Rosle 18/10 Stainless Steel Coarse Grater

Excellent grater
I bought this grater after reading the reviews from Cooks Illustrated magazine. It is very functional and serves the purpose of my former stand up grater. It takes up less space and is designed to work with any size bowl. Highly recommend. Just wish Amazon carried it so I did not have to pay shipping.

Absolutely worth the money
I felt a little silly paying this much for a grater but after years of frustration trying to grate carrots or cheese with inexpensive and/or poorly-designed kitchen tools, I gave it a try. This grater is worth every penny -- sharp, solid, heavy and fits well over a medium mixing bowl. Did I mention it's sharp? It's not just sharp, it's really sharp, sharp enough to slice a chunk out of your knuckle if you're careless, which I was the first time I used it since I was used to duller graters. (It wouldn't hurt to invest in a cut-resistant glove, just to be safe -- I'm ordering one today.) But since sharpness is the point of a grater, I'm not complaining and would highly recommend this product.

Amazing grater.
This grates cheese like no other. I can take a two pound brick of cheese down in about a minute. Potatoes go even quicker. This is a production quality, professional tool. The only way to grate any quicker would be with a food processor. Be very, very, very careful. It will grate so fast that you will grate your fingers before you know it. I've done it.... twice! And it doesn't just make a little cut on you and bind up. It takes an unbelievable gouge out of your finger. Without getting any more graphic, let me just say that you should wear a cut glove or leather glove until you get the hang of it on different foods. I am serious. That and stop grating long before your fingers get close to the grater. In one pass, you can go from thinking your fingers are a safe distance, to becoming part of the meal. Do not let children use this! Keep your crappy old grater for ANYONE else who wants to help you in the kitchen.

Zyliss Mini Food Processor, White

Does everything the big boys do and no power required!
I bought this grater when I had an old food processor when all the attachments were broken and I needed finely chopped or grated nuts for my sweets. It is very easy and comfortable to use, thanks to the suction foot that is surprisingly strong for the small size. You just position the grater on a clean surface and turn the lever to block it, then you can choose the drum you need and place it in the grater, screw the handle on and get grating!
There are three drums in the package: slicing, fine grating and coarse grating. You can slice cucumbers for a salad or zucchini for a quiche or anything you want. Or you can finely grate hard cheese like Parmesan, chocolate or nuts: I have used it a number of times for these tasks and I am really satisfied, nuts fine as snow and fluffy Parmesan; you will not touch the chocolate so it doesn't melt on your hands while you are grating. Or maybe you feel like zucchini cheddar waffles and you can coarsely grate both in no time.

The clean up is...

Great for older hands
I love this product. I have been losing strength in my hands, and all of my other graters were either too difficult to squeeze the handle that presses the food and turn the handle OR they were flimsy and resulted in too many lost fingernails (several near misses on losing skin too). This is just what I needed. It's easy to use and easy to clean. Great price, great product. I recommend this if you have weak hands, and/or long fingernails. If you have neither but know someone who loves to cook and would appreciate an easy to use, convenient to clean and well made gagdet, it would make a great gift.

Long sought walnut grater that works perfectly!
I love to make (and eat) deserts that call for greated walnuts and occasionally haselnuts. Not chopped, and not creamed mind you, but a fluffy pile of fine grated nuts that doesn't feel greasy or soggy to add to deserts and cereal. I couldn't find a grater that would do this for a long time until finally, a friend of mine got this product for me. The finest grater barell is used for this, and if this gadget did this alone, it would still be more than worth it to me to pay much more for it then currently @19.99 price.

However, there are two other barrels that work wonderfully too. The larger grater is fantastic for carrots. I tried it with apples too, and it also works very well, but it is better with carrots. The white plastic is stained orange from carrots though, but this doesn't bother me since it works so incredibly great for grating them and I store the unit in the cupboard so I don't care how it looks like as long as it works well. The slicer barrel I have tried with...
