I've got one of those to and it seems to work great. My last cheddar didn't knit well but I think that is more due to not keeping my curds hot enough into the first press. I guess that means I'll have to make some more - rats, all I need is more cheese. All the other cheeses I've pressed in it didn't need a freight train to sit on them have come out quite well. No leaning towers of cheesa.
BTW - the press maker at
http://cabarrusfarms.com
has changed out the tray to poly and the follower will follow. I have had problems with whey drying on the wooden tray and cleaning it well enough to my standards wasn't working out so well so I think the switch to poly is best. It is a very sturdy press for the $ IMHO.

I was fortunate enough to have a tupperware rectangular container about 3 inches high the same size as the board so I placed my mold into that, sitting on the board, and it held the whey.

Okay, I did this to make your choice a bit easier.
