Seconds are the proverbial runts of the litter. They are items that, despite being new, contain one or multiple imperfections that render them unsellable at full price, from chips in paint or stone to a crushed outer box. Rather than dispose of them, we prefer to find these items great homes with just the right kind of owners, the ones who are willing to trade an imperfection for a steep discount. All seconds are final sale.

Unfortunately, no. The products are boxed up in our warehouse, and it would be near impossible to unpackage and photograph them all. So, you’ll have to embrace a certain element of mystery! We’ve tried to illustrate some examples of what you might expect in the image galleries of each product page, and we hope you find that helpful.

Our team has reviewed seconds quality to ensure every product is functional as intended, with potential cosmetic concerns that don’t warrant full price. Quirky! Still not satisfied? Send us a note to [email protected], and we'll do our best to make it right.

Our seconds ship from a separate warehouse from the rest of the items on our site. Due to limited team bandwidth, we aim to ship all seconds within 10-14 days from receiving your order. Items ordered on the seconds sale launch day of October 29th should ship by November 12th.

Since well-hydrated masa can be moist and sticky, it should not be applied directly onto the press — you’ll need to use plastic liners. A good thin liner, like ours, will also make the process of removing the masa easier and faster. Your Tortilla Press comes with one set of Masienda’s custom liners — they’re the perfect size and peel away easily from masa. You can also use a thin grocery bag, or in a pinch, Ziplock bags work but have a higher tendency to stick to the masa.
