Gefu Handheld Rotary Grater

With a rotary grater, a 360-degree spinning drum takes in ingredients and turns out perfect shreds over 10 times faster than manual box graters or microplanes—we like them for their efficiency, since they offer continuous grating power without having to change positions, the way you might on a box grater, for less hand fatigue and greater overall safety. In a test of 13 rotary graters, this handheld model from Gefu outperformed the rest with its tabletop counterpart. Gefu’s handheld model is a Red Dot Design Award Winner, and for good reason; the two interchangeable grater drums offer fine and coarse grating for cheese, nuts or chocolate. The grater is comfortable to hold and smooth to operate, and for soft cheese in particular, our testers noted the prettiest shred. Choose between grating into a closable hopper for later or à la minute over a finished dish. Either way, the handheld model goes easily from counter to table. And it comes apart for easy cleaning; just toss it into the dishwasher.
