Excellent grater and a work of art

I long admired this used by the waiters at Eataly in New York City. And I like Alessi products. Yet somehow I couldn’t bring myself to buy one. Lo and behold, it’s my birthday so I caved. This is a beauty and its function is top notch. Read more

Large cheese grater

Just came home from Florida and saw this grater at a lot of restaurants. It’s so cute and practical too. I will leave it on my counter all the time. I’m sure it will start some conversations! It came in a box with instructions how to use and care for it. Quick delivery too Read more

Design Triumph!

This is the best cheese grater ever made. Such a grand idea. So simple. Increase grating surface to increase efficiency--by an order of magnitude. I lusted after this kitchen tool for ages but only recently had enough disposable cash to justify spending $100 on a cheese grater. Worth every dollar. And you can use it to pose as a unicorn in between grating sessions. Bravo Richard Sapper once again! Read more

A total disappointment

I saw this in a restaurant and knew I wanted one. When it arrived it looked exactly as I’d seen and as pictured. Then I tried to use it. It was completely useless. I could run my knuckles over the grater with no impact. I was so disappointed and returned it, It’s nice art but a crap utensil. Read more

Embarassed that I bought it....but I love it.

I loved the design of this so much and being Italian, I grate a lot of cheese over a lot of dishes. But I use another grater. This one is just too pretty and too hard to clean and dry every time. I use this mostly for special occasions or to impress company and it does look really amazing tucked away on my counterspace. I do agree that the handle is somewhat flimsy, I thought it would be more sturdy too. I was able to find a replica for like $12 at homegoods but it was soooo much smaller and not as nice as this one. This is definetly a good item to keep on your wish list for holidays so you dont feel guilty for spending $100 on a cheese grater - but if you do, you'll love it. Read more
