Cheaply built, but gets the job done. It's made of plastic and comes with several grating heads. Was hoping for a more solid construction and won't buy more.

Top your delicious dishes with this American Metalcraft PCG9 hand cheese grater. It's perfect for grating parmesan cheese for salads or pastas. It's also great for using with garlic or chocolate while cooking. This grater is designed for light-duty use with a variety of soft cheeses.
It comes with three individual barrels so you can cut different types of items with various cutting patterns. The cylinder with a long slit is ideal for creating thin strip cuts. This is the perfect feature if you're looking to add soft cheese chunks to a delicious charcuterie board. Alternatively, the other attachments are ideal for creating medium or fine, long shreds. Perfect for grating cheeses like parmesan or romano, or alternative ingredients like chocolate, these attachments allow you to grate food into finer pieces. This makes it great to use if you're looking at topping off dishes with something savory.
With the easy-crank handle, you can easily apply whatever you wish to whatever dish, or garnish with lemon zest or orange zest! Also, the barrel is easily removable, which makes it a breeze to clean. This grater is the perfect addition to your arsenal of kitchen tools!

So cheaply made poorly designed! it is not worth even as inexpensive as these are, got 2 and won't hold together as there is no piece that keeps the whole mechanism together, so unless you hold it together with one hand as you grate and don't let go! it will fall apart on the customers plate. It would be an ok home product but not a commercial one used at a high volume restaurant

This is a nice cheese grater, and comes with multiple drums, but we only use one for cheese and the threads on the handle seem to strip and the handle keeps coming off.

Not durable enough for restaurant use. The threads that hold the spinning handle on wear down and the handle breaks away when grating. The stationary handle cracks. I wish there was a higher quality option. The metal one is uncomfortable and eventually broke too. Little bits of cheese get caught in the grating rotor and clog it up, forcing you to grab the parm chunk with your fingers at a table. Before it breaks it works ok. wish there was a better option. I guess big restaurants use an electric grater and dont grate at the table?

Poorly Made cheap plastic product. I should have read the reviews before my purchase. This item falls apart while my servers try to grate cheese tableside for my guests. I do not recommend this product.

I remembered my grandmother having such a grater. So, I tried it. Finally, no scraped fngers...this item is a little gem. Easy to assemble, easy to clean (dishwasher). I did receive three separate screw-on handles though any one of them does the job. I shredded cheddar. I've sliced thin carrot strips...no problems, no bloody fingers!!

Very cheaply built and barely survives a couple months in our restaurants. Will be looking for a different brand.

Great item. Exactly as described.

This thing is a piece of total junk! Its cheap thin plastic that wants to break immediately. It falls apart the second you take pressure off of the cheese. And its not air tight so the product will dry out if you don't remove it after use. DO NOT BUY THIS. How this has a 4 1/2 star average is BEYOND ME. Stay away from this thing. Total garbage. Get an OXO Good Grip rotary cheese grater for way cheaper. They are so much better.
Thank you for the review! We’re sorry this product is not working for your needs. We suggest trying this Choice Rotary Grater with Fine and Coarse Drums instead.

Superb little grater! Easy to disassemble and clean. grates very well! Not the fanciest looking toy but it sure does the job well! Err on the side of hard cheese.
Loved the idea of this as I've seen these used in restaurants. And, the multiple barrels are pretty cool. But, next time, I think I'll upgrade to something a little sturdier. Still, for the price, this ia a really nice grater. I especially prefer the fine cut barrel.

It does the job, but I just wish there was a way to keep the hinge locked in place, so it wouldn't accidentally open causing the blade to come off track.

Sturdy construction makes grating hard cheeses fast and easy. Stylish design offers an option for table side grated cheese offerings for flair and customer satisfaction.

I really like this American Metalcraft plastic cheese grater it’s very easy to assemble and use it has three different attachments for doing different types of shreds or slices on your cheese
The American hand cheese grater works great on chocolate bars. The grater is great for shredding chocolate over chocolate pies and hot cocoa for great presentation.
The American Metalcraft Hand Cheese Grater grates cheese easily and it is easy on your hands. I don't have to worry too much about wasting product with this grater. It is plastic and it tends to sometimes get jammed with cheese. It is dishwasher safe.

This cheese grater has multiple shapes and sizes of grates and holds together very well, but comes apart for easy cleaning. Perfect for table-side Parmesan service, as well as strong enough for back-of-house use.

The end that screws on has a tendency to pop off. We ended up gluing ours in place. Wish it was a little more heavy duty plastic, but the design is great.

I bought this grater thinking it would be amazing but, honestly, it's just okay. I use it for harder cheese, mostly grana padano, and while it works, it does feel a little flimsy. The teeth in the rotary grating part are quite sharp and have no problem getting through the cheese, but the hand crank and actual chassis feel quite prone to breaking. I opted to stop using it and ordered one from another store that felt much more durable for a similar price.
