As indicated, the cooking surface of the comal is about 9 inches. Additionally, there's a border at the edge which isn't a problem for smaller tortillas but this can be an issue when you're trying to make homemade flour tortillas as you're limited in surface space. Not only do you need that extra space for fitting the tortilla, but you also need it to fit your thumb or a utensil to flip it. Just something to keep in mind. Also, it has a very porous surface which slightly affects the appearance of the tortillas. Otherwise, it's been an effective product.

I ordered the $35one & much to my dismay,I found the exact same product(same demensions,same maker-everything the same)for $16 at Walmart.I've already used mine so I can't return it & I've already gotten rid of the receipt that came with it. I like the product-just wish I would've found the $16 one before I paid what I did!

The comal is a Mexican style grill or griddle. A large seasoned cast iron plate or griddle used to make tortillas and blister chiles. Makes a perfect fajita and quesadilla pan. Size for cooking surface is 9 inches, total diameter is 10.5".
The comal is traditionally painted black as protection against rust. You need to first hand wash with soap and water, make sure you grease the comal with vegetable oil, then heat it on the grill for 30 minutes; finally dry and remove the excess grease with a paper towel. Your comal is now ready to use!
