Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Microplane 40021 Classic Medium Ribbon Two-Way Grater
Customer Review: Good, but dangerous
Summary: 3 Stars
Like all Microplane graters, this one is great. In my experience, it produces about the same results as the coarse model, so I'm not sure about the "medium" label, but it works quite well.
You have to be extra-careful when using this one, though. Because the blades are so sharp, it grates so fast, and you are applying pressure in both directions, it is easy to hurt yourself. I inadvertently trimmed a fingernail the first time I used it. I was impressed that the sharp blades went through my fingernail like butter, but it wasn't really a good thing. Had the angle been a little different, it would have been the tip of my finger and a some blood mixed in with my grated cheese.
Since the results are so similar, I would recommend using the safer "coarse" model instead.
Customer Review: Love all the Microplanes!
Summary: 5 Stars
For years I was constantly grabbing the fine ribbon zester and thought I'd try the medium and coarse graters too. I use all of them constantly. The two-way grate on this one is fantastic! I highly recommend all three.
