What Reviewers Say

So simple, so effective. Perfect triangles every time. Kids love making their own onigiri. Much easier than hand-shaping, especially for beginners. Dishwasher safe is a big plus. Sized to match convenience store onigiri. Some note you need to wet it each time, but that's standard for rice molds.
