Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Microplane Coarse Grater
Customer Review: Upgrade to Professional version!
Summary: 2 Stars
These Microplane graters are wonderful, but I recommend the Professional versions instead. If you use your graters a lot, the plastic edges will eventually break, so spend the extra few dollars and get the steel edged Professional versions to start with. I just replaced two graters myself because they broke.Customer Review: Works as Advertised
Summary: 5 Stars
You can't beat this product for grating spices, especially directly into a receipe. Easy to wash, store and use. A must for every kitchen.Customer Review: Perfectly fine blade in a worse than useless plastic frame
Summary: 1 Stars
That pretty much covers it. The blade is a classic, high-quality, sharp microplane blade. I love them - and I have 5 of the other "stick" style professional microplane graters. This, however, was my first microplane, and it would be sturdier if they made the frame out of a high quality dark chocolate. I don't even wash my graters in a dishwasher, and but plastic surround on this design began to crack within weeks - parts of it began falling off within months. Once that happens it becomes too flexible to use - not to mention the bits of clear plastic frame that in your food. Not good.
Anyone who rated this highly either did so too soon to know this - or they don't actually use it very often.
If you need a sturdy microplane to actually use in the kitchen, try any of the file-shaped metal-only (or all metal with black handle) versions. They are fantastic. They even cost less. This one stinks.
Customer Review: fell apart
Summary: 1 Stars
First the clear plastic rim cracked. Then the handle fell off. Now the plastic rim is falling off piece by piece.
It would be a fine grater, were it in one piece.
Customer Review: you must have it
Summary: 5 Stars
I own 3 different microplane graters, and they are incredible, if you like to cook, they are essentials in your kitchen.
