Zest For Decades

High quality and sturdy product. The protective plastic cover sleeve is a nice addition for storage. Very prompt delivery and communications by the seller.

Take the worry out of Zesting

Nice product. Simple and effective. We are doing Blue Apron so we are cooking home a lot more. This is the perfect tool for limes, lemons, even garlic and cheeses too. Works exactly as advertised and a great price too.

Love lemon zesting!

Great price for a multi use tool. I like the plastic cover so it doesn’t scrape when digging through my drawer of tools.

Is this considered a "microplane" grater? I can't tell from the pictures compared to the others that actually say microplane...thank you -

I am not sure the definition of microplane but it grates very finely. I use it to zest lemon and grate nutmeg. I think it works "grate"! Well worth the money.

Good zesting tool

I've used this for lemon zest and it works great.…

Zesting

I have used my zester twice already and I must say that I love it! It's sturdy & we'll designed...

Zest for Zester

Deiss Pro Lemon Zester is great. We love it.

This worked great for zesting lemons

This worked great for zesting lemons. It is very sharp and easy to clean just so you remember to wipe or brush in the opposite way you zest.…

Perfect for zesting! Look no further!!

This is absolutely the best product I have found for zesting!!…

Do you think this produces zest that's just as fine as a more expensive Microplane? I love zest but don't like to know it's there - lol.

The zest is very fine.

What is the size this grates: fine, medium, coarse?

Very fine zest, perfect for cooking

Best way to zest!

easy to use and equally easy to clean!

a gift that solved the zesting issue.

Very well made. Bought this as a gift for a person that has arthritic hands. Very easy for her to grip and use. Thankyou

perfect for cheese and zesting

Strong, reliable, perfect for cheese and zesting

solid grater

very pleased w/this grater. all sides do different things - the large box grater, zesting, works great. easy to hold, solid.

Great grater!

…Just used it to zest some lemons for a cake I baked and it did a great job!

Five Stars

…Works quite well for shredding and zesting

Is this good for a lemon zester? Or should I buy a microplane?

Depends what you want the zest for. If it's for flavor in a recipe, you definately want to use this product. Pulped zest gives intense flavor. If it's for decorative zest, use a microplaner.

Are the cutting surfaces icroplan quality?

Microplane? Yes. It has served me well with parm cheese and lemon and lime zest. I haven’t had the occasion to use the slicing feature, but I’m sure it will work just as well.

Use it and throw it in the dishwasher.

Non slip. versatile, just right for a lot of zest!

Versatile and High Quality Grater

Sharp blades, easy to hold, and gives you a wide range of options from zesting lemons to grating and slicing large blocks of cheese.…

Easy to use

Looking for an easier way to zest lemmons this works great.…

I see cucmbers pictured, does it also slice potao's ?

I haven't tried it yet. I bet it would. I zested a lemon in no time. Shredded cheese. It appears to be stainless steel, very sturdy. Haven't used dishwasher for it, thought better do by hand to make it last longer.

Does the grater work efficiently? And how well does it grate different things? Is it sharp enough?

I like the grater because I can hold it from the top and the produce will be contained in the middle. It has proven to be sharp on all sides. The rubber on the bottom holds it and does not scratch. I have used it for every thing from lemon zest, cheese, carrots, and sliced beets. Really like this product

Best Zest!

Best zester ever! Sharp, pretty safe, comfortable, quick and easy. Doesn't get any better. Chefs use this brand for a reason.

Great for Zesting!

As a zester, it works great! It also functions very well as a grater. I should have purchased one long ago. Just be careful when using and washing it, because it is extremely sharp.

Great for zesting!

A recipe I received recommended using a Microplane for zesting and I had no idea what it was. …It zests fruit beautifully - light, flavorful shreds...I highly recommend it!

Which Microplane zester works best for zesting lemons? Not sure whether to order classic or premium zester. Thanks

I ordered Premium and it is perfect for zesting lemon

Is this a good tool for grating fresh ginger and turmeric?

Not sure, but it's splendid for zesting oranges and grating cheese.

KN
Zest and go

Easy everything. I wish I bought this ages ago.

Zests nicely

I gave it to my niece as a gift. She uses it often and it works very well.

Zest!

Works perfect for zesting fruits.

Is this good for garlic?

Effortlessly grate and zest your favorite foods with the Microplane Premium Zester with Black Handle. Professional quality comes home with a premium soft-touch handle and non-scratch end tabs that make this product an upgrade from the classic Microplane Zester. Easily zest and create garnishes from fruits to add on top of baked goods or to accent a favorite cocktail or beverage! A corrosion resistant, surgical-grade stainless steel grating blade ensures that even the most solid of cheeses can still be grated, shredded, and zested. The lightweight (4 Oz.) design makes this zester/grater ideal for safe and simple use each and every time! Dishwasher safe.

Is the rubber 'feet' removable?

Not sure what you mean by "feet", but I can tell you that this is an excellent product. I've had many zesters that just do not "zest", but this one does a great job.

Looking for a new grater? Our kitchen experts bought and tested the top 10 graters available in 2021 and put them through a rigorous side by side comparison to find the very best. We compared cheese shreds and citrus zests to discover the sharpest coarse graters and the best zesters, grating through potatoes, beets, hard cheeses, and more. Our recommendations can help you find the perfect grater for your needs and budget.
The Cuisipro Surface Glide 4-Sided Box Grater is the best grater we’ve found after testing 34 of them over three years.
Graters are sometimes called shredders, choppers or slicers. Their main job is to quickly cut up various foods into smaller pieces without much effort, so they either melt faster in a recipe or are more bite-sized and easier to chew. The two biggest graters on the market are the box grater, which sits firmly on a countertop or a cutting board, and a handheld grater, which can be suspended over a frying pan or plate of food.
