Hi Dave,
That would work. We recently replaced our garlic chopper, one we'd
bought years ago at William's Sonoma, a smaller version of your "ASOTV" chopper. Found a little round one at Cracker Barrel so got one for
home, one for the camper.
I'm more likely to use the garlic press then chop with a knife.
Depends on how I want the garlic and how much I need. I've a press I
inherited from my grandmother but sometimes that's too hard on the
wrists. The old chopper had a part for doing diced, one for slices, new
one is just diced. Sometimes, if I'm using the chef's knife for other
cutting, I'll peel the garlic and smash it with the chef's knife, doing
a bit more chopping for a finer chop. I'll peel, then slice with a
paring knife sometimes as well.
I've got a couple of full-size onion choppers and I finally broke down
and bought a mandoline. Promptly tried to cut the tip off f a finger
when slicing potatoes for a pot roast in the casserole crockpot. That
was a true learning experience. Bv)=
Ouch! I have a mandoline but most often end up slicing with a knife.
If just doing 1 'tater or a single onion I'll use a knife. If I'm into quantity, out comes the mandoline. Such as in this recipe ...

Very often, even for this amount, I'll pull out the chef's knife and use
it. We also have a small (Rada) santoku that I'll use for smaller chop
jobs.
