OXO Good Grips Garlic Slicer,White

Makes even slices that are perfect for recipes because they cook uniformly. Fast and easy to do and clean up is a breeze.

I've had several versions of a garlic slicer.This is by far the best.Not too surprising, as oxo needs to have a good design philosophy.This slices in both directions, as the blade is double-edged.The slices are clean, thin and consistent - the reason you would use this device.Its guard holds the garlic appropriately with an insert that you apply a bit of constant pressure on.That guard also stores on the unit itself (at a 90-degree angle, it has a very solid clip in system), so it can store well as a single unit.It cleans up easily.My one (tiny) nit is that the plunger stays in with a bit of a friction fit rather than a clip - but It doesn't slide out too easily.

This gadget works great for slicing a lot of garlic quickly and very thin.

Easy to use, easy to clean, gives great results, protect your fingers, highly recommend recommended

This replaced another brand garlic slicer that hasn't worked well since the day I got it. This slicer immediately performed very well. I particularly love the double sided blade it has and the uniform paper thin slices it produces. I will be putting it through its paces yearly when it slices 40-50 bulbs with 7-12 cloves each in order to dehydrate all. Even if it only takes 2 cloves at a time, it operates so quickly that it should cut my time for this annual job significantly. The blade doesn't look like it can be replaced though, so, until I know how long the double blade lasts, I can't give it a five star yet.

Wow Awesome slicer for the little jobs in the kitchen. Slices evenly, quickly and most of all safely! No more finger slicing. This appears to be durable, It is washable and I have put mine in the dishwasher as well as hand washed. The item is substantial enough to allow for slicing without bending as you put weight and motion to the slicing. Very happy with this purchase.

This is a very handy little kitchen tool that I use constantly. It is simple to use, easy to clean, and does a great job creating very thin slices of garlic. I could use a knife of course, but the uniformity and thinness of the slices would not compare. I have a garlic press but I use this five times more often.

First, I have not received nor do I have any financial interest in this product.I have a garlic press purchased a few months ago and it works fine....if you want tiny pieces of garlic. Seeing the tv cooking shows always shows someone with garlic that has been thinly sliced. THIS is what I wanted so I began the search and found this OXO garlic slicer. Wow! Does the job I've been looking for. The unit is made of a high grade durable plastic that appears will hold up well with use. To use the unit, you place a clove of garlic (peeled) in the top container, place the carrier top back in, and then move the whole unit back and forth across a blade. Slices of garlic come up quite good. And the clove carrier protects your fingers from the blade. THIS is a definite plus. As you get to the end of the clove, you may or may not have a small chunk of garlic left but that is not a problem. In addition, you do use just use the weight of your hand to begin slicing. Neat, quick and to the point. To clean, just uses the sink sprayer but caution.... Do not use your fingers to clean out any garlic pieces stuck to the blade. The blade will samurai your finger tips. And I let my unit air dry. Now for the negatives. First, the garlic "carrier" is free sliding. That is, it will slide over the blade whether you are slicing garlic or not. This then leads to an EXPOSED BLADE which is sharp. Now, since the clove carrier moves freely on the "track", obviously the blade will be exposed each time you pick up the slicer or ??? Plus, the blade is also riveted in so it cannot be replaced. But again, how often would you replace such a blade? I would like to see this same unit with an ADJUSTABLE thickness AND...and a way to literally place the clove carrier over the blade and lock it in. However, since I am an adult and I do cut myself "professionally" every so often, this problem has been solved by my putting the unit in a freezer bag after the unit has been cleaned and dried. The bag keeps the unit clean, protects the blade to an extent, and I don't say bad words because I don't cut myself. Overall, yes, I give this unit a 5 star as I am very pleased with the results I get. The CONS I've indicated may or may not be considered personal preference. IF as a amateur chef, you want lotsa garlic sliced thin, this has got to be one of the better garlic slicers around. I do recommend the OXO unit as a BUY.
