   I am a member or a large Italian family. We use grated cheese on many things – soup, pasta, polenta, and in general, you name it. For years I owned a metallic “Mouli” grinder – which failed a number of years ago, and I could not find a replacement that I liked. I purchased a Zyliss grinder then and had good luck with it until it warped – unsure of how. I purchased another brand (a name in kitchen appliances) that would not measure up to the Zyliss. I bought another Zyliss, it is every bit as good as before. Even with heavy use, I strongly recommend this cheese grinder.

   I own a Faberware that is almost identical to this unit. The Faberware comes with a medium blade (although the cut is more like the fine shred you get in packages), does a good job, and cost 1/3 as much. But the Faberware is difficult to take apart, and practically impossible to clean. I wanted something with a more coarse blade and easier to disassemble/clean. I really like the size of the cut on the rotaries used by restaurants, so, after reading all the bad reviews about the other graters Amazon sells, and the good ones about this one, I decided to take a chance.

   First off, it is built as well as the Faberware, and very easy to take apart. That’s the good news. But it comes with the finest grater blade I’ve ever seen in a rotary cutter. It looks like it was made for nutmeg, not cheese. If I only grated parmesan, it’d probably be great, but I do mostly softer cheeses. Also, for some reason, the idiot who designed this unit not only allowed the screw-on handle to penetrate the inside of the rotary blade, but they put a hole in the end of the plastic screw (just one end, not all the way through) for the apparent sole purpose of getting clogged with cheese. Add to that the plastic braces inside the blade collect cheese under them, and it is literally impossible to clean. I hope someone at Goodwill can use it, because I sure can’t.

   Love the hard cheese grater, but the handle warped a bit in the dishwasher?!?!? We managed to bend it back slightly so it works.
