Default ssl/spree?

What is the difference between a straight sided lentil or spree? Which shape is the easiest to use? Thanks

They're the same thing. "Spree" is just the nickname for the straight sided lentil.

If you were asking which is easier SSL (spree) or regular lentil, then I would say the SSL is way easier. Zoozii makes excellent quality presses.

Isn't the spree flat on top and the SSL more curved, like a dome at the top? If so, I prefer the SSL.

No. They are the same press. There is no "Spree" press. The actual name is the Straight Sided Lentil and people call it the Spree because it's shaped like Spree candies. The flat top you're referring to is a Tab.
