Great idea
The fact that the measuring cup is attached at the bottom is a brilliant idea. Long past due I would say. I was not normally a fan of box-style graters, but this one is great. Clean up is also better than the old box graters. Measurement lines on the cup is a great feature!

Absolutely Perfect
Wow............I used this for the first time today and it worked better than any grater I've ever owned. It stayed in place during grating a hard cheese and I loved the measuring cup on the bottom. What a great design.

High quality grater
This grater is high quality, made from metal that doesn't bend like in cheaper alternatives. It is sharp, and extreme force is not needed to grate hard veggies like carrots for example. I used it several times and am very pleased with it. The large rubberized handle is great. In the past I used cheaper graters that would start showing the signs of rust right after the initial wash; not this one - it looks like new after several washes now. The service was fast without any problems. Many thanks.

The Long Search!
My oldest daughter got married in 2003 and we took a day off to register at Macy's with the fun little zap gun. Our eyes both lit on this grater at the exact same moment and as I had never seen one with the box attached before (but after 29 years of marriage to a man who would love grated cheese on ice cream !), I was tired enough of time consumingly scraping up all those little curls and hard or soft bits of cheese around the plate under the scraper. Lo and behold in all the store...there was only one left - and what kind of mom would I be to take it out of the hands of the bride? (Tho, I was kinda tempted...) Anyway, believe it or not, I have looked off and on for all these years to find another one until today! Today I have found the cheese scraper of all scrapers!!! Or obviously, any other kind of scraper you need -and, by the way, my daughter really loves hers too. THANKS Macys, for finally coming through.

EXCELLENT UPGRADE
A great quality product that should last for years in my arsenal of food prep kitchen aides. Very comfortable to handle and work with. Sturdy built. Great idea with the bottom reservoir to catch the gratings of whatever food you're prepping. However, it's only good for a small amount of any food item being grated, so consequently I do my regular grating into a big bowl to hold the capacity for hash browns, etc.
Throughout the week we do lots of hash browns, grated cheese for tacos and for mac and cheese, so this grater has gotten a busy workout from day 1. Also, the slot on the side that does thin chips from potatoes worked great for quick homemade chips on the side.

Perfect tool.
Grater handle is easy on old hands to hold--does hurt to grip hard when grating. Easy cleanup and looks good after many uses.
