What do you use as a smasher and is smasher hot when you put it on the meat?

Does it stay on the meat or is it just to flatten the patty?

I use a Pit Boss Griddle press like the one in the link below. I cover the meat ball with a piece of parchment paper then smash it down and hold it there for about 10 seconds or so. It works out pretty good, but the press is pretty heavy and bulky. I'm considering getting a different one that is a little smaller.

Edit: The press is not hot and I just use it to flatten the patty.
