Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Zyliss Jumbo Garlic Press with Cleaner
Customer Review: Used it for years and still think its a great Press
Summary: 5 Stars
I have small hands, so I don't overload the press with 3 or more cloves, pressing 2 cloves at a time is no big deal and if I need to mince 8 or more cloves, I usually use a mini-food processor. I think loading up any press would be difficult to use. I have used many presses through the years and have thrown them all out except for this one, which I bought about 5 years ago. I grow my own garlic and when its fresh it's very juicy. Old garlic will become drier and develop a root in the center, which should be removed by cutting it in half; doing it that way you can fill it up and it will have less resistance. However, loading up ANY garlic press with whole and unpeeled (or even peeled) garlic would be difficult for anyone. That said, I truly love using this press, its lightweight and a snap to clean up. I don't ever put it in the dishwasher, why bother when it's easy doing it by hand.Customer Review: Great Garlic Press

Summary: 5 Stars
After using many different garlic presses over the years I was fed up with their inability to do what they were designed to do and always went back to mincing the garlic by hand. Being an "America's Test Kitchen" fan I always saw them using this garlic press, but they never seemed to mention what it was called. When they eventually did I ordered it the very same day and have not minced a clove of garlic by hand since (almost a year now).
This press can easily handle any type of garlic you throw at it. I press garlic without the paper, my wife does it with the paper and either way it works the same. It can easily fit 2 or 3 small cloves or 2 large cloves in the hopper and press it like nothing was even in there. The cleaner is also very handy, until it finds its way to the garbage disposal. Even so, you can easily order replacement cleaners directly from Zyliss for very little.
Overall this is a great garlic press. It has worked itself into my kitchen as a kitchen gadget staple and I'm sure it will hold that position for the years to come. I've recommended it to several family members and friends and each have been equally impressed.
Customer Review: Regular use for 3 months and still going well.
Summary: 4 Stars
My last press lasted for about 7 or 8 years. So far, I'm happy with this one. I even use to help chop ginger.
I don't particularly like the small poker for the holes. It works well, but ours got lost down the disposal and came out all chewed up.
But the press still works well and cleans well.
