I have a zester by Good Grips & it's so flimsy I'm afraid I'll break it every time I use it. This one is very sturdy and well made. Good value, I recommend everyone own one!

Nice grater. Works very well for zesting fruit as well as grating hard cheeses.

Like it! Light weight. Doesn't take up too much room in drawer. Works well.
Highly recommend.

This grater is too thin. Not very effective for vegetables or cheese. I am very disappointed.

I have, or HAD, one of these - the surface of the grater is very nice and sharp, but I could count on my fingers the number of times I used it before it snapped in two. I was grating parmesan at the table, so it was a rather spectacular failure. The "tang" of the grater (between the surface and the handle) is plastic and very small -- there is a metal ring around it but it provides no strength at all. I suspect this item should NOT be put into the dishwasher, despite Cuisinart's claim that it can.

It's kinda flimsy and not what I expected...doesn't zest lemons like I want it to. It takes too long when I am baking my famous lemon pound cake with lemon glaze.

I'll stick with my box grater until I try one of those other hand-held graters. Maybe a microplane is what I really wanted.

For the price it does more than you can ask. It feels as though it will break over time as the plastice doesn't feel all that strong.

However if you're willing to spend twice as much I would highly recommend buying microplane grater as these are much more durable.

Would buy again at this price though.
