 Generic Review in favor of product Apr 18, 2009
By TravisPf
Anyone that's ever been to a Mexican-themed restaurant knows exactly what this item is. This particular one is fairly large and will hold my home-made 8" tortillas nicely. With a damp washcloth (folded twice) and a layer of wax paper on the bottom it will easily hold a dozen home-made 8" tortillas. To reheat tortillas just place the container with the washcloth, wax paper and tortillas into a microwave for 30 seconds to two minutes. (Amount of time depends on: number of tortillas, how cold the whole container is to begin with, and dampness of the washcloth.) Also keeps my tortillas in the refrigerator nicely for a surprisingly-long amount of time.

Nice tortilla warmer! Dec 18, 2008
By Miss Perez
This product does what it says....Warms your tortillas. It may not be the most attractive design but it does what it is intended to do. For the price and the performance...why spend more on a fancy schmancy one?

 Not deep enough Jul 24, 2009
By Squeaker

This thing is good at keeping tortillas warm, but it's not deep enough for a batch of homemade tortillas. It will hold two 10 packs of store-bought tortillas that are thin, but the homemade tortillas, which I can never get as thin as store-bought, keep the lid ajar. The container is deep enough, but the bottom of the lid has a "dip" in it that presses against the tortillas and keeps the lid from closing tightly. What a shame. I guess I'll be purchasing the larger warmer.
With tortillas getting expensive AND being filled with hydrogenated vegetable oils, I finally found a SOFT tortilla recipe that I can easily roll out with a rolling pin. It's 3 cups of self-rising flour, 1 cup of warm milk and 5 tablespoons of olive oil. Mix it into a ball by hand or in a food processor. I don't even have to let them sit for 20 minutes. Just divide into 12 balls, lay a damp paper towel over them as you roll each out (roll from the center out) and then cook for about 30 seconds per side in a skillet. Other tortilla recipes were difficult to roll out and tasted hard like crackers.

 You're going to waste time because of the packaging Aug 17, 2010
By Jason M. Page
My wife and I always heat tortillas up on our grill or in a non stick skillet. We thought this would be fun and convenient since it looked to be exactly the same thing that all of the local Mexican restaurants use to serve tortillas. The item shows up shrink wrapped with a big paper label glued to one side. No big deal right? Wrong. That label ended up taking forever to remove due to the adhesive that was used, which seems to be some interesting cross between the sap of the gum tree and some kind of highly adhesive wolverine spittle.
After removing the label we still couldn't get all of the tacky residue removed. Even after running it through the dishwasher and cleaning it with contractor grade solvent remover. Finally I bought a bottle of goo gone professional spray and it SEEMS as though every trace of the satan glue is gone.
So, I would say, avoid this product. It might be functional and it is very affordable.. but when you realize that the manufacturer decided to save a few cents using the cheapest demon glue they could find to attach the label and that you will spend a couple of hours of your life removing it you realize it just isn't worth it.
Application for positive Amazon review denied!

Goo Gone Jan 06, 2010
By Ann
Great product, made in China like everything else, but what's up with the adhesive label covering half of one side. Tried soaking it in hot water, dish detergent, used the back end of a butter knife but NOTHING gets that label off without leaving an adhesice mess behind. Even using Goo Gone (a citrus solvent) it took a good five minutes of aggressive peeling and fingernail work to get it cleaned up. This was completely UNECESSARY! Wake up, Imusa, get a sticker that peels off please!
