ZYLISS FastCut Herb Mincer in White, 9 inches Review

I agree with others: This thing WORKS! Yes, the blades are very sharp so be careful when disassembling. The drier the grass, the better this thing works with it (when the grass is wet, it's more likely to stick to the stalks than cut it). The easiest. I use a kitchen brush to get between the blades (because the jet of hot water doesn't always wash everything off).

Poorly designed to clean. You have to twist the device to open it, but it's not that easy. Once you open the cleaner you are stuck with exposed blades on either side leaving little room for your fingers to fix. Putting the shield on is also problematic, because if you're not precise, you'll cut your fingers in no time at all. The blades are very sharp. I like the way the meat grinder works when chopping, otherwise I wouldn't buy this item. He's too dangerous to handle.

I was looking for something that would make chopping garlic easier and faster. The meat grinder corresponded to the description and the reviews I had read. Someone said they cut their finger on the blade and I thought I was being very careful so I dismissed their complaint. No, I cut my finger. VERY sharp blades stick out unprotected inside and out. Sometimes the lid falls apart, which is dangerous, and cleaning is not so easy. The rest of the meat grinder grinds perfectly. I would not buy…

After reading the pros and cons we decided it was worth a try as we always love everything Zyliss makes. Saving time with smart tools is great, but at the speed I work in the kitchen, it's inevitable. Even after becoming familiar with the mechanism and the force required, the handle was not easy to open or turn. All 4 chefs in the family decided it wasn't worth the risk to cut the veggies so they brought them back. A small lid over the sharp blades is necessary, but it seems easy to lose, and…

I'm relatively new to using fresh herbs. I used to just use fresh basil and fresh spring onions and cut the veggies up with kitchen shears. I now live in a climate where I have fresh herbs in my garden year round. Grinding or slicing fresh oregano was a difficult task, so I looked for an easier and less time-consuming method. I stumbled across this product and because of the Zyliss name I knew it would be a good buy. When I first used it, I wish I had had it in my kitchen essentials a long time
