The other sides of the building also appear to be quite nice.
No, but it grates cheese better than anyone else. It's also "nerd friendly."
The handle and the base appear to be made of the same material. It is non-slip because it is molded on and has a rubbery feel to it. slip. br>I gave two of these boxed graters as gifts, one to my son in San Francisco and the other to my daughter-in-law in New York City. They are well-liked by the law in Fresno.
It prefers aged parmesan and occasionally sharp cheddar cheeses, but not stinky cheeses.
Selected User Reviews For Cuisinart Boxed Grater, Black, One Size
The grater does a fantastic job. So far, I've only used the soft cheese side, but it shreds cheddar and other soft cheeses quickly. br>br>I'm not fond of the design in two ways. br>First, the grater is held in place by a rubber frame around the base. Unfortunately, cheese gets stuck in the gap between the rubber frame and the grater's body, making cleanup difficult. The frame can be removed, but it will take some force and is potentially dangerous due to the sharp edges on the grater's surfaces. The steel rod that runs around the grater's base to keep it rigid is the second issue. It's made of carbon steel, not stainless steel. It rusts.
The non- When I removed the skid rubber from the dishwasher, rusty black water poured out. When I removed the rubber piece, I discovered that the rod that runs through the bottom was already rusted! It is 100% stainless steel is very deceiving to say that it is 100% stainless steel is very deceiving to say that it.
I did it three times, but I only realized it was rusty the third time! I'm extremely disappointed! This is being returned to you. Please look at the image.
A carbon (rather than stainless) steel support rod rusts beneath the rubber base. This is unacceptable in a tool that should be 100% stainless — I haven’t used it and it’s rusted from the first wash I haven’t used it and.
It's only been a month since I've had this device. It's rusted on the bottom after maybe three washes. The rust is hidden by the plastic, but it is still present. The quality is poor.
The grater was easy to use, but it rusted after only one run through the dishwasher, so I'm very disappointed with this product. I threw it away after one use, so it was a complete waste of money.
I'm glad I got this grater because it's a lot easier to use than the one I used as a kid. My grater had a flimsy, thin metal handle when I was a kid. When you're grating 3 pounds of cabbage, it's a pain to hold. This one has a large chunky handle that is easy to grip while grating mountains of potatoes (mmmmmmm). Mountain ranges of potatoes). The only issue is that the blades could be sharper. br>br> These are simply punched out metal sheets, similar to my childhood grater. Because the "teeth" aren't sharpened in any way, you'll have to press down harder on the food. As a result, if you slip and fall, you could seriously injure yourself. I wish I'd spent the extra money on Microplane graters with sharpened blades.
I've never had a problem with a cutting tool being too sharp, and I treat my knives as if they were scalpels. In the kitchen, I'm used to sharp tools, but there's a distinction to be made between truly sharp and ragged. After cutting myself while grabbing the handle, I had to smooth the rough edges of one corner of the top of this box grater with a file. The coarse grater has been fine to use, but the fine side has rough punched edges that are difficult to clean because things get stuck in the sharp nooks and crannies, shredding whatever you try to clean it with. I bought this to replace my old box grater, which had simply worn out after years of faithful service; it was wonderful, predictable, and effortless right up until the end of its life, and it never bit me back. This one isn't as welcoming as the previous one. The fine side, as mentioned, rips flesh at the slightest provocation. It's not only ineffective due to its difficulty in cleaning, but it's also as dangerous as a red-hot poker. A bellied piraa is waiting for an unsuspecting finger to come close enough to touch it. I've never had a kitchen tool that was so well-suited to inflicting pain without provocation. When you combine that with the rusting parts, I can't recommend it unless you handle it with chainmail gloves and look for a little extra iron oxide in your grated parmesan, as well as whatever other stale bits remained in the crannies after eluding your previous cleaning attempt. Beware.
