Leifheit has protected its successful Knobi King garlic rocker with a registered design right valid throughout the EU (so-called Community design). The practical stainless steel kitchen aid sits comfortably in the hand thanks to its ergonomic design. The punched perforated plate ensures that garlic cloves are not crushed but cut into very small cubes. Numerous imitators from all over the world clumsily copy the popular design 1:1. The imitations are usually sold at a fraction of the original price and in correspondingly inferior quality, sometimes with a risk of infringement. To protect its brand and to protect consumers, Leifheit consistently warns imitators and has the infringing (online) offers deleted. Imitation is therefore not worthwhile.
