Alpha Grillers Garlic Press Stainless Steel - Easy to Clean, Rust-Proof, Dishwasher Safe - Stainless Steel Garlic Press, Mincer, Crusher with Silicone Peeler & Cleaning Brush

I cook all the time. Not only do I prepare all of our meals from scratch due to family diet issues, but I have a large, organic garden and I preserve food from it all the time. I love food with flavor so I use lots of peppers, onions, ginger and garlic! I have worn out several garlic presses in my lifetime. The last one literally broke when I tried to press ginger into some water kefir. Tired of cheap crap, I got decided to find a quality garlic press. Noting the life time guarantee, I purchased the Alpha Grillers Garlic Press and Peeler Set about a year and a half ago and have been using it just about daily ever since for both garlic and ginger. It is fantastic! WHAT IS IN THE BOX: Beautifully presented in a lovely gift box, I received both the stainless steel garlic press plus a silicone tube garlic peeler. WHAT I LIKE: I have been using this garlic press for a year and a half and it looks as nice today as it did when I bought it. It shows absolutely no signs of wear. This press feels solid and durable in my hand. Use has proven it so. The stainless steel construction allows me to wash this in the dishwasher and I do. Every time I use it. The silicone garlic peeler is much nicer than I expected. Every year I make a couple of gallons of homemade salsa and peeling the garlic took forever in the past. I started using the silicone peeler for my garlic and it revolutionized my garlic peeling process. It works fast! Because I am no longer replacing my garlic press every couple of years, I will save money. This press works for ginger as well as garlic. I have used it with ginger a few times and there isn’t the slightest bulge or bow where the garlic/ginger comes out. I am normally wary of rounded handles like this because they can hold water when washed. I have NEVER had any water issues with this press. WHAT I DON’T LIKE: I love this garlic press. There is nothing I do not like. PICTURES: I am including various pictures of the press in my hand for a size reference. I have small hands. I also have a picture of the part that extrudes the garlic. It shows no signs of wear after a year and a half of constant use. I purchased the Alpha Grillers Garlic Press and Peeler Set at FULL PRICE. I love this set and highly recommend it. It definitely deserves 5 stars!

Quality tool. I like that it's fully stainless steel. Easy to clean. I haven't mastered the garlic peeler yet.

Does a good job pressing garlic but gets clogged up and needs to be cleaned out each pressing.

Does a good job. I prefer to use it with peeled garlic, but it works with unpeeled. Cleans nicely and seems to be good quality. Handles are comfortable and don’t hurt when squeezing.

I don't know what the difference is between this garlic press and the propresser but the pictures look almost exactly the same and this one includes the peeler for basically the same price. The garlic press works extremely well and is head and shoulders above my old one which was too small. This one is very sturdy and has a nice solid feel to it, I can't imagine it will break and it was very easy to clean. I haven't tried to mince ginger yet but by the looks of it I don't see a problem. The most surprising thing about this purchase was the peeler. I was a bit stunned by how well it worked. I thought it was just a gimmicky throw-in but it's not. I've peeled garlic many different ways before but this is by far the best and easiest. The first clove I tried came out smashed similar to what happens when you crush the clove with the flat of the knife and I had to pull parts of the peel out of the clove. The second one came out with about half of the peel still on it, but it was loose and I got it off quickly without any trouble. The third and fourth clove came out without any peel on them at all. So it took just a little practice to figure out how to make it work, but it works unbelievably well. It takes about 3 seconds to roll the clove in the peeler and have it come out completely intact with no peel on it at all. This is by far the easiest and least messy way to peel garlic that I've ever found. This garlic press is a keeper, it works as well as you would expect and it seems to be very solidly built to last. The added garlic peeler however makes this the best buy of them all. If you've never used one of these types of peelers before, trust me, you will be at least slightly amazed.

This is a fast and convenient tool for crushing garlic cloves.

I bought this after a quick search on Amazon and seeing all the good reviews. I grew up using my mom's Pampered Chef garlic press, which is smaller (especially the handle part), more ergonomic, has a little plastic tool that fits into the holes to clean it out well, and is easy to use. I didn't think it would really matter which garlic press I bought, but I don't think my hands have grown much since we got that one when I was 10 years old, so as an adult woman with small hands this one was just not easy enough to use comparatively. I cannot press more than 1 clove at a time unless my partner is nearby to do it for me; it is just a struggle and much simpler to do one at a time. I do not like the hinge layer part, which is difficult to clean and swings up/down when you don't want it to while either loading garlic or cleaning it out. Overall it is difficult to clean. The tool it comes with is a brush and doesn't get into the press holes easily, and there are so many corners between all the layers where garlic gets stuck by the time you're done prepping your food. The peeling tube, however, is awesome and I use it frequently!! You just pop in a couple cloves and roll it, and the peel slides right off. So much easier than using the side of my knife for one at a time and then peeling the clove and getting garlic smell under my nails. It is very well made in terms of materials and quality and I have no doubt it will hold up to regular use. So if you have normal size hands and strength this will probably be fine. But if you have small hands, are cooking with your kids, or are used to an easy-to-use garlic press, this one is not for you. I bought a different one that I can use and clean easily so this is just sitting in in the drawer, though I'm probably see if anyone in my family wants it.

The garlic press works very well and the garlic roller is fantastic for getting the garlic skin off.

It is so easy to mince the garlic! I had another from another brand, that one was so tough and required a lot of arm muscles, this however, is effortless!

This but was one of my best buys and wished I'd done it years ago rather than struggle with peeling the little blighters. Took a few attempts to get used to the peeler before I got it right but there no stopping me now. Yeh it's one more thing to wash n clean but it's easy done and I feel like there less waste. Yes the actual crusher is smart and will leave the peel in its holder but I feel there is less waste and you get more garlic out if you peel it first. The item is very strong and not as much effort required to crush the clove as in other crushers so well done for whatever you done on that side. Easy to clean and it all comes apart easy enough to do that. Arrived on time and in a lovely presentation box and great customer service with emails providing contact details should there be any issues. More than pleased with this purchase. Would recommend

I like it. It looks very sturdy & easy to use.
