5.0 out of 5 stars simply the best for parmesan, May 12, 2007

This review is from: Zyliss 11370 Classic Rotary-Style Cheese Grater (Kitchen)

I bought my first about seven years ago and when the handle finally broke lately (from lots and lots of use), I was shocked that I had trouble finding it in the stores. Not sure why my standard cookware stores (like William Sonoma, let alone Target!) didn't carry it. I bought my original at William Sonoma. WS had a different one I bought which turned out to be useless for parmesan and it cost $8 more than the Zyliss I ultimately found and bought. It does the job for parmesan - grates finely and evenly. easy to clean. good for any of the harder cheeses and you can use it at the table. highly recommend it. I ordered it online.

4.0 out of 5 stars A nice little grater, March 24, 2007

This review is from: Zyliss 11370 Classic Rotary-Style Cheese Grater (Kitchen)

The only problem I have with this is that it doesn't come with several different grating sizes... it only shreds finely, not coarsely. But otherwise, I like the detachable handle and the ease of use. Also, it's not good at all for softer cheeses, such as cheddar or mozzarella. However, it is easy to use and easy to clean (in dishwasher or by hand).
