I was once asked in a job interview to describe my favourite product.
“My Kuhn Rikon garlic press.” I answered without hesitation.
My interviewer paused for a moment. “Wow, well that’s the first time I’ve ever heard that as an answer before.”
Did I mention I was interviewing at a tech company?
Ok, so I didn’t get the job (they pulled the position), but nonetheless, I stand by my answer. And I think there are lessons a company can learn from a product like that.
What makes this garlic press so awesome? 5 things.
It’s simple.
It’s durable.
It’s effortless to use.
It does a kick-ass job on it’s primary function. (cranking out crushed garlic effortlessly)
It’s beautiful to look at.
‘Nuf said. 🙂
p.s. serious – if you’re on the search for a garlic press – look no further. This is the best one out there. It’s so hardcore it’s doubled as a hammer for me. More than once. Gotta hammer that point in. 🙂
