Joseph Joseph Helix Garlic Press, easy crush action, dishwasher safe - Green, 24

Highly recommended product. Easy to use and clean, well designed, sturdy.

This is simply the best garlic press I’ve ever owned. I think it’s owed to the design of the pressing mechanism, but it just makes pressing garlic so easy!! Yes, there is a little bit of garlic left in the bottom - but that happens with all presses I’ve tried, and if you just smoosh it around a bit you can press through again. Easy to clean too.

I bought one of these about 10 years ago (from a brick and mortar shop - remember them?) and I've used it most days since then. The press is in two parts - one part is where you add your garlic bulb (it can be peeled or not peeled). The other part is what is used to apply the pressure to crush the garlic. It uses a very simply corkscrew mechanism, starting with two lugs on one part to guide the two parts together to crush the garlic bulb. It's the best garlic crusher I've come across. It's dishwasher safe. You can use it to crush root ginger as well. This purchase is for a friend.

Great gadget- only problem leaves some of the clove uncrushed up the sides of the plunger but would still recommend

Best garlic press I've ever had, and my husband loves it as a pill crusher - so much so he's bought one himself for his pills.

Great product as always from Joseph & Joseph works really well great ergonomic design easy clean highly recommend

Such an easy garlic press to get as much from each bulb as possible

So I ordered this without really looking at the reviews, Joseph Joseph products are usually pretty good and I needed a new garlic press as my existing one was terrible. I read some reviews after I ordered it and was slightly put off by some of the bad ones. Don’t listen to the bad reviews, this garlic press is great - definitely the best one I’ve had (and I’ve had a few). You can get a number of garlic cloves in it so you don’t have to operate it as many times as usual if you’re using a lot, which I generally do. Figuring out how to actually use it first time is probably the only down side but when you’ve got it you’ve got it, that’ll only happen once. The mechanism is really effective and prevents garlic from squishing back out of the top of the press which virtually every press I’ve had before has done. Yes, 100% of the garlic isn’t pressed through and a very small amount is left after each operation, but no big deal. It’s not difficult to clean out after, I use the handle end of a teaspoon to scrape any remnants of a garlic out of the device, then straight in the dishwasher. Job done.

Not effective, not practical. Was broken after few days.

After reading reviews of other brands, I decided to get this one. The twisting mechanism is much better than other brands which parts are easily broken or snapped when you apply force to squeeze the garlic. The colour, design and material of Joseph Joseph are all good. Used three times so far. Hope it will last.

Ich hatte diese Knoblauchpresse bereits und war lange auf der Suche nach dieser Super-Presse, da ich sie für mich die beste Presse ist, die ich je hatte. Einfach zu bedienen und einfach zu reinigen. Was will man mehr?

I've had this for a few months now and I couldn't be happier! This mechanism is ingenious and so easy to use. I had a ratcheting garlic press for years that I loved because I have sore, stiff weak hands. But other people would break by over ratcheting and pushing it through the faceplate. They stopped making it and the search for a new one began. So I have tried many different garlic presses over the years and nothing compares to this one by Joseph Joseph. I love it! I want to own the lemon squeezer, and the potato ricer and I don't even rice potatoes! But it is just that brilliant. Companys will be copying this design as soon as patents are off! This item would be great for anybody, but it would be especially great for anyone who suffers with arthritis, chronic pain, or anything else where you have problems with your and arms shoulders and or, upper back ... it is just so easy to use. Smiply line up the red dots and then squeeze using all of your upper body in a fluid motion, no effort or strain on your hands, wrist or shoulders. There is little to no resistance, no matter how many cloves are in there. But don't overfill to the point where the cloves come out the top. The threads have to be able to get started. If you want more than 3-4 cloves at a time it easy to reload and you don't even have to clear out the last bits of garlic. Pros ✅Easy to use ✅Easy to clean ✅Can crush several cloves at once with no extra effort ✅Efficient use of garlic with little waste ✅Great color ✅Durable materials ✅Very well engineered Cons: Joseph Joseph doesn't design everything I need in my life! I'm loving the quality and design they put into all of their products! I'm slowly replacing everything in my kitchen with their stuff. It started with their Totem garbage can, and I was just blown away by it! Buy it, then buy one for a friend ... everything in life should be this easy and straight forward to use and maintain! I hope you like my review!

I absolutely love it, super easy to use and to clean. It fits a lot of cloves per use which to me is perfect. Also it's nice that it has two separate parts and that reduces the risk of breaking.
