Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This is a great product, but I just can't recommend buying it here.
I recently purchased this exact sushi press from a local Japanese market (Mitsuwa). This store chain known for having great selection of imported Asian foods and products, NOT for good prices. It was $4.99 there. That's why I'm just baffled that these sellers have the nerve to sell this item for $6.00-$7.00 PLUS $5.50-$7.00 for shipping. You'll end up spending about $12-$14 for a plastic mold (this particular one was made in Taiwan, by the way).
Again, it is a great product that works EXACTLY as advertised - It really makes PERFECT spam musubis. But at least check out your local Asian/Japanese store first to see if they have any available. You have to go there for seaweed anyways, don't you? You might even be able to find yours for cheaper than $5. But if you have absolutely no resources available in your area and you've been dying to make your own musubis, by all means - order this product here.
I'm not against the idea of a seller making a profit, but you have to know that they got this sushi press for maybe a dollar, and their actual shipping cost is another couple bucks at most. So charging $12 or more for this product is just unreasonable. It always bugs me when sellers pad the shipping costs in an attempt to hide how much more money they're charging you. Ordering items on Amazon is always going to be a balancing between convenience and price. Just be aware that the TOTAL price here is quite high.
*UPDATE* It seems more recent sellers have begun lowering their prices and shipping charges (Due to my complaining maybe? I swear, they were $6.99 + $6.50 shipping before). While the total cost is still far from cheap, it's nice to see things heading the right direction.
