Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of SiliconeZone Garlic Peeler, OrangeCustomer Review: Get the regular "roll" kind instead Summary: 1 Stars
I bought one of these from Macy's a while ago. Since it's a little cheaper than the other roll type (looks like a toilet paper cardboard tube), I thought I'd give it a try. I had two heads of garlic to peel, and I tried to use this garlic peeler to shuck cloves. It really didn't do anything, didn't matter how many cloves were in the ball at a time.
The way these are supposed to work is that the rubber surface has enough friction to get the garlic peel to stick to it - you do have to roll it on a flat surface in order to crack the peel from the garlic. Unfortunately, because this peeler is round and a little too big, it can't generate enough friction to actually take off the peel. Perhaps this one is supposed to be used differently, but you can't figure that out from the instructions.
Pros: neat looking design, kinda fun to play with, easy to clean (rinse with water)
Cons: doesn't peel garlic, instructions not helpful
Description of SiliconeZone Garlic Peeler, OrangeSilicone Zone Garlic Peeler, Orange The mechanics of this garlic peeler are so simple, you?ll wonder how you lived without one for so long. Honored at the January 2003 Housewares Show as one of the best products of the year, this peeler is quick and effortless at removing skin from garlic cloves. The tool is shaped like a bulb of garlic in a fun, festive color. Cooks simply drop up to three cloves at a time into the bulb and roll it back and forth across their work surface. The peeler flips inside out to remove the peeled cloves, keeping hands free of garlic odors. This kitchen tool is made of FDA-approved food-grade silicone, which provides a non-skid interior surface that gently pulls peels away from the garlic. SilconeZone?s revolutionary tool turns inside-out for cleaning in the dishwasher and is covered by a lifetime warranty. --Cristina Vaamonde
