Product Description
Designed to work right or left handed, the Rotary Grater puts a new spin on an old idea. It combines a razor-sharp Microplane blade with the ease, safety, and portability of a rotary grater, making the fine grating of tough ingredients easier than ever. Includes coarse and fine blades. Dishwasher safe. Product Details Choose between black, empire red, and white. Grating Area: 12.72 in, Overall Length: 7", Overall Width: 5" Materials: Blades made of surgical grade stainless steel. Plastic body. Care & Cleaning Dishwasher safe. We recommend rinsing your grater in warm water immediately after each use. Remove particles stuck in the blade from the back side whenever possible. To remove "stuck on food" from the front, first soak the tool in warm water and then use a cleaning brush and stroke in the same direction as the teeth. Store with blades covered when not in use.

Grate for parmessan! April 21, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I've had this for about a year and love it. I only use it for grating parmessan. After each use, I simply put the grater back in a big ziplock bag along with the remaining parmessan and put the bag in the fridge, so it's all handy for the next use. After a couple blocks of parmessan, I take the grater apart and put it through the dishwasher before using it again. You wouldn't want to clean it after every use.

Be sure you put it together so that you can use the hand you want to turn the crank - and crank direction you prefer - for maximum ease. It can go together numerous ways - for righties and lefties - so pick the arrangement of barrel and crank that's easiest for you.

Microplane Rotary Grater December 31, 2007

I was disappointed by the flimsy nature of this product when being used with hard cheeses. Why not make the body more reinforced in order to not flex when being used? The actual grater mechanism did an excellent job cutting the cheese, but when the body flexes in your hands as you are using it, so much effort is being wasted instead of being transferred into grating that cheese!

Flimsy, not up to Microplane standards March 24, 2007

I used this once. All the cheese stayed inside the drum, and I had to take the grater apart to remove the cheese. The plastic bent while it was being used on your basic supermarket cheddar, not a very hard cheese. After one use I threw it out.

Great grater! February 9, 2007

I've been using my coffee grinder for grating almonds but wasn't getting the result I looked for. The Microplane grater is perfect and is also versatile in that there are two sizes of grate, and it is equally efficient for left-handed users. Really nice item.

Great cheeze grater, super sharp blades do a great job, very good for people with difficulties in their hands.
