Customers are mixed about the quality of the food grater. Some mention that it's great, easy to hold, and grades nicely. However, others say that it makes the graters much harder to use, the grazings accumulate inside the drum and are difficult to harvest, and the shreds wouldn't fall out easily.
"Works well and is easy to use and clean." Read more
"...would be to have a second blade for larger grating as this grates the cheese really fine (like one would want it for Parmesan)." Read more
"...if it does not clump together when you squeeze it, it's either old, stale cheese, or it's that tasteless, pre-grated, store bought stuff that..." Read more
"...It seems well built. I'll get back to that in a year or so. Meanwhile: It loses a star for clogging with softer cheeses...." Read more
Customers are mixed about the messiness of the food grater. Some mention it's easy to use and clean, while others say it'll take a lot of effort to disassemble and clean. The product comes with no cleaning or care instructions, and the grating is hard to loosen for cleaning.

Customers are mixed about the size of the food grater. Some mention that it does a nice job shredding parmesan cheese, and is simple and easy. They say it fits wider hunks of cheese and doesn't get clogged with cheese. However, others say that it's seems smaller, flimsier, and not as smooth with grating as their previous. The handle is really small, and the cylinder is slightly smaller. The barrel is a rather small diameter, so the longer curls of soft cheese simply get stuck.

"...Cheese got stuck and turned to mush. It took a LONG time to get all of the gummed up cheese out and cleaned." Read more

Customers have mixed opinions about the appearance of the food grater. Some mention it has a superior design, looks good, and is easy to clean. However, others say that it has design flaws and lacks enough leverage to easily squeeze the cheese into the grating wheel.
"...It’s construction is very durable and the grater wheel has an interesting design that grates very well...." Read more

"...The Zyliss is well designed, easy to assemble, disassemble, & run through the dishwasher in the top rack...." Read more
Customers are mixed about the grip of the food grater. Some mention that it's comfortable to hold, easy to disassemble and clean, and the ergonomic design fits comfortably in their hand. The rubber pads on both handles make the grip firm, and a non-slip base keeps it firmly in place while grating. However, some say that it is hard to hold and grate as the cheese exist on one end and the crank end undulates but is inadequate for gripping.
"...The assembly is simple and straight forward, its comfortable for me to hold in my hand and operate, the hopper for holding the cheese for grating is..." Read more
"...We definitely see this as an upgrade. The rubber pads on both handles make the grip firm so you don’t slide around as you try to grate your cheese...." Read more
"Works well but hard for me to hold.Half the size of the graters I see in use in restaurants," Read more
"...Easy on your wrists. The only work is cutting pieces of parmesan to fit the rectangular space." Read more

Most Italian restaurants have a shaker jar of grated cheese on the table. When you sit down at the table, unscrew the lid of this jar and take some cheese out with a spoon. Then put some between your thumb and your index finger, and squeeze. If the cheese sticks together in a clump, it's good fresh cheese. However, if it if it does not clump together when you squeeze it, it's either old, stale cheese, or it's that tasteless, pre-grated, store bought stuff that contains up to 50% cellulose (wood) which serves as an anti-clumping agent. If this is the case, just get up and leave without ordering. If this is the best the restaurant can do with its grated cheese, it's a good indication that the restaurant does not serve high-quality Italian food.
Now, here's some information about which Italian cheese you may want to buy for grating. Most people just refer to all of these Cheese's as Parmesan cheese. There are, in fact, three distinct types of Italian cheese to use for grating. The first, and mildest cheese, is called Romano.
Next, is Parmesan cheese. Although many people use the term parmesan to refer to any Italian cheese used for grating, it is actually a specific type of cheese. It's a sharper cheese than the Romano, but not the sharpest Italian cheese.
The Italian cheese that has the sharpest flavor, is called Lucatelli. Of course, in order to find this cheese, you'll have to go to an Italian deli that Imports many of its products. If you have a Little Italy in your town, this is where you'll most likely find an Italian deli. In San Diego, where I live, there's an Italian Restaurant and Deli in Little Italy called Filippi's.
As I'm sure you already know, a hard cheese can last virtually forever in a refrigerator. It's important though, to wrap it in plastic and not paper. Otherwise the refrigerator will dry it out. I'm only telling you this because most Italian delis will wrap the cheese in paper and not plastic. And, if you keep the cheese in a block and only grate it when you use it, it will stay fresh forever.
Because a hard cheese will not go bad in the refrigerator, you don't have to wash your Zyliss grater every time you use it. All you have to do is put your Zyliss grater in a ziplock bag with your cheese and put it in the refrigerator. There's no need to wash it if the cheese on it isn't going to go bad. (Yes Mom, I know I should wash it anyway.)
Lastly, here's a tip for how to grate a soft cheese. In descriptions of cheese graters, it will usually say somewhere that it's not possible to great a soft cheese. Not true. If you ever want to grate a soft cheese, all you have to do is freeze it first. If you're using a cheese grater like the Zyliss that has a small compartment to put the cheese into, it's best to cut the cheese into pieces before you freeze it. This is because it's a lot harder to cut it into pieces after it's frozen.
Bon appetit.
I have other Zyliss products and have always been pleased with their products.
It was shipped promptly and is of good quality.
I would recommend it, but make sure your cheese is a hard type and very cold.
