Amazon.com Review

This 18/10 stainless-steel cheese grater manually grates small amounts of hard cheese, chocolate, or nutmeg. The grater includes one drum which easily inserts into place by releasing a latch just below the hopper. To grate, food goes into the top of the hopper and you apply some pressure on the holder as you turn the handle. The grater blade deposits your ground food out of the bottom of the hopper. This grater is dishwasher-safe. --Cristina Vaamonde

At first I was pretty happy with the grater, but after a few days of use I started to notice that I was getting small shavings of metal as well as shredded cheese. I am no longer using it and would not recomend it to anyone.

This grater really does not work as advertised. Harder cheeses take forever to grind and soft ones get stuck in the grating tube. Try a different grater - this one ain't work the 20 bucks.

This review is from: MIU Stainless-Steel Rotary Cheese Grater (Kitchen)

Well, I'm not terribly impressed with this metal rotary grater. Yes, it will grate cheese, but the gap between the drum and compartment that holds the cheese is a little over 1/4 of an inch. This allows for the cheese to get 'gummed' up and eventually that large wad just falls through. Also, for harder cheeses this means you're constanty picking out chunks of cheese that should have been grated.

I've yet to find a rotary grater I'm happy with. I've broken several plastic models within 2 days of owning them. While I've yet to break this metal model, it just doesn't perfrom very well. I'm still using my stand-up grater.
