We've only used this tenderizer a handful of times, but wow, this thing is awesome! We used to have a tenderizer/flatner in one but the tines were never really quite long enough to really get into the meat so we opted to use a fork for far too long. This tenderizer really gets into the meat and goes all the way through those thicker cuts. The spring action works well and it's easy to hand wash.

This is an all stainless steel meat tenderizer. I have an old fashioned jacquard type one with about 30 flat needles that I use all the time to tenderize steaks before grilling. The parts that actually pierce the meat on this are totally different, they are round pointed pieces of metal, almost like giant needles. It does pierce the skin very easily and I think the larger holes it produces make it easier for marinade to infuse into the meat.It's all stainless which my old fashioned one isn't, which means it can go into the dishwasher. For tenderizing meat, I think my old style does a better job because of the number of blades that actual cut the meat, this pierces the meat rather than cut it. For tenderizing steaks I will stick to my old one. But for marinating meat, I think this does a better job.

Used this tonight to tenderize our steak and it worked very well. It is heavy but not too heavy. It feels nice and works very well. It was easy to clean. Can not wait to use it on chicken

I don't believe in using chemical tenderizers; I don't think they're good for your health. If they make the meat softer, what do you think they do to your organs? Using a mechanical tenderizer seems like a much better option and this one is a well made, heavy duty one, made of 304 Stainless Steel. It has 21 needles that penetrate the meat well, breaking down the tissue, making it tender, without changing the look of the steak - it doesn't flatten it, like a tenderizing hammer would do.I just used it on my steak tonight for the first time and then marinated it for a couple of hours afterwards and the steak turned out really well, much more tender than a similar cut of meat I cooked two days prior without it.This is a heavy duty tenderizer that I'll enjoy for many years. It came well packed in a hard box packed inside another hard box. It came with a brush specifically designed to clean between the needles. This is a great addition to my kitchen!

I’ve often seen recipe instructions call for tenderizing the meat, but I never had any way to do that – until now! This is a very high-quality sturdy stainless steel meat tenderizer and I’m so impressed with it! A serious kitchen tool! It’s easy to hold, and easy to use. The needles are sharp and slide right into the meat when you press it. It retracts back after you pull it back up. The needles not only break down the tough fibers, but the tiny holes in the meat provide spaces for spices, seasonings, and marinades to penetrate into it, giving the meat great flavor as well as a smoother, more tender texture. It really does make a difference! This has really upped my grilling game and I love it!

I got this meat tenderizer to use with tough cheaper steaks and it works pretty well. It didn't come with any instructions or info on cleaning it but it does come with a small brush to clean in between the needles. I washed it in the dishwasher top rack and it washed great. To use it you basically just press down on the meat and the metal plate retracts. I usually just use a fork to do this and this tenderizer works better and sped up the time it took to tenderize the meat. Definitely happy with it.

This meat tenderizer is great! It feels really sturdy and well-made. I've used it a few times now, and it works like a charm. My steaks have been so much more tender since I started using it. Definitely a good buy!

This meat tenderizer is sturdy and does a great job softening tougher cuts. The 21 sharp needles go right through chicken and beef, making the meat cook more evenly. The grip is comfortable and it’s easy to clean. Good quality and very useful in the kitchen.
