I never had any interest in becoming a chef, but if someone had told me that cooking could be as much fun as playing with Hot Wheels cars when I was younger, it would have probably jumped to the top of my ‘What I Want To Be When I Grow Up’ list. (Even ahead of freelance firefighter and caveman.) To use the Chef’n Garlic Zoom you simply open the trapdoor on top, insert a couple of peeled garlic cloves and then roll the device around on your kitchen counter. A set of stainless steel blades chops up the garlic, and the see-through acrylic body allows you to keep an eye on how finely the garlic gets chopped. Best of all, it helps keep the smell of garlic off your hands and your cutting board.
You can find it on Amazon.com for just $9.75.

In my opinion the Zyliss Susi2 is a better gadget, it’s probably faster and you don’t have to remove the husk. With the RGC you’d have to de-husk the cloves first meaning some skin contact if that is an issue for you. With the ZS2 you just pop a clove or two in and squeeze out garlic “paste”, then remove the husks and repeat until someone complains about to much garlic:-jmw
