Vantic Garlic Press Rocker – Stainless Steel Garlic Crusher, Mincer and Chopper with Peeler & Scraper, Easy Kitchen Gadget for Effortless Smashing

Super Clean and Straightforward!
This makes fresh minced garlic worth it! I mean, honestly. Much of the other garlic mincers out there are “cool” but unnecessarily complicated to clean. This product, is thankfully not only efficient in doing its job, it is easy to clean and take care of without the extra hassle around it. Family was actually impressed and asked if they could “borrow” it… lol

Useful, but there are caveats to consider
TL;DR This is a handy device as long as you use it a certain way to reduce cleanup, are willing to prep your garlic more than product suggests for consistent results, keep all these separate parts together in your kitchen, and need to process at least a few cloves but much less than what you’d use a food processor for.First off, it works much better than the garlic presses (that extrudes into paste-like minced pieces) that I’ve owned. I can go through garlic without having to re-feed it like I had to with my previous presses.==If you like that chunky paste-like consistency, this won’t be the device for you as the holes are large enough to make “near fine” chopped pieces.Now this device isn’t perfect. I haven’t nailed a pattern yet but I’ve had difficulty for some garlic cloves to be “chopped” with the rocker. Whether it’s due to a clove size, shape, age, outer skin toughness/moisture level, “smoothness” or a combination of those, it just mushes it and spreads out under the rocker instead of pushed through the holes.==To have better overall results, before using the rocker, slice the clove in half lengthwise. Using the rocker on the sliced side seems to give the holes a better grip as it gets pressed through. It isn’t what the video shows, but either they enhanced the “grip” of those cloves (maybe by making skin deep cuts) or they had “perfect cloves” for the device demo. Whatever the case, not all cloves will work perfectly with this device and may need one extra step if that’s the case. My first point still stands even with the extra slice step.Now for my major gripes:==Cleaning it still is a pain even with the brush. More often than not, I have to use the back end to pop the pieces out of the holes. Even with the sink spray nozzle, I usually can’t force all the pieces out. (Watery mess all over the sink though) To minimize clean up, I have to be accurate and go through all the garlic I need with as little of the rocker as possible. Basically, whatever time this rocker saves from manually chopping a few cloves easily goes into cleaning it. * A previous garlic press I owned had a grid of cylinders to push garlic out of the holes and cleans itself quite efficiently. Wish this rocker had something like that. With this in mind, there is a tipping point where using a food processor is more efficient and cleans easier.==This device pretty much requires all the other parts to function and be maintained efficiently but doesn’t have a way to keep them together. Sure the garlic “blade” can be substituted with the back of your knife but that brush/pick is needed to clean it. So if you lose it, you’ll have to keep toothpicks and maybe a toothbrush handy.Be sure to consider your general needs and whether the benefits outweigh the detriments before buying.

Not impressed: too dull
I found this garlic press too dull to cut the garlic effectively. It mostly smashed the garlic and I had to try multiple times to get the garlic to mince. It involved great effort for little benefit.

Hard pass….
Loved this for about six months then the metal part fell off the side with this sticky glue exposed. Won’t stay on and I can’t use it anymore. Won’t buy again. Strongly recommend finding one that is all one piece. Parts that fall off are annoying, messy and not usable.

I’ve used my fair share of garlic presses, but the Vantic Stainless Steel Garlic Press Rocker is a complete game changer! If you love cooking with fresh garlic (and who doesn’t?), this tool is an absolute must-have in your kitchen.Innovative Design:The rocker design is brilliant. Instead of the usual press-down motion, all you need to do is rock it back and forth over the garlic, and it crushes effortlessly. The motion feels natural and requires minimal effort, even for multiple cloves at once. It’s so much easier on the wrists, especially when you’re prepping for big meals.Premium Stainless Steel Construction:The quality of the stainless steel is top-notch — it’s sturdy, doesn’t bend, and feels like it’ll last for years. I appreciate how it resists rusting and won’t absorb odors or stain, unlike some garlic presses I’ve used in the past. Plus, it has a sleek, modern look that fits perfectly with my kitchen gadgets.Easy to Use and Clean:What really sets this apart is how easy it is to clean. The garlic doesn’t get stuck inside, and the design makes it simple to rinse under water or pop it in the dishwasher. No complicated nooks or crannies to worry about — just quick, hassle-free cleaning. It’s a small thing, but it makes a huge difference.Great for More Than Just Garlic:I’ve also used it to crush ginger and small amounts of herbs, and it works wonderfully for those too. It’s so versatile, which makes it a great all-around kitchen tool.Final Thoughts:The Vantic Stainless Steel Garlic Press Rocker has truly made garlic prep a breeze. Whether you’re cooking a quick weeknight dinner or preparing a fancy feast, it’s the easiest, most efficient way to get perfectly crushed garlic every time. It’s durable, easy to clean, and actually fun to use. If you love garlic as much as I do, don’t wait to grab one — it’s a total kitchen essential! 🧄

This press works well. You absolutely HAVE to use fresh garlic. If your garlic is getting even a little old, it will not crush it properly and you will get a big chunk of garlic skin only. It does take more pressure than I was expecting. Cleanup is fairly easy. The best part of this is the skin remover tube. That works so well!I would buy again.

We have gone thru so many garlic presses and this is the BEST ONE EVER. So easy to use.
