Need new cookie press - suggestions please

I have my moms old mirro one it's finally bit the dust. I've checked a few out and I would like some feedback on best to buy -- my family loves spritz cookies. Thank you I've looked at the Wilton pro model.

My mother still uses a Mirro cookie press. Why not buy another Mirro; you can find them on ebay.

I highly recommend WILTON'S COOKIE SHOOTER UNLTRA PRO 11 . I have had many cookie shooters over my many years of baking & this unit is my favorite. I have manual dexterity problems due to 5 strokes and this unit allows me to easily shoot cookies right from the very beginning w/out wasting precious dough. This unit also includes decorator tips for frosting. Cost:$20--available at BB&B- can also use a 20% coupon.

Just saw on our last visit Costco brought a good one. I think it's being offered for the holiday season only. I don't remember the exact price, but it looked like a deal!

Thank you for suggestions I purchased the Wilton Ultra Pro today at Michaels with a $10 savings. Now to think about the cookie baking to come - just a small batch!

RE, is this manual? This is a new press to me, but I saw an electric press by Cuisinart at BB&B. It's only $29: I think I will get it. I love buttery spritz cookies, and even though I frost very few things, it could be used for that purpose. Poodlepet

poodlepet-The Wilton press is manual- you click on the handle while you hold the barrel on the baking sheet. Since the dough is soft I have no problem even w/my limited strength.
