Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Cuisipro Accutec Razor-Sharp Kitchen Rasp
Customer Review: Better than Microplane
Summary: 4 Stars
Definitely better than Microplane in its shape (slightly rounded) and its sharpness (hide your knuckles). Also love the fact that the end you place on the counter/cutting board is rubber coated to prevent slippage. Only drawback is the plastic handle: it's too short (and I have little hands!), and the plastic is cheezy and uncomfortable. A lot of my utensils are Good Grips, and you really come to rely on and appreciate the heft, girth and comfort of their handles.Customer Review: It's GRATE!!!
Summary: 4 Stars
What else can one say? This grater/zester is well made, is easy to use and produces very zesty zest. It's grate for greating (or is that great for grating).
It doesn't have a lot of surface area and has a curved top, so I'd avoid using it for things like carrots. It works very well for hard cheeses and for zesting lemons and oranges.
The grater/zester cleans up fairly easily and is comfortable to use. It's also well-priced.
Customer Review: Well made except...
Summary: 2 Stars
I have two problems with this thing:
1. The grating blades are at an angle that causes the food to want to slide to that side...then the fingers get grated. A little practice avoids that though.
2. It doesn't come with any kind of plastic cover so, like, where do you store it to prevent damage to it or your hands? Next time I'll get something with some sort of snap-on cover. I would have gladly paid another buck to have it.
Customer Review: bargain kitchen tool.
Summary: 4 Stars
It's just like a Microplane(tm): a kitchen version of a wood-rasp. It just plane (pardon the pun) works. But I take issue with the construction. They cut a corner by making the handle hollow. I appreciate the attempt to make the handle larger and more ergonomic, but it should have been solid. The hollowness throws off the balance and feels cheap in the hand. So, aside from feeling like a cheap toy, it zests and grates with the best of them.Customer Review: Cuisipro Accutec Grater/Zester
Summary: 5 Stars
Excellent grater! It makes grating ginger a breeze, something I've have problems doing with every other grater I've owned. Usually the fibrous threads in the ginger get stuck in the grater and clog it up, but not with this grater. It doesn't work quite as well as a zester-- the size of the blade is a little unweildy for the curved surface of a small orange or lemon, but it's still better than a lot of other zesters I have used.
