As a first-time garlic press user, I can't compare it with others, but this garlic press does its job adequately. It's quite handy and gets the garlic pressed effectively. However, I did find it a bit heavy to press, which can be tiring after using it for a while.

Cleaning this garlic press is also a bit of a challenge. I have to scrub it vigorously, and sometimes I need to soak it overnight to get it completely clean. Additionally, after pressing the garlic, I often need to use a small knife to clear out the remaining bits, which can be a bit inconvenient. Overall, it's functional but could use some improvements in terms of weight and ease of cleaning.
