> 3 dayThe Microfleur is great! I got the larger size, as I had a lot of wildflowers to dry to include in resin products. I was able to dry hundreds of flowers and leaves in just a few hours, rather than waiting weeks for them to dry with traditional pressing methods. Additionally, color preservation was better than with flowers pressed under a book. Some flowers do take a surprising number of rounds to dry, because they are full of water. Keep with it and make sure the flowers are fully dry, though. It is worth it in the long run, as the flowers wont rot or change color, ruining your project.

> 3 dayUnlike screw down style, every square inch of the pressing plate is usable. Clips slip on and off in seconds! Even arthritic hands and children are able to operate. 60 seconds is sufficient for most flowers and leaves. Moisture from dehydration evaporates off within minutes allowing just enough time to refill for the next batch. Note that all the pieces should be separated when hot and moist to facilitate drying otherwise the pieces get too wet and therefore too hot. All pieces must be dry before use.

> 3 dayThe product came very quickly. I’ve used Microfleur many times and love the results. Just as the directions say many flowers don’t retain they’re colors and some flowers take longer to dry than others. The process takes some experimentation. Not a problem for me. Have fun

> 3 dayI love this press! This is my first time using a flower press of any type (other than pressing flowers between pages in a book) and this press is fantastic. I picked flowers, placed them in the press, and about 5 minutes later (heating intervals of 10 and 20 seconds, with 10-20 second rest periods in between) I have paper-like flowers ready to be set in resin!!! My pink flowers turned a deep purple, but still beautiful.

> 3 dayI bought this to preserve flowers from my sons funeral. Until I watched a few YouTube videos I never knew this product existed. Ive always dried them the old fashioned way of squishing them in a book and waiting and waiting and waiting. This allowed me to dry flowers in under 30 minutes. I then put them in silicone molds filled with epoxy so I have an item I can cherish forever

> 3 dayReally enjoy using this, I dry flowers a lot so I do wish the bigger size was bigger but then I dont know if it would fit in the microwave. Easy to use, instructions straightforward. Note: you cant use too thick of material or else the clamps will not secure onto the square. You also just have to do some trial and error with your personal microwave and find out what flowers need certain drying times. I would 100% buy again, love using this tool for drying flowers!

> 3 dayJust received the flower press today and used it right away. DO NOT USE IT WITH DRY SHEETS! I used it twice on pansies, 30 seconds each time, the third time is was lightening storm in my microwave! Make sure you lightly spray the wool sheets with a spray bottle between dryings. Ive dried about 2 dozen flowers now and they all turned out great.
