Etcokei Large Flower Press Kit for Adults & Kids, Microwave Flower Pressing Kit 9" x 9", Quickly Flowers Press for Plant DIY Arts, Resin Crafts, Scrapbooking, Nail Craft, Great Gift for Lovers

I used this to press my friend’s wedding bouquet so I could frame it. It was super easy to use and much faster than conventional drying. Works perfectly! I could have gotten a size bigger as I had monstera leaves that I needed to do, but it was the perfect size for all of the flowers.

I was a bit skeptical at first, but this flower press works very well! The original colors of the flowers stay and the leaves stay bright green. I was able to dry the flowers from a memorial service and give a framed arrangement to everyone in the family. (I bought the brass & glass pressed flower hanging frames from Amazon--no, this isn't an advertisement!.) In the past, I had dried flowers in a traditional flower press which took weeks and the colors didn't remain. I would wholeheartedly recommend this Ectokei Large Flower Press.

It was delivered last night, too late to start experimenting. Today I started using it and am delighted with the results. Following the directions included, I SLIGHTLY moistened the felt pads. The first few flowers were a bit difficult to release from the cotton cloth so I added a sheet of parchment paper on either side of the flowers (then the cotton cloth, then the felt pads, then the plastic outer pieces). An inexpensive bouquet from WalMart was perfect to start practicing on. I plan on decorating food with flowers so will be using organic edible flowers then. But am getting the hang of it pretty quick now. Look for videos on google.

This worked really well. Spraying the wool pads just a little if it's been a while since using is a good idea. I decided to try this with leaves and was very pleased with the results. Next step is to spray the leaves with acrylic to seal them a little. The leaves are very fragile so handle them carefully.My only issue is that the plastic outer plates warped and I'm not certain why. It still works, but hopefully they don't continue or they'll end up twisted.

I was very nervous using this product because for one I’ve never pressed flowers before.It’s a little on the small side however due to the temperature requirements I don’t think it could be larger or the flowers may burn. It comes all put together in the order you will use it. I followed the directions exactly and my flowers turned out perfect!! You just have to make sure to put the same size flowers or greenery at the same time because the temperatures do vary. I would recommend this product to anyone even if you’re a beginner!

I used this for half a day and had great results. I was a little annoyed that it would warp with use, but whatever. Then I tried a ranunculus from my wedding bouquet and well.. I wish I could explain. Don’t set your house on fire.

The flowers & leaves pressed are being used for crafts made by ladies between the age of 79 & 91.They love being able to chose which plants to use the same day as their day of crafts.Flowers retain most of their color & only have a small amount of shrinkage, making their designs absolutely beautiful. Thank you.

I only got to use this to dry out 2 flowers, and it started warping. I wanted to like this...and it did work to dry the flowers out. But I need this to last longer than 2 uses...and the whole point is to make them flat so warped pieces won't work. Its unfortunate. Also, taking the elastic straps on and off every 30-60 seconds is annoying. The brand version of this has clips and now I see why. Save you're time, not money...buy the original more expensive version.
