A must have
This is a game changer in many ways my daughter grated some cheese and the blades was cutting it like butter. And it looked so easy I can't wait until I can slice some potatoes for fried potatoes with onions

Hello. I saw this product and the first thing that attracted me to it was the ability to have a larger diameter for a hash brown shred. Getting various larger powered kitchen equipment is quite the ordeal for small to medium pietions. Also having a handheld shredder is ok though I wanted something clean and simple with simple mechanics. I wanted to keep my finger, knuckles & finger brips away from shred surfaces.I like pretty much everything about this product but a couple things. One thing is that the handle, when in use, feels like it could easily snap. The solution is make sure you don't force your product into the feed tube and just let the blades do the work.The suction on their works pretty good on a clean surface, that was refreshing. The type of suction material was limbered enough to attach more securely. It was attached to granite. I'm not sure how it would do with the concrete style surface. I would imagine something that has a heavier porosity would possibly be a challenge but I have no experience in that.Having the different type of shredders and graters work quite well. We had a ruffle styled potato chip and we just wash the starch off, pat dry it, add little powdered salt (salt that I run through a mini coffee mill. I like the lessened salinity taste and eveness that powdered salt yields) and stuck them in the microwave, of all things. Cooked them till they were crispy. They actually were really good and oil-free. You can atomize some oil on that but if you're looking to oil-diminish there's that.We also tried the chips in the air fryer but they seem to do better in the microwave which was surprising. Will try them again on a rack system to see if we can get a better air flow.What I liked about that style chip was there was more surface area with the ridges creating more of a crunch. I found out I rather like the texture of something that is fresh, air blown/micro'd and not oil fried. I also rather liked the thickness of the cut and knowing that I didn't have to cook it all the way through which left a little al dente to the texture.We also ran carrots through there with a waffle edge shred and a straight edge. We put those in the oven as a roasted vegetable.We use Golden potatoes for hash browns and a portion of the peel would get stuck in the tumbler area. We learned to just stop shredding when it got close to getting stuck, gabbed the peel and inverted it the peel perpendicular so it would shred It up. One could also easily just take the peel out and use a knife to cut it into hash brown sizes. It's obvious that you could pre-peel the potato before sticking it in but I'm a peel guy so there we go.I'm not sure I would use a softened product like a soft cheese. I would probably stay with more rigid items. Maybe you use a cheese wire for softened items.It washes up nicely. There's not a lot of little bitty grooves you can't get a towel in to dry. We hand wash more these days than we do dishwasher and it just takes care of the plastic products a little bit better.I have a habit to hot rinse and item immediately. Over my years I have found that leaving a grater of any style setting out to be washed later makes it harder to clean. If you rinse it ASAP it's so much easier to take care of. Of course that goes for any product.We will take one of our taller drinking glasses, run some water in it and drop our utensils inside that glass to let them soak. Water solubility really breaks components down of said soaked item.I don't think I would leave the cutting edge of the product without drying it. Not necessarily on this product but with others they tend itself to little pieces of rust. I didn't want to take the chance on this one in that regard.Having the multiple blade selection is rather clever. There are two different blade pieces for each cut/shred style. You detach the bladed surface from the cylinder. Each has two surfaces times two (ie: So if you're doing a ruffle cut you'll have two blades. If you're doing a straight cut again two blades). This feature allows you to benefit of simplistic storage. We used to have a salad shooter years ago and each shred had its own tumbler so we had quite a few tumblers whereas this they're more of a racked position and space saverWhen installing these surfaces I would not force it. Thus the secondary weak point. The narrowed edge of the tumbler housing receives the narrowed end of the shred fixture. There are two little stabilization tabs. If you just simply pop that end of there and not force it you'll be fine. Again don't force anything on this device.I like to concept of this product. I don't know, it just kind of took me back to a simpler time, with a simple machine.If you get this product I hope you enjoy the simplicity of it I think is what I like the best. If I'm hashbowning a single potato or two or even four I'll jump all over this if I'm doing a whole bag of potatoes then I'll break out the powered items. I like this thing because it doesn't scrape my knuckles or fingertips as in a handheld shredder.So the question always becomes would I buy this again or would I give it as a gift to somebody. I would buy this product again. I would like to suggest the manufacturers tha they work on that handle a little bit more. For me, I probably will pour some epoxy on the inside of the handle to help strengthen it ever so slightly but at the end of the day I think I'll just be careful with the product. It's not some kind of power tool, it's plastic, respect the under-engineered design.Blessings to all and have fun with your product.

Your kitchen needs this grater!
Amazing! The grater is so easy to use. It's sturdy and seals well to the countertop. It grates well and quickly. East to assemble and stores away safely. Highly recommend!

Good sturdy piece
I have only used it once since I received it but I do have to admit it worked so much better than the other one I used before.

Won’t last a year.
I absolutely love the concept of this. I use it all the time and my kids love to help me grate the cheese. However, I have had this just under a year and the plastic piece that holds the blades has cracked in two places. So I will be looking for a solid stainless steel blade.
