Board stays usable

I used to mince garlic with a knife and then spend extra time wiping the board. I have had this chopper about a month and use it most weeknights. A few presses and the cloves are in the cup. The board is still dry enough to keep chopping. The plunger can stick if I overload it, so I keep batches small. I used to mince garlic with a knife and then spend extra time wiping the board.

Faster than my knife

I cook pasta a few nights a week and garlic was always the slow part. After two weeks with this, I press instead of chopping. The mince looks even enough for sauce. Cleanup is taking it apart and rinsing, which is quicker than washing a sticky knife. I cook pasta a few nights a week and garlic was always the slow part.

Fits the drawer

Our kitchen is small so I care about what stays on the counter. This sits in a drawer at 8.9 inches. I have used it for garlic and a handful of herbs. It is not a food processor, and that is fine. I just wanted less mess after dinner. Our kitchen is small so I care about what stays on the counter. This sits in a drawer at 8.9 inches. I have used it for garlic and a handful of herbs.

Rinse and done

I take it apart after I cook and rinse the cup and blades. That was the part I worried about. Three weeks in, it still feels simple. I mince garlic for stir-fry and the pieces come out even. I wish the cup were a little larger, but it works for two people. I take it apart after I cook and rinse the cup and blades. That was the part I worried about. Three weeks in, it still feels simple.

Hands stay cleaner

Garlic on my fingers used to linger through the evening. Now I press cloves in the cup and dump them in the pan. I have had it since last month. Onions work too when I cut them small first. It lives next to the salt because I reach for it that often. Garlic on my fingers used to linger through the evening. Now I press cloves in the cup and dump them in the pan.
