I've been searching for the perfect garlic press for FOREVER! Had a pampered chef press for many years but was never satisfied. Tried 3 different presses through Amazon last year and settled on one that just wasn't doing it for me. I recently ordered this ZYLISS Susi 3 Garlic Press and all my wishes have been granted. The press holds a couple cloves; pressed garlic comes out in nice small pieces; hand pressure is easy - no gorilla strength needed; the handy tool for cleaning is great; but the best part is that ALL of the garlic clove is pressed through the holes - there's literally NO parts left in the press. Virtually all other presses have a bunch of un-pressed garlic that climbs up the side of the hopper and you have to scrape it back down and press again and again to get all of your clove pressed. Not with the Zyliss. There's no waste and I'm an extremely happy cook!

Around Thanksgiving I happened to complain about our older garlic press which was the cheaper, sheet metal style press with the removable grate, so I bought this one and gave it to my wife for Christmas. She happened to buy me an Oxo brand one so we got to test both head-to-head. Overall, this one was our favorite due to the little nubs on the press, which really forces the garlic (and ginger) directly through the holes, and the little red tool which nests in the handle and makes it really easy to remove skin after pressing a clove. Easy to wash by just throwing in the dishwasher.Update: The red tool cannot hold up to the dishwasher if the silverware tray is on the bottom rack. The plastic softened which caused the alignment of the tool's teeth to change. We've since thrown the red tool away and just use a fork or butter knife to remove the skin from the press. I still highly recommend this press and would buy it again in a heartbeat.

This garlic press is the best. Can press garlic cloves over and over without having to scrape out the peel each time. Comes with a spatula like cleaner that on one end helps scrape the peel when you are done and the other end has tiny spikes tht perfectly fit into the holes to clean the other side. Easy to clean and easy to use. Great value. 5 stars! Definately recommend.

I've been on a long quest for the perfect garlic press. This one comes close, and I use it all the time, but it's still a little off the mark. My search goes on...PROS:* Beautiful design -- subjective, but I love seeing it in my drawer.* Compact size makes it easy to handle. My wife especially appreciates this.* Produces even, finely minced garlic.CONS:* Relatively small capacity, and you need to peel the garlic (the flip side of the small size).* Relatively expensive (you pay for that design).* Annoying to clean, despite the integrated cleaning tool.That last detail is the reason for 4 stars instead of 5. I've never found a garlic press that was truly easy to clean, and this one still isn't it. The red cleaning tool works pretty well when it's new, but the plastic is too soft and the little teeth quickly bend. Once the teeth no longer line up with the holes in the press, you have to carefully pry out the garlic remains with the end part of the tool or -- very gently to avoid ugly scratches -- with a pointed knife. It's not a big deal, but it's annoying, especially for a premium product.

This works!!!! I’m never peeling garlic again!!!!

Please note: I am no chef so I do not have extensive knowledge of many kitchen utensils. But I do love to cook with garlic and have used my fair share of garlic presses.One of the last presses I owned was one of those heavy, chrome-plated numbers with the big soft EZ-grip handles. It may have been easy to grip but it was a mess to clean, even after I peeled the garlic--which was a requirement to use this thing. But I dealt with it because, hey! it's kind of fancy and probably top-of-the-line, and cleaning out garlic pulp with a toothpick was just a fact of life that every garlic lover had to endure.Then it broke. And for a time we were reduced to smashing our garlic like Neanderthals. That is until *this* little baby went on sale.When I received it, it didn't feel particularly solid. But it was on sale and eh... I'm pressing garlic, not walnuts. I did appreciate at the fact that I didn't need to peel the garlic, saving me more than a few seconds of prep, fumbling with the garlic skin like I was one of those 'before' videos in late night infomercial.However the real fun came with the cleaning: using the red garlic peel pokey-brush-thingie, the skin and mess all came out in one fell swoop! Any remaining tiny bits were easily dispatched with the skinnier pokey handle-end-thingie! And this magical little item is always at hand as it tucks happily away in the handle, ready to be popped out in a moment's notice! You do usually have to clean after every clove--and I always use more garlic. But the little red thingie is always at hand, waiting to scrub away another sticky peel.Pros:- Easy to use. Time spent removing garlic skin would be better spent pouring wine.- Easy to clean. Let me say there's something aesthetically pleasing using the garlic brush-a-mabob and getting those little bristles into all the little holes. It's like the bubble wrap of doing dishes.- The brush-a-mabob itself! It lives in the handle. Such engineering! Save your toothpicks for picking teeth or garnishing cocktails.Cons:- It does feel a little... light? for lack of a better word. I do honestly hope it lasts for a good long while. I've had too many squeezing-type kitchen tools snap in mid squeeze.- Price vs build. It's priced the same as other presses, though it does seem to be made of lighter material. I guess I will have to wait-and-see. If it lasts more than a couple years, then i think it was worth it.- Cleaning after every clove. Are there presses that effectively alleviate this? I have yet to find one.Overall:It's weird but I really do enjoy using this item. Maybe it's because its the first press I've used that didn't need pre-peeled garlic? Whatever the case, it's helped make our kitchen a little bit happier. Anytime I'm about to add garlic to a dish, I actually announce it so I can draw attention to the fact that I'm about to use the press. I think it's starting to annoy my girlfriend.

Unlike the CuisinArt brand of garlic press (which we bought and returned), this thing works perfectly. Spend the little extra money and buy this once and for all time.It fully pushes all the garlic through, and doesnt flatten the garlic unto a tiny pancake at the bottom of the press like the CuisinArt does - this means almost total garlic extraction.Cleaning is simple with just soap and water; I don't think it's dishwasher safe, but it's so fast to clean manually that it doesn't really matter, and the slight inconvenience is negligible when compared to the item's garlic pressing performance.

Product as described, easy to use and clean, no peeling needed!!

Buenísimo ya que no requiere ni pelar los ajos y es fácil de limpiar y al guardarlo no ocupa mucho espacio

アメリカからの出荷で、数日かかりましたが、本国の方のレビュー通り、これまで使ったガーリックプレスの中でも最も使いやすく品質も高い商品と感じました（耐久性はまだわかりませんが）

Verey good quality
