Faringdon 5cm Metal Garlic Press With Cherry Destoner

Stylish. Easy to use, easy to clean

Really flimsy, tried to crush some garlic gloves and they came through the top, I also washed in dishwasher and it turned dark grey

Works just fine Not for the every day use but for home use in this is perfectly fine

Bought this as a replacement for a much loved garlic press… because I had accidentally put it in the dishwasher… don’t do this with aluminium as it will turn go black! Thought it would be identical to my previous garlic crusher but it is more flimsy design. The holes are not as large and so makes it hard to press the garlic through. When pressing, the arms feel flimsy like they could snap if you press too hard.

This does its job… the quality isn’t great. It’s made of aluminium; it’s light and easy to use. Some garlic is wasted around the edges, and quite frankly I would much rather crush with the blade of an old knife. I am sure there are better garlic crushers out there. As other reviewers have pointed out, don’t put it in the dishwasher – aluminium and dishwasher detergent don’t mix! Having said that, the entry clearly states that it is made of aluminium.

Good for garlic... easy for chopping and can use long time because he cannot breakdown

Not up to the task. Tinny.

Received promptly but I'm not sure it's durable enough as it feels rather wobbly. I will be interested to see how long my student son has it.
