Product Description

Amazon.com Review

This multigrater can be used standing upright or over any size bowl. Withtwo separate textured surfaces, grating can be coarse or fine. Smartly placed nonskid feet anchor the multigrater and provide stability and resistance to slipping and sliding. Its stainless-steel surface is dishwasher-safe; plus, it's easy to store with a snap-apart mechanism that allows it to lay flat or folded in a drawer.

The Good Grips line features durable, nonslip, flexible handles on every product. Ergonomically designed to fit the palm comfortably and softly, the pressure-absorbing processed rubber handle puts less tension on the hands while still providing an outstanding grip. Made from the same material as dishwasher gaskets, the handles are slip-proof--wet or dry--as well as dishwasher-safe. Good Grips products are moderately priced and have won the Tylenol/Arthritis Foundation Design Award. --Laurie Notaro

1.0 out of 5 stars Works until it breaks, May 9, 2000

We've tried a few of these because they look like they would be more comfortable to hold and use, and stronger, than the more common and less expensive stamped stainless steel variety. And they are. . .until the plastic gives way, and only one side remains useable. A beefier design could make this potentially good product into a good product. Until it's redesigned, spend your money elsewhere.

3.0 out of 5 stars Great grip, faulty material..., January 4, 2001

Just to add to what has already been said...

I bought mine a year and a half ago, and in that time its been handy, but nowhere near as sturdy as I would have hoped. I found I couldn't grate into a bowl unless the width accomodated the legs, so more often than not I had to grate onto a cutting board and sweep the item into a bowl.

And like everyone else's my grater suffers from flimsy plastic. I probably have a month left on mine before it breaks from all the cracks on the sides.

On the good side, both faces of the grater worked great on hard and semi-soft cheeses, vegetables, baking chocolate and even nutmeg and ginger. I loved the fact that I could throw this into the dishwasher and forget about it.

If Oxo made a stainless steel version of this, I would give it a try. Otherwise, put the money towards one that won't fracture after a while. Two stars for the design and one for the price.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best Grater I have used., May 31, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: OXO Good Grips Multi Grater (Kitchen)

I have had this grater for about 3 years. I have used it to grate both soft and hard cheeses. It handles both equally well. The best part, however, is the comfortable handle. In the past when I used box graters after grating for more then a minute, the handle would start to hurt my hand. This does not happen with this grater.
