It was fine while it lasted but it didn't last long Sep 14, 2008
By A Reader I bought this garlic press based on the Cook's Illustrated recommendation. Sure enough, it worked beautifully for a couple of months. Then the pin holding the two pieces together started coming out. That was doable, I was always able to put it back together. Until the thing simply broke - I mean that a piece of metal broke in two. I don't expect heirloom quality for $11.99 but I do expect a product to last longer than seven months of moderate use.

Great Garlic Press Jun 12, 2007
By J. Cooper We use a ton of garlic in our house and I am always looking for an easier way to chop/mince my garlic. I recently got the Trudeau press and love it. It has a nice weight in the hand ( I hate when the press feels too light) and does a good job with the mincing. Also, I was able to get more than one clove in it...another plus. It's fairly easy to clean (handle flips around to press out the sticking pieces) AND it goes into the dishwasher.

Best garlic press Aug 14, 2007
By D. Hollands I haven't used a garlic press in years, because they didn't work well and were very hard to clean. After seeing the product review in Cook's Illustrated I decided to give it a try. My days of finely mincing garlic by hand are over! This garlic press holds a lot of garlic, pushes it through without it "gooshing" up the sides and is very easy to clean. I recommend it highly!

Great garlic press Aug 23, 2007
By Paula Gaudet Can easily handle 2 unpeeled cloves at a time. A single backward flip cleans all of the fiber and peel from the press. I've tried 5 garlic presses in the past few years. This one cleans the best.

Disappointed...it was defective. Jan 24, 2008
By eileenpr

I purchased the Trudeau garlic press from amazon after seeing that Cook's Illustrated magazine rated it a Best Buy. It arrived tonight from amazon and, to my suprise, it was defective. The plastic piece that cleans the press was moving from side to side and pulling away from the metal to which it was attached. I packed it up, requested a refund from amazon, and promptly ordered the Kuhn Rikon, which was the most highly rated garlic press by Cook's Illustrated. I had chosen the Trudeau because it was less expensive, but it isn't worth the savings if it breaks on the first use. I love to cook with garlic but find cleaning a garlic press (I lost the separate blue cleaner piece on my Zyliss) a hassle -- so perhaps the Kuhn's $30+ price tag is worth it -- at least I hope so! I re-read the reviews on the Trudeau and found that another person noted the same problem. Buyer beware! 2/2/08 Update: I received my Kuhn Rikon Garlic Press in two days of ordering from the lowest-priced provider on amazon (even though I didn't pay for expedited shipping) and have used it several times since. I am VERY pleased with it. I expect this will last me a lifetime -- it's sturdy, is easy to use, and has a clever design that makes it a cinch to clean (with no parts to break or lose).
