perfectly. It is made entirely of plastic with a notched metal shaft. Each press of the lever pushes the "press" down another notch, dispersing the precise amount of dough needed per cookie. Clean-up is easy with warm soapy water. It does not come with a recipe, but I used the Butter Snow Flakes from Allrecipes, and the dough was the perfect consistancy. Again, wonderful cookie press. Skip the Wiltons, the metal one and especially the battery-operated one, and get this instead. You won't regret it!!
Just to comment on another review - you cannot use parchment paper or spray your pan with cooking spray!! The dough will NOT stick, and the press will not function properly (no cookie press will)! I used heavy non-stick coated pans - the dough stuck when pressed and the finished...Read more

Still learning -- but fun,

I wanted to make some cookies with my 3-year old that were tasty, pretty and easy, so I bought this press. I should start by saying that I do not know how to use a cookie press, nor am I very good at making cookies in general. I read all the reviews, and the only drawback to this one I could see was that it had no recipes -- so I tried it.
That is only the drawback! I found a recipe online and tried out the press. Worked just fine, first try for the more simple designs (hearts, ribbons and butterflies). The amount comes out fine and the thing is easy to use.
The machine itself is nice. The built-in storage container for the discs is cool, and after 3 (maybe 4 batches) of cookies, everything is still working just fine. Clean up is simple.
I like it.
