Grip Grater is the ultimate kitchen grater, with replaceable plates, folding storage, and multiple positions for easier, more efficient grating. You can use it either vertically as a regular hand-held grater, or horizontally so you can grate directly into a plate or bowl. Grip Grater is perfect for whipping up hash browns, garnishing salad with a topping of carrots, or making a good ol’ pile of shredded cheese (hello, taco night!).
Features:
-Three positions: folded up for compact storage, arms together for hand-held grating, and arms out at 180 degrees for grating over a bowl or dish.
- Four interchangeable stainless steel grater plates – one with large holes, one with small holes, one for coarse grating, and one for slicing. Plates have a plastic border for easy snapping in and out of the main unit.
- Robust hinge mechanism allows you to apply pressure while the grater is supported by its arms over a bowl
- Stainless steel grate on a hard plastic frame, with TPE non-slip grips on the arms and under the hinges.
Dimensions:
Folded up – 5.11in x 7.48in x 1.1in (130mm x 190mm x 28mm)
Unfolded with arms extended – 12in x 7.48in x 1.1in (305mm x 190mm x 28mm)
It grates very well and the plates are easy to change. I do wish that there were two settings for the "wings." While it's great that they open flat for use over a bowl, I would like to see a setting where it would stand up slightly for grating over a plate.
The best part of this is each plate pops out with a push or two from the back. I do wish the arms would lock into place at 45,90, and 135 degrees, but as is it is great. The material feels good and I enjoyed eating grated carrots with my dinner. : )
great idea
