OXO Good Grips Mini Complete Grate Slice Set

These little graters pack a punch. They are easy to store right in my utensil drawer. The grater comes out and rests in the top part to catch cheese, carrots, cucumbers, lettuce, whatever and then you have little slots they go back into the base and the top clicks back on and you can put it away. I find myself using these significantly more than either my handheld grater which requires a bowl or my kitchenaid grater attachment (lots of extra steps for this so it ends up not being used unless I have a large quantity of food to grate). If I want to grate cheese I whip it out. I have committed to not buying pre shredded cheese because of the extra stuff they put on it to keep it from sticking together and this little device has made that commitment much easier. Actually cheese blocks are seemingly less expensive than pre-shredded, require less packaging (better for environment) and tastes significantly better. I also love to shredded carrots and purple cabbage in my salads and sliced cucumbers. I was afraid to use a mandolin for a while because I cut my hand horribly on one many years ago but these attachments are east to swap out (no touching blades) and there is a little grip for the veggies so you are really not at risk for that if you are careful. I also store the mandolin attachment in its plastic bag mostly out of paranoia but hey you probably would too if you saw a piece of your thumb on the counter one time. Overall a great item and it gives me confidence in oxo products Read more

Well, it's finally happened. I've reached the point in life where I've fallen head over heels in love with a kitchen tool. Before you shake your head sadly and scroll on by, lamenting the loss of another middle-aged woman to the trappings of domesticity, allow me to reassure you that my passion is well founded. This is a sturdy, excellent tool that far exceeded my expectations in this grasping modern age of cheap construct for a quick buck. The plastic is smooth and sturdy and thick, not flimsy in any way. The little rubber feet on the container part of the kit actually do work to keep sliding to a minimum. The easily inserted/removed grating plates stay put but pop right out with almost no pressure. They are sharp and make clean cuts. The grated material actually stays in the container. This thing is a bloody miracle. It really works. I've had a few different sets that come with a container, but they cracked or grew brittle with use. Oxo products dont do that. I balked for a very long time at a $30 price tag on a grating set, but when I discovered that I had some unexpected cash back on a credit card, I applied it towards this set and it wound up only costing me five bucks out of pocket, so I went for it. It's totally worth the 30 bucks, people. If you cook and you rely on really good tools you can use and clean easily over and over again, Oxo does not disappoint. Theyre routinely at the highest price point, but their stuff is buy-once, last-forever quality, so you really can't blame them. You have to pay for stuff that lasts for 20 years, right? Great purchase, and I do not regret it. Highly recommended. And now I'll never need another grating set! Read more

Love this grate and slice set! I tossed my big box grater and don’t miss it. The mandolin slicing blade is perfect when I don’t want to get out my big slicer. Blade are sharp, easy to use, love the built in measuring device and easy to clean. Great product! Read more

I really like these cheese/veggie graters, and am please with the purchase overall. 2 minor things could be improved - the curved edge of the graters is on the wrong side! Or maybe both sides should be curved, so when you push the cheese against the grater, the curved end of the grater is held by the container and does not slip. The second "improvement" is, I think they could be smaller and still be super effective. I live in an RV, and was looking for something small for my small available space. These are smaller than most, so I am not completely dissatisfied, but would have preferred smaller. I love they have a container to hold the parts together, and the container seals should you choose to store what you grated. LOVE it! Grater is sharp and effective, no problems. Easy to clean, and no mess grating because of the fitted grating container. Good quality. Good price. Just what I needed (even if it could have been smaller) ;0) Read more

I needed to replace my really old metal grater as it started to rust. I wanted something more compact and found this. It’s perfect - enough different sized graters, easy and compact storage, and the best part is that the cover also works as a container for what’s being grated - saving on mess. Read more

Love OXO. It is very useful Read more

I did buy this because it was an OXO product and I needed a grater that would grate into a measured container. I liked that it was a self contained unit that I could easily store when not in use. I liked being able to put t away. Yet every time I cook, at least four times a week, I am pulling it back out of storage. Nothing like finely sliced red onions for a salad, or cheeseburger. Love the two sizes of graters, not only for cheese, but for lemon zest and nutmeg on your spinach. Have not used the julienne blade yet, but have carrots awaiting. My only wish is that it had a second wider mandolin blade. I believe you would use it often. Read more
