Product Description The Chef'n GarlicZoom will mince your garlic in seconds! And your fingers won't smell like garlic when you're done!Just fill the Garlic Zoom with a clove or two and roll on your countertop. The stainless steel blades inside will chop your peeled cloves
Amazon.com Review Could there be a more whimsical way to chop or mince garlic? Simply insert a few peeled cloves in the top "trapdoor" of this little machine, close it, and roll the Zoom back and forth (with a little pressure) on the countertop. You can watch the stainless-steel blades inside doing their work through the clear body. When the chopping looks done to your specifications, open up the whole top half of the Zoom, remove the blade unit, and scrape out the garlic. Easy as pie, with no smelly hands to scrub. Another creative kitchen toy from the folks at Chef'n, the Garlic Zoom makes a great gift, gets kids involved in helping out, and is dishwasher-safe on the top rack. --Ann Bieri

easy to use September 11, 2008 Very easy to use - I like the idea, but I do find that some of the garlic gets caught in the corners and around the wheels, so you lose some that you mince.
Not worth your time August 12, 2008 This garlic crusher zoom is so not worth your time. First of all the garlic bulb gets stuck onto the small blades. If your lucky after a few minutes of using the garlic zoom the garlic is diced and now the question is how to get all the garlic out? Then you have to use your fingers which get all smelly. It's much easier to use the garlic press.
Awesome! July 21, 2008 Chops and minces garlic with ease, not to mention helps keeps hands clean and free from garlic odor. Use caution while washing the blade. I would definately recommend this product!
Chef'n Garlic chopper, quite good July 13, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
You put smallish pieces of garlic clove in the top and wheel the device to and fro. A wheel drives rotating cutting blades. Pretty quickly the garlic is either cut or turned into a paste, depending on its moistness. You snap open the device, push out the debris and reload for another batch.
Another review mentioned clean-up. This is actually not bad, the device comes apart easily and the bits can be put in the dishwasher or soaked for a bit of a brushing out.
It takes quite a bit of downward pressure to get the wheel to grip and thus drive the cutting blades. It would be hard to use on some smooth cooktops, I use a wooden cutting board.
Terrific, terrific, terrific!!! July 9, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I cannot say enough about this product. I love garlic so much and because of the time it takes to prepare I didn't eat it as much as I would have liked. Also I do not like the pre cut garlic that come in the jars, yuck! This lovely product chops and dices your garlic from chunky to fine depending on how long you "zip" or roll it. I like my garlic as fine as possible. I accomplish this by tapping the Zoom on its wheels after a couple of passes this brings the garlic pieces back down to the chopping blades where they are then re chopped thus making it finer. As you roll your Zoom the garlic has a tendency to stick to the top so by tapping the Zoom it brings it down.
Cleaning is a snap, rinse, shake and put away. I wish there was something like this for ginger.
