Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of MIU France Stainless Steel Garlic Press with Dual Interchangeable Head
Customer Review: It's Okay
Summary: 3 Stars
I can't complain too much. I guess it's pretty good for the price and it is stainless steel.
The handles are hard plastic & a bit narrow. I have tiny slender hands & they don't hurt me.
The ability to interchange the gauge heads is nice. It also makes it easier to clean.
My peeves are the garlic likes to squeeze out through the sides. I guess the plastic pusher isn't flush enough with the head. The plastic pusher is another peeve. I don't like plastic being in contact with my food. It is hard plastic in case you were wondering. Last, if you are not careful, the head can fall out while you are using it.
I don't regret buying this because it wasn't expensive & I think it will last a long time. It isn't all bad. If I spent a lot of cash on it, I would be pretty darn pissed.
If you don't want to spend a lot on a garlic press, want stainless steel, & don't want to have a hard time cleaning it, then you might think this is worth it over the pricier models.
Customer Review: Almost great
Summary: 3 Stars
This thing has served me for years. It was the first really good one I bought just after too many years of college. Now I'm 44 so it's lasted over a decade. However, now that I use it more and more I'm shopping for a new one. Why? Despite the wonderfully easy to clean design due to the removable perforated piece (of which I lost the coarse one years ago), and a nice white Delrin plastic plunger, the perforated plate bows out a bit due to high pressure and so even if the plunger goes all the way in, a layer of un-extruded garlic remains on the back of the plate. I'm now shopping for one with the little spikes that push right through the plate instead of merely butt up against it. It's actually easy to get that extra garlic out of it, so I guess I just want a nicer toy, even though this one looks so cool. A garlic press needs cast metal instead of thick sheet metal, I guess.Customer Review: excellent Henkel's replacement
Summary: 4 Stars
Great product. I bought the original Henkel's garlic press and have been unable to find replacements for the metal inserts. My kids have lost them to the garbage disposal over the years. So the dimensions on this press are identical to the Henkel's and I love the way it cleans. Glad someone made a knock-off, and for a lot cheaper than I originally paid.Customer Review: Great Product
Summary: 5 Stars
I have owned this garlic press for about one month now and it works great. Very easy to clean. I do not get my hand/fingers pinched like some others. I like the fact that it comes with two different sizes. I would highly recommend.
