I really like this zester. I have only used it so far for cheese, lemon peel, and garlic. It did a nice job on all three items. The blades are very sharp and it is very easy to clean. I especially like the protective cover. The handle is a good length and comfortable to hold. It is a nice size. My previous zester was shorter and fatter and I like this longer thin one better. I have been placing the tester across my pan or dish to use so cannot speak of slip resistance. It seems to be well made so I expect to be using it for several years at least. Update: My daughter saw mine and wanted one just like it. Purchased for her Christmas stocking in a color to match her kitchen! Read more
My husband and I love using this new tool in the kitchen! It is SO much easier now to grate cheese over pasta dishes, grate lemon zest, etc., and cleanup is a breeze. It’s a heavy-duty, high-quality item, and I love the sleek-looking white handle. It has a great cover for the blades when not in use. We much prefer this to larger cheese graters and are extremely happy with our purchase. We decided to get one after taking a pasta class and seeing the chef using one; we wish we’d gotten this years ago! Read more
This totally upped my kitchen game. The zester works so well with making lemon meringue pie which my family loved. It doesn't slip in your hand and is great quality. A must have for any chef. Read more
Wirecutter recommended. Sounded good, IS wonderful. I zest a lot of oranges and lemons, and this is so much easier, faster, neater, easy to clean up from. It doesn't put hardly any smells and spray into the air. Instead it is saved in the fine shavings. Absolutely a go-to item if you zest. Also excellent shaving hard cheese for pasta and sauce. Much easier to use and easier to clean than the grinder I used before. Read more
Great product. I wish I had purchased sooner. Tip: a toothbrush works great to clean stuck on food. Read more
The best microplane I have ever used. Don't buy cheap microplanes. This one is perfect. I have used it for citrus zest, cheese, nutmeg, and other items of various consistencies. It grates them all with ease and holds its sharpness after many uses. Very durable, great size, and the rubber handle makes it great in the hand as far as grip goes. Read more
This is well-executed device with great visual appeal. It holds well in hand and it is sharp. It will do fine work for citrus. As for parmesan cheese, the filings may be perhaps too fine. The strength of the cutting blade is achieved by folded profile of the blade itself. While this is elegant, if the blade is ever bent by too much of a force, it will be nearly impossible to fix it. So, do not put too much pressure on it while working free-hand. It can be held flat on a cutting board. Then it should sustain lot more of pressure. Do not discard the handy plastic cover. Without it, left in a drawer, it will get blunt quickly. It is probably a useful gadget for those who do a lot of zesting. For casual need, a box grater will suffice. Read more
Great Zester! No buildup or caking. Effortlessly zest anything from lemons to Parmesan cheese. Read more
