Review: Zooziis Pillow Press

I have had this pillow press less than 24 hours, but I wanted to give a review on the product from a non-bias party.

Constructions: Heavy brass plates with pinpoint alignment. Sturdy wooden handle wrapped in wire. It has a 'Z' on the corners for alignment purposes so you never have to guess if you have it aligned.

Ease of use: I have to admit I wanted to press perfectly the first time. That didn't happen. So I went to Zooziis.com and read the directions for use. That helped some. I was able on the sixth try to get a perfect pillow! Yeah. Today I adapted my version of the instructions and I have had perfect pillows ever since. So ease of use is a big A+.

Value: With so many presses on the market recently I thought this was an excellent value. Without spending over $100 I am able to test a press to see if I like how they work. I also received $5 off my next purchase with Zoozii. Double yeah. I can say that with my success on this tool that I am definitely to take the plunge on more presses. The next one will probably be the Zooziis Diamond press.

Size: I love the size of the pillows this press produces. They are quite a bit larger than I first suspected that gives me a great medium size bead. I can see lovely bracelets, earrings, and necklaces made from the beads. The beads are larger than anticipated.

If you want to know more about ordering, please visit my website. I have a link directly to Zooziis set up on my home page. I am not being reimbursed or given any discounts for listing it on my page. I think it's a great tool and I was given permission to add it to my home page.

I just got mine today - it's been sitting in my mailbox all weekend... am going to go play with it now! (And it's smaller than I thought it was going to be, not larger. I guess I make larger beads compared to a lot of beadmakers - I'm always suprised when I get little beads off of ebay - I guess I should pay more attention to the mm...)

Wow. I love it, and yet after perusing both her and Corina's ever-expanding selection of bead presses, I think I am Officially Burned Out on bead presses.

I can happily say this is the first one I've owned. I truly tried not to get caught up in the presses, but it was inevitable. I'm glad I hung on and waited for the pillow press. I'm sick of seeing the CBS everywhere.

The only press that I may even consider right now is the Zoozii, because of the cost, and because that shape is nearly impossible to do without the tool. The other presses coming out right now (bicones, cubes, etc.) are of shapes a lot of people can do after practice. Especially the round tabs and cubes. You just need parallel mashers for those. I must admit that if they came out with a flower or star shape, I might have to buy it. :) I did buy leaf mashers recently, and they are way huge!! Haven't used them yet, though.

The lentils are still my favorite shape, but I have a hard time with "too many choices", LOL! You should have seen me at the store the day they came out with "whey style" butter. I was standing in front of the butter case looking at all the different kinds of butter, and my head just about exploded. I actually left without buying any butter at all!

I might just go for the pillow press. Moxley needs to find me a birthday present he can afford, and the CBS, which I want, is out of his league right now. So's the Drew Fritts Infinite Rim Marble Mold, which I lust after with the hopeless desperation of a 13-year old in love with Michelle Pfeiffer.

Kalera, I profess my love to you. :) You crack me up!! I totally get what you mean about the too many choices thing. It's mind-bending. And the Michelle Pfeiffer thing? ROFLMAO!!!

Im with you on the choices. I need a store that sells 'shampoo', not one that offers every choice and option anyone could possibly think of to improve shampoo. Diana

Kalera, Drew's mold is one of the smartest purchases I've made. It's wonderful!
