What foods can it grate?

It is built for hard foods: Parmesan, Asiago, hard chocolate and nuts. Soft cheese and vegetables tend to clog the drum.

Is it dishwasher safe?

No. The grater must be washed by hand, and the drum needs rinsing soon after use so cheese does not harden in it.

How does it compare with a box grater?

It keeps fingers clear of the blade and collects the food in the drum. A box grater is faster for large amounts and handles soft foods.

Does it need batteries or power?

No. It is a manual rotary grater turned by a hand crank.

How much cheese does it hold?

The drum is small, so it suits grating a portion at a time rather than a large block in one go.

Our take on the Orblue Rotary Cheese Grater

The Orblue Rotary Cheese Grater is a hand-crank drum grater with a stainless steel drum for hard cheeses, nuts and chocolate. It is aimed at people who want to grate Parmesan or Asiago at the table without electricity. It is not dishwasher safe, so it needs hand washing, and the drum suits hard foods rather than soft cheese or vegetables. Against box graters it is tidier and safer for fingers, but it does one job and takes more counter space. Owners rate it around 3.8 out of 5, with praise for hard cheese and complaints about cleaning and durability.
