This manual grater finely grinds cinnamon, nutmeg, garlic, or ginger with ease. Originally designed for shaving wood, the patented 18/8 stainless-steel Microplane blade has razor-sharp teeth that make grating effortless and that wont clog. The large 5-by-2-1/2-inch grating surface can handle bigger ingredients, such as large lemons for zesting, and the matching 18/8 stainless-steel frame and satin-finish offer durable support for the blade. The grater has a non-slip rubber grip just above its head to keep it steady on a tabletop during grating. A plastic safety cover is also included to keep fingers safe and to keep the blade from dulling while in storage. This grater is dishwasher-safe for easy cleaning. --Cristina Vaamonde

True story: The microplane was invented for wood working and someone - I think the inventor's wife - used it for cooking and soon the demand took off. The inventor resisted for quite awhile because, well, it wasn't wood working. Eventually he saw the error of his ways and the rest is cooking history.
The hard plastic cover that comes with it is easy to use and perfect keeping it safe while stored in your drawer. To remove the cover, simply pull it towards the handle. To replace it do the reverse motion.
Warning: These graters are very sharp so keep your precious fingers and knuckles away from the blades!
I wash mine by hand using a plastic bristle brush immediately after use. Easy to clean with just a few quick scrubs and a good rinse.
Conclusion: Spend the extra money and buy this grater. You will not regret it!
So, who get's FIVE STAR excited over a grater? Well, I do. Although I love making things from "scratch", as I get older, I find that many of my kitchen tools are becoming harder and harder to use, and at the moment, I have two (yep, two) broken wrists that required surgery and millions of shiny metal parts to fix. Both wrists are on the mend, but needless to say, both of my hands are very weak and both have very limited movement,, and at my advanced level of maturity, my doctors have told me to expect arthritis in both hands, and not to expect to ever regain full use and strength in either... So...I get really excited whenever I find something that makes my life easier.
This thing is so easy for me to use! It is perfectly balanced, the handle is just the right width and it is long enough and the rubberized foot at the end helps to hold the grater still, and at the perfect angle so that it does not slip and slide all over the cutting board like my big, clunky old box grater did. And it's easier to clean, too.
Some folks have complained about the sticky label on the back of the Microplane Professional Extra Course Grater (Wow! It took longer for me to type that than it did for me to grab my little bottle of Goo-Gone and clean the sticky residue off of the grater), but I found that peeling it slowly only left tiny goo-dots that wiped off easily with Goo-Gone, another one of those products that no home should be without.
Since I have never owned a non-professional, Home Series Microplane grater, I can't compare the two to tell you which one I like better, I can. however, tell you that this style is easier to use than the Microplane Classic design grater (the long skinny one), although I do like the rubberized handle on my Microplane Classic a little better than the stainless. With my week hands, t's easier to hold on to than the stainless steel handle. I have no idea if the "professional" is any sharper than the Classic, or the Home series graters, I do know that the design of this grater is what sets it apart from all of the others. There is little to no cost difference between the Home series and the Professional, but there is a wold of difference in the ease of use. The secret is the foot on the bottom of the Professional grater. Definitely go Pro!
Now, putting all of the praise aside, I have but one question for the makers of the Microplane Professional Graters that I am sure is weighing heavily on the minds of all who have ever purchased this product:
Three holes?
Why on earth is there a single small hole in only THREE of the four corners of this thing?
Do your produce engineers not realize that things like this make people like me CRAZY?
but...since the rest of the product is so darned nice, I guess I can live with the three hole thing...I just want you to tell me WHY?
