Love this Grater
I completely disagree with the other reviews, I have had this grater for almost 2 years and love it, it fits comfortably in my hand while grating and looks good next to the spice rack when not in use. Only reason it hasn't got 5 stars is because it is awkward to clean BUT not impossible!

Consider an alternative
Although this item does produce some nicely grated parmesan cheese, I never found it all that easy to use. I confess that I did not persevere very long with it as, after only a few hand washes, the wood became rough. In addition, as a previous reviewer stated, it was very difficult to clean. Mine ended up in the bin I'm afraid.

Good but a nightmare to clean
The grater works OK and is comfortable to hold. It does what it says and grates parmesan into "rubble" rather than shredding it - this does mean that it takes a bit longer to get the same volume of cheese than with a "traditional" grater.

The gripe I have with it is that it is a real pain to clean. Cheese gets inside the threads of the screws which hold the grating surface onto the wooden handle, you can't get behind the grating surface. The only way we found to clean it properly was to use a toothpick.
