How thick are the burgers? Previous question got four answers--two 1/2 inch and two 1 inch. Which is it? More important, how many lbs?

You can do up to 3/4" x 4-1/4". That is, three quarters of an inch by four inches and one quarter. Weight? IDK. You can do thinner if you want.Side comment, I think I paid $5 for mine and once I received it it seemed a little bit a little too much. Its not a robust item, I can see it breaking after couple dozen patties or less... just FYI.

I weigh out quarter pound meatballs then put into press they come out about 3/8 to 1/2" thick

It depends on how much meat you put in. The most this will handle is 1/2 lb of meat which makes about 3/4 of an inch. If you only put 1/4 lb of meat, they're thinner. I measure out what I want in weight and then put the ball on wax paper and press it with this press. It comes out perfect every time. If I don't feel like measuring, I just trim the excess away from the press. It comes apart and is easy to clean, unlike the expensive metal one I have. The trick is to take the handle cap off, just by pulling. Then there are 3 parts, which I just rub a little dawn dishwashing liquid on, rinse, drop in the dish drainer, and I'm done. I use this about 3 times a week. Sometimes I'll make 10 burgers, separate with a sheet of wax paper, put in my vacuum sealer and freeze a stack. But it's so easy, I generally make them to order. Mix in some teriyaki marinade or lemon pepper and you're doing even better! Hope that helps. Bleach

I just measured the depth of mine and it is 7/8." 1/2 lb of meat seems pretty hefty, I usually do 1/3 lb patties and they are pretty thick. Any more meat than that and your patties will almost look like balls when they're done cooking, due to the shrinkage. I usually flatten mine out after I remove from the press, so that they will fit the bun better.I've also written a review where I describe my process, which prevents the press from coming into contact with the meat.

The diameter of the patty is 4 1/2" You can make them any thickness you would like,From thin to about an inch and a half. At that point you press them out to make a bigger patty. I use mine all the time. Love it.

If you truly love to grill meat, like thick steaks, you will honestly love this thick heavy duty grill. I'd say it.'s about 3/8" thick. Awesome grill marks every time. You can throw away that cheap thin wire grill that comes standard with a Weber. Easy to clean too. Extremely highly rated if you like those restaurant-style grill marks.

No! I measured it... 1/2 inch, but I agree that an inch would be too thick.

Estimating i would say the patty is aprroximately 5 inches in diameter give or take and depending how much ground meat you put in the press will depend on the thickness. Mine were about 1/2 inch or so thick. You will not go wrong with this patty maker though. By far one of the best and cheapest kitchen gadgets i have purchased.

4mm is correct. the 1inch is probably for shipping concerns or because the form they were using only allowed inches and the smallest being 1" The product is actually only 4mm in thickness.

I would say 2 1/2". Excellent product. Been using for cooking and transporting food for years. Easily stackable in the refrigerator.

Thickness is less than 2 inches, say about 1-1/2 inch, but it was a gift so I don't have it readily available to measure now.

It really depends on how much meat you use. You'll find the right amount after making a couple of them. The patties end up being about 1/2" thick... pretty much ideal to freeze and save. It's a very simple device, easy to clean and handy to have.

after pressing, the hamburger is 3 1/2" in diameter. It's a really good size for the bun. We hope this will help you. It is our 2nd press. I had to buy my college son his own press when he moved into a house off-campus with several classmates. He loves it!

If it's important to you to know the weight why not buy a pound of burger and test the machine? You can add more or take some out to get the weight you want. For instance, if you make 4 patties then you know they are quarter pounders. Figure it out and the next time you can guess and get pretty close. By the way, have you ever tried bacon burgers? Grind about 1/3 of bacon and 2/3 beef together.

not too thick...maybe 1/8" thickest: it has a couple of adjustments for thickness. The thinnest is VERY thin.

With the press and ring you can make the burgers as thick or thin as you want. The storage units are good for up to a half inch.

Reference: Cuisinart CSBP-100 3-in-1 Stuffed Burger Press by Cuisinart sizes - My Son-in-Law and Son have the units, however if I remember correctly the larger burger comes out about 3 1/2" to 4" and the sliders are about 2 1/2 to 3". -Perfect sizes for us- We quickly learned that the meat makes all the difference in the cooked size. I would suggest that you purchase small packages of different grades of meat from your store or from more than one store and the next hamburger fest make several of the same size burgers with the same seasoning and test them for cooked size, texture, and taste.
