Customers Say
Buyers tell us that the Cambom grater cuts through both cheese and vegetable pieces in about half of the time required by a typical hand-held grater, and in many cases requires significantly less work.
Most buyers have found it useful to be able to select among three interchangeable cutting drums so that you could easily move back and forth between coarse cut shredded products, finely shredded products and sliced products.
Numerous consumers told us that the product's food pusher is very helpful in keeping their hands from being too close to the grater's cutting edges.
The most common uses we've seen for this product include: cheese; carrots; cucumbers; nuts; chocolate; potatoes; and numerous other types of vegetables.
We've heard many comments that cleaning up the product's removable parts is relatively easy to do after using.
A few reviewers mentioned that while the suction base has worked well on all but a few smooth countertops, it will sometimes lose its suction when used on rough, uneven or dirty countertops.

Bottom Line
The Cambom Rotary Cheese Grater is an effective kitchen appliance that will allow you to shred your cheese, vegetables, nuts, chocolate and other items of your choice quickly and easily without using electricity. This product has three drums that are interchangeable; this means they have different size holes in them to grate at different sizes as well as a food pusher so your hands do not get close to the blade. While the suction base provides stability on most smooth countertops, performance varies when used on surfaces with texture. Overall, if you use the grating function frequently or often slice food, this product is a great alternative to using a traditional box grater.
