Finally... a virtually perfect garlic press!
I have long struggled on my quest to get the perfect garlic press. So mundane, but so important. I found one good product decades ago that was cast aluminum solid construction and it worked well. Unfortunately, the rivet holding the handle to the base broke and I was forced to put a bent nail to hold it together. It worked, but it looked pretty pitiful. Models appeared along the way, but could not measure up to this solid purchase.Along came the Roesle products. I had purchased a peeler that was solid and well constructed. So I opted to finally replace my old press for its version. It also featured a "cleaning" option.This product is spectacular! It is not only solidly constructed as a stainless steel press, but the pressure I am able to exert on the pressing action is so much better... it has a better mechanical advantage than my treasured older one. Moreover, the cleaning option is simply a movement of the straining part of the press to be available for direct cleaning. So the difficulty removing the leftover fibrous part of the clove is eliminated. The material can be easily rinsed off (or in some cases the material can be easily added to the stew pot if appropriate). The archaic effort to unclog the micro-holes of my old press with a toothpick or needle simply goes away. Any remnants stuck in the holes of the exposed part will reliably wash off in the dishwasher.Trust me that it is worth the price if you regularly use garlic like we do. No more of the, "Jeez, should I add another clove or two" decision. It is so easy, you make the right choice every time. While I don't go to the extent that some have said about not peeling the clove, I do at least cut off the attachment end of the clove (and then you can leave the paper on the clove) before putting it in the press.I am a happy Roesle garlic press user!

Works great
Still jams up and such like other presses, but it handles hard crushing well and is much easier to clean due to its design. The splurge in price is well worth it especially if you’re like my wife and just love garlic an unhealthy amount.

Strong and it works!
This is the best garlic press I have ever owned. It thoroughly presses the garlic cloves and is fairly easy to remove garlic. Also easy to clean.

Very sturdy and can mince anything
I can decide if I like it or not. It is a little finicky to clean, as you have to flip up the grater and also manipulate the legs quite a bit. I’m able to put unpeeled garlic in it, and it does pulverize it. But picking out the paper after each clove is a bummer. I just think there’s no easy garlic solution, that preserves the taste the way whole cloves do

Both for garlic and ginger!
This tool is so easy to use! I am loving it! I used it not only for garlic mince but also ginger juice squeeze!Now I don't need to buy ginger juice bottles from the shops! What a bless!

Not worth the money.
WAY over priced for the quality. It does an average job pressing garlic, but is miserable to press ginger or turmeric with, despite the advertising.It is very hard to squeeze fully closed, had to use the counter for leverage.It is not at all easy to clean as the scraper feature serves no function other than to push bits into the nooks and crannies of the hinges which are not easily washed out.Do not recommend
