NorproSilver Garlic Press, One Size

I was hesitant to buy another kitchen gadget, especially since mincing garlic can easily be done with a knife or you can buy the jars of it. I never realized how often I would use this product. I use it all the time and don't even bother buying those little jars anymore. I keep lots of whole garlic cloves on hand and mince them fresh with this press. What a difference fresh garlic makes! I still find myself chopping or slicing for certain recipes but this product has come in handy quite a bit. It's easy to use, easy to clean and the quality is good too.

Great little tool. Works great at crushing the garlic, you can get enough pressure by to get everything through the holes, but what i really like is the tool to clean out the holes, no more trying to get my brush through them to clear them out

Well constructed, heavy enough, and just enough slop in the fit to work well. Really tight fitting presses tend to try and push stuff through the mesh you don't want pushed. This one sends the garlic and pushed the skin and nib out the back dependably. I'm of the school that for most uses, you should put your cloves under the flat side of a chefs knife or santoku, whack it once or twice, then skin and mince. That said, when garlic is going into a stew, or sauce, I want the juice as much as the solids, and that's when I press. This one does a fine job, and is for my mind better than some of the more expensive alternatives.

I'd had this particular garlic press for years and it was perfect. Unfortunately it met its demise through no fault of its own. I purchased another garlic press that was supposed to be the best garlic press ever. Well, it is very nice and heavy and has extra features.... However, after using it for a month or two it is now sitting in the back of the drawer. I purchased another Norpro garlic press! I am telling you that this press is a little gem. Lightweight, no gadgetry or extra parts, straight to the point garlic press. The only downside that I could possibly find is that you can't put it in the dishwasher but who cares. It takes seconds to wash, a no-brainer! I am a seasoned cook and I highly recommend this garlic press to those who just want to get the job done.

It was a inferior piece of cooking equipment that broke in half after one squeeze

I love this garlic press so much. When i need a new one i search for only this one. Can't put it in the dishwasher however. That is why you would need to buy a replacement.

After looking up many choices (some costing double and triple the price) I settled on this one mainly due to the reasonable price tag. So far it's worked out great for me. It fits in my hand just perfect and minces a pretty fair sized garlic clove effortlessly. It comes with it's own cleaner which fits perfectly into all the holes which makes extruding the left behind pieces of garlic very easy. For well under $10 you can't go wrong.

The garlic press I got had curved handles, completely different than shown. Disappointing because I was looking for one just like the picture.

Resistente y fácil de limpiar
