Garlic Press Rocker

I keep struggling with chopping up garlic, so my husband one night found this product. I love it. It mixes the garlic so small just perfect for being able to use in dishes and sauté easy to clean. It’s a great product. I would definitely buy it again.

This garlic press works beautifully! This gives you a minced garlic rather than a crushed result. It's really easy to use and just as easy to clean! It has a nice comfortable grip and measures about 4-1/2" Long. It comes with a little scraper as well. I love it!

Neatest thing since the find of Garlic itself. One push and wal-la. Perfect minced garlic. No more squeeze the handles and then only to find chunks in the bowl that didn’t make the squeeze. Makes making minced garlic a breeze. Easy to clean and takes up less storage space as old garlic presses. Easy on the pocket book as well. A must have in my kitchen.

Good product but takes a little more pressure to use than I expected.

While you do have to press pretty hard with the crusher, the result is awesome. The extra tools included in this kit make the whole process just amazingly easy. I wish I had found this decades ago!

I love this thing and I can keep crashing as many cloves as I want. It is so much easier to use and clean compared to the hand help presses. I'd recommend hand washing when possible. One of the decorative panels fell off after a few runs through the dishwasher.

CRUSHERMy favorite that I've used. Easiest to deal with. My second favorite is the one from IKEA because it has the door on the side that opens, but this one is even simpler to clean. I guess the IKEA one is slightly easier to actually do the crushing but this one is plenty easy enough.PEELERThis is the best of three similar peelers I've used. It does better than one I have with a smooth inside, and better than a square one I wrap around the garlic because it keeps them contained better. I would prefer one with a longer length, but I've never seen one like that.SCRAPER & BRUSHI haven't used these yet. I usually have a small knife in use when I cook so I simply use the back of that. The scraper is superfluous for this reason.

Why did I not know about this device before! Absolutely the best kitchen/cooking helper that I have purchased in years! It did EXACTLY what it promised. WEll made, affordable, thoughtful accessories, and I love it. I did not like mincing fresh garlic with a knife or even peeling them in the past but this garlic press rocker is a game changer!

This is the best garlic chopper I've ever used. I have so many that work but are difficult to use with my hand's mobility problems. This solves the problem because the rocker is easy to grip. Teh unit is easy to clean, and it presses down really well. I wish I had it years ago.

This garlic press is a dream come true for cooks. Unlike traditional garlic mincers that are difficult to clean, this one is refreshingly simple. Just peel a clove, press down while rocking it back and forth, then scrape off the minced garlic with a knife. It works quickly, minces garlic in seconds, and cleans up easily—an excellent kitchen tool all around.

The Zulay Kitchen Stainless Steel Garlic Press Rocker Set is a small but mighty upgrade to my kitchen routine. Instead of struggling with traditional garlic presses or sticky chopping boards, this rocker-style tool makes mincing garlic fast, clean, and oddly satisfying.The stainless steel construction feels solid and durable—no bending or rusting here. Just place a clove under the curved blade, press down with a gentle rocking motion, and voilà: perfectly minced garlic in seconds. The included scraper and silicone peeler are thoughtful additions that make cleanup and prep even easier.What I love most is how it turns a messy task into a smooth ritual. No more garlic-scented fingers or wasted cloves. It’s efficient, easy to clean, and looks sleek enough to leave on the counter.If you cook often and want to simplify your prep without sacrificing flavor, this set is a no-brainer.

TL;DR This is a handy device as long as you use it a certain way to reduce cleanup, are willing to prep your garlic more than product suggests for consistent results, keep all these separate parts together in your kitchen, and need to process at least a few cloves but much less than what you’d use a food processor for.First off, it works much better than the garlic presses (that extrudes into paste-like minced pieces) that I’ve owned. I can go through garlic without having to re-feed it like I had to with my previous presses.==If you like that chunky paste-like consistency, this won’t be the device for you as the holes are large enough to make “near fine” chopped pieces.Now this device isn’t perfect. I haven’t nailed a pattern yet but I’ve had difficulty for some garlic cloves to be “chopped” with the rocker. Whether it’s due to a clove size, shape, age, outer skin toughness/moisture level, “smoothness” or a combination of those, it just mushes it and spreads out under the rocker instead of pushed through the holes.==To have better overall results, before using the rocker, slice the clove in half lengthwise. Using the rocker on the sliced side seems to give the holes a better grip as it gets pressed through. It isn’t what the video shows, but either they enhanced the “grip” of those cloves (maybe by making skin deep cuts) or they had “perfect cloves” for the device demo. Whatever the case, not all cloves will work perfectly with this device and may need one extra step if that’s the case. My first point still stands even with the extra slice step.Now for my major gripes:==Cleaning it still is a pain even with the brush. More often than not, I have to use the back end to pop the pieces out of the holes. Even with the sink spray nozzle, I usually can’t force all the pieces out. (Watery mess all over the sink though) To minimize clean up, I have to be accurate and go through all the garlic I need with as little of the rocker as possible. Basically, whatever time this rocker saves from manually chopping a few cloves easily goes into cleaning it. * A previous garlic press I owned had a grid of cylinders to push garlic out of the holes and cleans itself quite efficiently. Wish this rocker had something like that. With this in mind, there is a tipping point where using a food processor is more efficient and cleans easier.==This device pretty much requires all the other parts to function and be maintained efficiently but doesn’t have a way to keep them together. Sure the garlic “blade” can be substituted with the back of your knife but that brush/pick is needed to clean it. So if you lose it, you’ll have to keep toothpicks and maybe a toothbrush handy.Be sure to consider your general needs and whether the benefits outweigh the detriments before buying.
