Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Zyliss Transparent Cheese Grater
Customer Review: Bought it, returned it
Summary: 2 Stars
I bought this as a replacement for an old Mouli grater that was looking its age, but what a disappointment. Because the handle is fixed on one side, the grating plane is not an open cylinder, unlike the Mouli (and the Cuisinpro, which I'm now using) When grating a slightly soft cheese--a sharp cheddar--the drum quickly became clogged with cheese shred and it was almost impossible to clean them out.
Description of Zyliss Transparent Cheese Grater
This classic tool grates hard cheeses, nuts, and chocolate with the turn of its crank. It's useful both in the kitchen and at the table--when hot pasta or chilled salad calls for a cascade of freshly grated cheese. Because the crank fits into either side (the other side remains open to spill out grated food), the grater works equally well for left-handers and right-handers. It's made of rugged transparent plastic, and the drum is stainless steel. It slips out of the grater for hand washing. The grater's well measures 1-1/4 by 2-1/4 inches; overall, it is 6 inches long. --Fred BrackGraters
