Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Microplane Slider Attachement for the 35000 Grater SeriesCustomer Review: Of very limited usefulness, makes a nice nutmeg grater Summary: 4 Stars
An avid home cook that is a collector of both cookbooks and cooking gadgets writes this review. I purchased this product because if seemed like a good idea for cheese at the time. In the 6 months that I have had it I have only used it to test it for different applications. I have summarized my observations of this product below:
Pros:
1. Good for grating the end of a large piece of cheese
2. Grate nutmeg (although I use a nutmeg grater)
3. Grate ginger (I find a regular microplane to work more easily and you don't need to cut up your ginger to use it)
4. Use in place of a garlic press
5. Small size means easy to store
6. Completely disassembles and is therefore easy to clean
Cons:
1. Not useful if you have a big hunk of cheese that you don't want to cut down for storage (parmesan)
2. Interior is very, very, very small (approximately 3 tablespoons in size) requires reloading to grate any quantity
Overall the small interior cavity of this device makes it unnecessary in my kitchen. I don't like to cut chunks off my cheese, as I believe it stores better in a block. It will grate small objects without ruining your nails. I had high hopes for this item, but find it of little use. However, this product is a useful add-on if you do not own a nutmeg grater.
Description of Microplane Slider Attachement for the 35000 Grater SeriesThis NEW slider attachement help protect fingers when grating down to the last bit. This attachment slides onto the blades of any grater in Microplane?s 35000 series to grate smaller foods. Lift the lid on the attachment?s hopper and load it up with ginger, garlic, nuts, or a hunk of cheese. Place the weighted lid back on and push lightly as you slide the attachment back and forth on your grater. The slider grates small foods more quickly while keeping your fingertips safe from the grater?s sharp teeth. This attachment is made of polycarbonate plastic and is dishwasher-safe for easier cleaning. --Cristina Vaamonde
