I got this yesterday and rinsed off the parts so I could use it today. First I powered through two 8 ounce blocks of cheese, then an 8 ounce block of chilled butter, then about 5 ounces of pecans. All of these items were needed for a recipe I've been putting off (except one block of cheese I shredded just to have it on hand). I have a Bosch multifunction stand mixer with a continuous shredder attachment but it's a pain to use and a lot of waste product ends up stuck in the parts, so it never feels very labor-saving. I'd been considering something like this but they just look too good to be true, and I worried that my arthritis might make this uncomfortable to use. But I decided to go with it and I'm really glad I did.
It all went very smoothly and even cleaning the parts in between for re-use on the next ingredient wasn't too bad--next time I'll plan ahead to be able to soak them in a bowl. The 2% cheese worked like a dream, the full fat cheddar was a bit gummier and more of it had to be teased out of the drum with a fork when I was done, but it shredded it all with very little cheese left over in the parts. The butter gummed up in the drum a little too, might have gone better if it had been frozen solid. But again, no unshredded lumps or lots of waste stuck in the parts. The pecans were no trouble at all.
The suction held tight to the counter and was easy to engage/disengage. The parts fit together and came apart pretty easily even given that this was my first time learning to use it. The handle was easy to rotate and the thing I loved most of all was how quiet it was! Much quieter than the shredder attachment on my mixer, and much less to clean up afterwards as well. And much quieter than trying to break down nuts by pounding the bag on the counter with a rubber mallet like a chump. I had suitably low containers to grate this stuff into, but it occurred to me that when I finally get a nice undermount sink I'll be able to lock it down at the sink edge and sit a bowl in the sink to shred large quantities into if I want.
If this lasts a few years I will consider this money well spent. It seems well made for plastic. Looking forward to seeing how it works with veggies, like carrots and squash. But I mainly got it for grating cheese, and for that, it is a superstar.
