I have had other microplanes that had a plastic frame and they all eventually broke. These planes have a stainless- steel frame and are really sturdy. I don't think they will break with normal use.

I was looking for a hand grater to use for garlic and this one is perfect! I ordered it online and my product arrived quickly.

Review 4 for Microplane Gourmet Series Hand Graters
I have the coarse and medium size; and the result of grating cheese with the microplane graters is superior to the box graters, in which you have to hunt for the food on the underside, they're messy and difficult to clean. I've thrown out my box grater. The microplanes produce quick results, are easy to clean, dishwasher safe, sturdy, and I store mine upright in with the other kitchen gadgets on the countertop for easy access.

All of these graters are wonderful! I don't know how I lived without them before. They hardly take up any room in the drawer and are light-weight and easy to clean. They have made grating much simpler!

I have cooked for many years and have used all types of graters. This microplane grater is in a class all by itself. It is very lightweight with a very comfortable handle. Its super sharp microblades grates the hard cheeses and even carrots effortlessly. Clean up is a breeze. The oversize blade provides a broad surface for quick preparations. I use to hate the time it took to grate food items but not anymore.

I started not to get these because I have at least 2 regular flat graters & and old "box-style" grater. BUT, I am SO GLAD I did, I used the "Course" grater to grate some Pepper Jack Cheese & was amazed at how quickly it did the job. And cleaning it was a breeze, unlike my other graters that would "eat your knuckles" if you weren't careful. I was thoroughly pleased with the over-all use. I don't know how I've survived without them!

These Microplane Hand Graters just arrived. They are
every bit as good as the reviews which I checked out before ordering them!! They work beautifully and I'm
really happy that I ordered them and have them in my
kitchen to use for all the jobs in preparing food for all
kinds of baking and cooking needs. I specifically needed the fine grater to grate frozen lemons. It did a
fantastic job and only took a few minutes to do. I would certainly recommend these to others. Can not go wrong with this product.

I received my Microplane Hand Graters and I am so happy that I ordered the set of three. I have arthritis and find it diffucult to use a knife and other kitchen tools. These graters make easy work of preparing garlic, shredding vegetables and cheese. Cooking is a pleasure again!

I am very happy with this product. Even bought another one. Grates nutmeg and garlic very easily. Somehow makes food taste better because you dont have big chunks of garlic etc. in your finished product.

Works Great!
PostedJuly 27, 2011
This microplane grater works much better than I expected. I used it to work up ginger since mine usually sits in the produce drawer and dries out. Now I can grate and freeze it and have fresh to use!

We already had a longer and much narrower plane that does a great job for us, but in processing some items it became difficult to keep them on the planing surface. These wider planes are easier to use and we now have a choice of finished results.

You'll fly through grating!
PostedJanuary 13, 2010
This is a great set of graters. If you're not careful, you'll have so much fun grating that you might fly through a whole brick of cheese when you only needed to grate a little! These are easy on your hands, too, with big, soft handles. The rubber bumper on the front of the grater keeps it from slipping when in use. The only caveat is that you will not get thick shreds off any of the graters. So if you need chunky shreds of anything, keep something else in the house, too.

Way better than a box grater!

Just got a fine Microplane grater and I'm so glad I did. No more scraped knuckles, no more cheese stuck to the inside of the box grater. Makes nice fluffy parmigano reggiano. Cleans up like a breeze.

A Must Have!
PostedSeptember 15, 2009
I just love this set! Seeing them in use really sold me on them. I wanted to replace my box grater because I got tired of seeing the cheese that I love still stuck to the insides after I would use it and bruising my fingers at times trying to retrieve the leftovers. They beautifully grate chocolate, garlic, ginger, nutmeg, etc. I love that this is a Microplane product, how they rest flat on top of the bowl, allowing me to grate to my hearts content without fear of slipping (the rubber handles and tip of the graters prevent slip) and clean-up is a snap! Wash in lukewarm soapy water, blot with a paper towel and snap the protective cover back on to store. No more lost food (I hate to waste anything) or bruised fingers, even without the guard! They fit nicely in my utensil crock or in the drawer. A must have for any kitchen! Highly Recommended!!!

Wow! You have not used a grater until you have used these. I use them for garlic, zesting, hard cheese, onions you name it. The list goes on and on. I have thrown out my old garlic press, which was always a pain to use. I use garlic nearly every meal and these graters make it fun and easy to use.
The handles are non slip and the whole thing is just so easy to use. I just love them and would recommend them to anyone, even a casual cook. They really are WOW!!!
