Review on FAVIA Rotary Cheese Grater with Handle - Food Shredder & Slicer with 3 Stainless Steel Drum Blades, Round Mandoline Nuts Grinder - BPA Free, Dishwasher Safe (Blue) by Ingrid Buell

It broke on the 3rd use. Otherwise I like it

Update. I like it, but my concerns about fragile connectors turned out to be an issue. I heard the plastic break as I grated the cheddar cheese. Yes, it was one of the small connectors for the small plastic cover on the back. It's a shame because I really enjoy using it. Broke on 3rd use. Each use was 1 block of cheese. I want the seller to see this and get in touch. The suction power could be better. But I've found that if I wipe down the counter with a damp cloth and then wipe dry again so that it's slightly damp then the suction would work much better. I would really like to pair the suction with the clamp option because together they will work incredibly well. When I unpacked the box for the first time, I was a bit disappointed. It was easy and I wasn't sure if it would even work. But I collected it and used it to grate cheese. Wow! Much safer than using a grater and worked better than the grater on my mandolin. The cleaning wasn't as bad as I feared. The first time I grated cheddar cheese. The second time I grated the Parmesan. Equally satisfied. My only complaint about the cleaning is the small clear piece that attaches to the back of the grille. In the absence of instructions I had no idea it was removable and saw water collecting in this compartment when washing. I finally figured out how to remove it, but I was concerned it would break as it's a fairly fragile multi-port connection. I finally managed to take it off and I still worry about having to repeatedly put it on and take it off every time I use it to clean. then it would be better if the connection wasn't so brittle and couldn't break with every use. Overall, I'm much happier than I thought when I unpacked it. People noted it can be absorbed. This is especially true for moist cheeses like Moserella. Use a fork and pull it out from time to time. Each manual grater is clogged with wet cheese.

Pros
  • Expensive but decent
Cons
  • Nothing
