Great garlic press!!! December 1, 2008 Why did I wait years to buy this garlic press?! This is the best! Self-cleaning really cleans itself. Very comfortable handles. I highly recommend this garlic press!!
Trudeau Garlic Press November 17, 2008 This garlic press has rubber sleeves that go over the handles, and when the press is washed water goes inside the sleeves, which requires taking the sleeves off after washing to dry out, or removing the sleeves prior to washing. Found this inconvenient.
Great product November 16, 2008 This product works as advertised. It seems to be built with heavy durable materials.
Mega volume October 21, 2008 Upgraded to this from a grocery store model. Unlike a lot of presses, the mashing part of this goes down all the way to the grating area. As a result, the output volume from this press is massive -- only a very thin membrane is left from each press. Seems to work well with unpeeled cloves as well. The press also has a good heft to it -- it feels very solid.
A kitchen neccesity October 20, 2008 Every home cook needs a garlic press. The stuff that comes in a jar has a distinct metallic flavor, and while the people with television shows can do a great job cutting up garlic with a knife, they're professionals. Yes, you can get pretty much the same flavor by chopping, but you'll still get little lumps that will mess with the texture. You can live without it, but you can also follow the recipes on soup cans -- that's eating, not cooking.
That said, a garlic press is still a B list item. It should be easy to use, easy to clean, and provide a reasonably even distribution of well crushed garlic, but the price should still be affordable. The Trudeau, rated a best buy by Cook's Illustrated, meets these standards. It's well made, apparently highly durable, and cleans easily under running water (although a spray helps -- this is true of just about every press). The price is good for what you get.
I bought this to replace an old, bargain price garlic press that required two hands for a single clove, and was a pain to clean -- and that's my only personal comparison. The Trudea needn't replace a satisfactory press, but for a first purchase it's a good choice at a fair price, and compared to some of the garlic presses on the market it's a real step up.
