    The Microfleur works really well, but there is definitely a learning curve to this product. I worked mostly with wet, petal-heavy flowers like roses, ranunculus, and peonies from my bridal bouquet. If youre working with these flowers, and you want to dry them face up, I recommend stripping some petals off the backs of the flower heads. Theyll dry flatter and wont get gummy. The instructions say to only heat the flowers for 20 seconds once, but with roses, ranunculus, and peonies, I recommend a few rounds of 20 seconds before doing 10-second bursts. I didnt have problems with the pads or cotton burning since the flowers had so much moisture. I also recommend opening the device and wiping down the moisture on the inside of the panels after each 10- or 20-second burst. I used eyelash tweezers to move the dried flowers. It takes patience, but its well worth it!

    Ive been pressing flowers for years and have tried so many techniques including using tiles in the microwave. So flowers turned out and most didnt. Most lost their color during the process. Ive been wanting to try this Microfleur for months but it was just to costly. I finally gave in and got the 9x9 and am so happy that I did. If you follow the instructions (and watch some YouTube videos) its very easy. These flowers were from my morning walk and my first time using the Microfleur. I cant believe how vibrant the colors are. Hoping they dont fade too quickly. I have so many projects where I use pressed flowers and Ive even purchased some before. But now that I can quickly & easily press my own, theres no stopping me!

    It takes a lot of practice. Start with leaves first. Then move to flowers that are not “juicy” - i.e. rose petals, etc. Remember, the people you see using it on YouTube are showing a) their best example and b) they’ve been using it awhile. Your place will smell. Given how expensive the product is and how limited (not for “juicy flowers like sunflower heads), I don’t recommend.

    I salvaged some of the flowers from my cousins wedding and arranged the dry leaves and petals in a frame as a keepsake. It just takes some patience and experimentation to figure out what kinds of flowers work best. I had great success with silver dollar eucalyptus, salal, viking mums, and veronicas.

    It is very very easy to use. In addition to reading some of the helpful reviews, I watched some videos on YouTube by ArtsyMadWoman. Her videos are helpful and entertaining. This press has been a lot of fun and has produced some stunning results. A+++

    Very sturdy, suitable for multiple uses. Best thing I’ve used for pressing flowers so far.

    It works- you have to microwave it a couple times and figure out what works but the smell it gives off is fowl. I had to literally open the windows because it smelled so bad. I guess that’s what happens when you microwave flowers and the misrule out of them but I’m disappointed no one mentioned this to me before!!!

The Microfleur Microwave Flower Press presses flowers. Fast. Leaving you with beautiful, bold colors, and unlimited creative possibilities.

The Max 9" (23 cm) Microfleur microwave flower press is Microfleur"s most wanted press with 81 square inches of pressing space. Flowers, foliage and plants are quickly pressed between two cotton liners, two thick wool pads and two vented platens, all of which are held together by 4 clips. Pressing is done in very short intervals spaced with short resting periods. Flowers can be used the same day and color retention is exceptional, compared with traditional pressing methods. The pressed flowers can then be used for greeting cards, scrapbooking, wedding and other invitations, menus, bookmarks or applied to candles and soap, art and decoupage projects. It is the ultimate flower press and is commonly used by oshibana and other artists, as well as by botanists.

Quality construction and design offers great results

Clips very firmly compress the press and plant materials to prevent puckering of flowers and leaves while drying.

Holes in the platens allow for steam to escape and to allow flowers to press with the best possible uniformity.

The liners are washable and the pads will last for hundreds of cycles.

Step 1 - Load the Press

Load fresh flowers into the press, being carefully they don"t touch or they may stick together. For thicker flowers, it is helpful to thin or remove parts that will not be seen once flattened. Pressing takes practice. It is recommended to start with thinner flowers, such as pansies or violas.

Step 2 - Microwave

Do an initial burst in the microwave, following the instruction booklet. Drying times are dependent on the wattage of the microwave and the moisture content of each flower. Drying is done in multiple short bursts, instead of one long burst.

Step 3 - Check the Flowers

Wipe moisture off platens (plastic plates) and carefully open the press to check/touch your flowers, feeling all over. If they are sticky, then they need another burst. Repeat as necessary, letting your press cool if it is getting too hot. If the flowers have a papery feel, but not crispy, then they are dried.
