I don't know what all these other reviewers are complaining about.
I love this grater. I have used it many, many times since I got it.It has not rusted... If yours is rusting you may be leaving it in the dish water a long time. Or.. maybe your dishwasher is rusting it. I wash it by hand and have had no issues.The handle is easy to hold while using and it just seems to be a great grater.I use it so much that it may not last a long time, but we will see.
Update: I love this grater so much, I keep buying them and giving them away every time I visit someone struggling with a piece of junk grater. To date, I have purchased 5 of these graters and boy am I grateful for them!
This is an excellent grater! I read many reviews for graters before I settled on this one. I received an EKCO grater as a wedding gift, and it lasted and was going strong for 15 years, that's saying a lot considering I have a huge family (12 children) and we cook massive amounts of food. When that grater began to get dull, I gave it away to someone who didn't own one, to make sure that I would buy myself a new one. Of course I purchased another EKCO brand grater, that was a slightly different model than the one I had received as a wedding gift 20 years earlier, because I had been so pleased with the former grater I figured the brand must be good quality. Imagine my surprise to discover that the first time I used the grater it wasn't even as sharp as the 20 year old grater that I had just given away! Then, within a month the handle had popped off the top, and I needed another grater. So, I thought it must have been the new model, I'll get the original model again. So I searched far and wide, and bought another EKCO grater that I was sure was the sturdy, original model, and it functioned only slightly better than the other one. It was never very sharp and the plastic handle was much thinner and brittle, and cracked in half within a few months. I just continued to struggle with this one for 2 years because I couldn't find anything better and then got another. (Third time's a charm right?) This was no better than the other one, but since it was the best available in the stores in my area, i got it anyway. All the while I was bemoaning the fact that the Economy Kitchen Co (EKCO) quality had obviously gone down so much. So two years later I moved and purchased this lovely grater from Cuisinart via Amazon, and boy am I ecstatic with it! I can honestly say that it appears to be more durable and better quality than the one I received for a wedding gift! The handle is very securely riveted on, not spot welded, it is a comfortable thick size, easy to grasp, non slip, and every side of the grater is super sharp!) I've grated raw potatoes and cheese, sliced carrots and zested limes and it's worked like a charm! I saw previous complaint about the no slip ring that fits around the bottom being unsanitary. It's poppycock! You simply remove the silicone ring after each use, and rinse it off like any other kitchen utensil and dry it before putting it back on. Easy peasy! I have already recommended this grater to a few people, and I highly recommend it to you!
I'm editing my original review. I ordered this grater in April of 2016, it's now 11/13/18 it's been over 2.5 years of almost daily use and I couldn't be happier with this grater! It's still very sharp and sturdy. I accidentally melted the non slip ring around the bottom by setting it in a hot frying pan while I quickly grated something 😂 I obviously wasn't thinking clearly. So I just tossed the ring in the trash because there was no fixing it.
We needed to replace our old grater we'd had for years as it was dull and had dents that made it difficult to use. We initially opted for a cheap one from the supermarket - big mistake. It was flimsy and difficult to use, and the blades weren't even as sharp as our old, dented one had been! So I did some research, found this on Amazon - and it is exactly as the other reviews said. Truly a "great'-er - it's solid, sharp, well-made, and easy to use. The rubber on the bottom hasn't come off of ours as some others have mentioned, and it makes it grip the counter very well making it even easier to use. But even without it this grater is a good choice, it's very sharp, heavy, and the placement of the blades make it slice through whatever is needed (mainly we use it for cheese) really well. I never thought a simple grater like this could make such a difference in the kitchen, but it really does.
I finally had to retire the grater my mom got as a wedding present. We never knew what we were missing!. This grater is very ergonomic, cleans easily and functions well. I love it!
My old grater broke so I ordered this one. I have used it for soft cheeses, hard cheeses, and vegetables. It works fine. The inside is big enough for me to insert my hand to loosen the dangling cheese pieces. I've washed it in my dishwasher and by hand.
I recently purchased the Cuisinart Boxed Grater in black, and it has quickly become an essential tool in my kitchen. I can’t believe I went so long without one! This grater is easy to use, featuring multiple grating surfaces that make it perfect for everything from cheese to vegetables.
I have a love-hate relationship with box graters. I've been through probably 4 of them in the last 10 years, and all of them have had the same issue--until now. Other box graters I've used either have a "convenient" removable handle that is basically held on by the tension of itself on the inside of the grater, a rubber bottom that is held on by sheer hopes and dreams, or a combination of the two.
This grater has a handle that is RIVETED on, which is fantastic. I don't need to remove the top handle to clean the thing. It's also ergonomic, and the handle is slightly wider than the grater itself, so it's much easier to hold than other graters. As far as I can tell, the piece of plastic on the bottom of the grater is also attached in such a way that it will not come off, which I also appreciate.
The difference is in the details, and this grater has the details!
