This is not exactly mine but it's a good example because you can easily see the reverse-push part with the nubbins. I have had ones where that's metal rather than silicone and they were fine, and you don't need fat handles unless you have grip problems. In the olden days (pre 1980?) I had the kind where you have to dig out the shreds with a knife and I can definitely see why you'd switch to just using the knife!
I've just gone down a rabbit hole of garlic presses and I struggle to find any that look as poorly designed as mine!
Oh honey, time to recycle that sucker! Don't donate it, that would only bring misery to someone else. Go on chopping or squashing your garlic if you prefer, though. I respect it even though I prefer to press mine.
