KAYCROWN 3.25 Inch Empanada Press, Stainless Steel Dumpling Maker Dough Cutter Dumpling Mold for Empanada, Dumpling, Ravioli, Pierogi, Turnovers, Calzone (S: 3 1/4 inch)

Update:the 3.75” is still a little large for premade gyoza wrappers. They do fit but only just and that makes it fiddly to get them formed without any gaps. When you’re powering through making a hundred at a time fiddling around getting them right is a pita. I now think 3.25” to 3.5” is the perfect size for both wonton wrappers and premade gyoza wrappers and I have a 3-piece set coming now that includes a 3.25” one. I don’t understand why the perfect size range for premade wrappers is so hard to find. I have now made 5 orders of these things trying to get one that works easily with premade wrappers. For the time being I’m still using the 3” with wonton wrappers, we’ll see about the next one.Original:I’m talking gyoza here, not dumplings and not empanada’s.The common size press/crimpers are 3” 3.75” and 4”.The 4 is too big, the 3 is too small and a 3.75 I think will be juuuust right, it’s in the mail to me now.Others complain these are flimsy, which is true, but they do work and they’re much better made than most of the others with the closed loop handles. They give a little when you really push them to get a solid crimp and I haven’t used them enough to actually break one. Keep the crimper DRY and it won’t stick to the dough.I only use premade gyoza wrappers and in a pinch 4” wonton wrappers which are thinner. The savings of making your own wrappers over buying them is dwarfed in my mind by the giant pita you have to go through to knead and sheet the dough, not to mention the equipment expense.

Love this little fella. Works like a char.

I bought 4 of these for making perogie. They are great quality and the perfect size. The only problem was when we used the bottoms for cutting the circles of dough. Obviously, a sharp cutter makes for a nice cut, and these are not sharp. I found pushing down and giving it a little twist worked.

This is probably easy to use and easy to clean but it didn’t seem sturdy and was too small for what I wanted.

The media could not be loaded. This is a great dough press! I know it's for empanadas but I used it to make handheld fruit pies! It worked perfectly. I added a video for reference.

I used to have one and it worked great it looked the same but it sure was better. This product is not for the nice soft dough that I use for making pierogies. The way it’s made on the bottom which you should be able to use to cut exact fitting circle for the top part where you seal them. When you try to cut the circle it rips the dough so to be able to use the sealing part you would need another tool to cut the circle out I would find something else if you had idea of two in one

Buen producto

I wasn’t impressed at all with this. It’s cheap plastic. I used Pam spray on it and everything still sticks to it.
