Product Description
Experience the the delicious aroma and flavor of fresh pressed garlic. One step is all it takes to extract the finest garlic flavor. Simply place a clove - skin and all - into the basket and press the comfortable nylon plastic/stainless steel handle that cushions your hand as you work. Cleaning is just as easy - just flip the handle back the other way to flush out the skin. Great for pressing ginger as well! Five-year limited warranty.

Amazon.com Review
Add quick flavor to pasta sauces or cooked vegetables with a little squeeze of garlic from this easy-to-use garlic press. Designed to be functional as well as fashionable, the press is made of durable stainless steel and has ergonomic handles made of comfortable molded plastic with stainless-steel accents. The "basket" that contains the garlic is removable for more thorough cleaning, and slides right back in for crushing more cloves. The press is dishwasher-safe, and has an eye for hanging from a toolbar. This Cuisinart kitchen tool is covered by a five-year, limited warranty. --Cristina Vaamonde

1 out of 5 stars poor design   June 3, 2008

I bought it because I trusted Cuisinart, but that was a mistake in this case. The basket falls out every time you try to use it. It would be ok for someone with 4 hands, if that person didn't mind getting garlic all over them. I have thought about finding a way to attach the basket, because it does exert a lot of pressure on the garlic, but the garbage can is the real solution for this failure. Don't buy it.

I already reviewed the red press however I thought I better review this one as well. Katz from Philly, below, beat me to it. Please read both reviews--this is a poorly designed product, My original review for the red press:
I bought the Cuisinart for the name. Big mistake. After mashing the garlic, the little basket is consistently pulled out and PLOP! falls right into the food you merely wanted garlic in. So....if it falls into very hot olive oil, it can splash onto your hand and you have to quickly find something to pull the basket out of the oil. Bottom line, be forewarned----clever design in the boardroom, very poor design for the kitchen!

This garlic press does not function on two levels...
1.The garlic "basket" comes out with every press therefore you have to reinsert the basket with every pressing.
2. The handles touch each other before you can execute a FULL PRESS..So there is always garlic in the basket that is wasted.
One plus is that it looks good...
