Microplane 34006 4-Sided Box Grater Reviews
(1)This is Microplane’s second attempt at a box grater, and I think they nailed it. The “blades” are as good as the usual Microplane products, but the main features I like about this grater are:
* removable plate. One of the front panels slides out so that you can get inside the “box” to clean it well. I do not have a dishwasher so this is pretty important to me.
* grippy feet. So there’s no plastic “food catcher” on the bottom, but I really like how the grater stays rock solid on the cutting board, plate, or mixing bowl.
* comfy handle. Easy to grip.
The plastic storage sleeve to protect yourself and the grater is nice also.
Made in USA.

I have bought all the other microplane graters and if you have even one of them, you know of the quality and the workmanship of microplane. This grater does not disappoint. I absolutely LOVE it.
1. It has a non-slip handle and feet so it feels very solid and secure when I’m using it.
2. One of the panels pops out so you can really clean if you need to do it by hand. I just put it in my dishwasher–no worries.
3. The four different panels makes it versatile so you don’t have to go looking for different graters. It has a course side, fine side, ribbon and slicer.
4. The clear protective cover over the entire grater gives added security.
I know that it’s a little on the pricey side but (sorry amazon!) I went directly to the microplane website. There is a sale section on it where they sell non-perfect items at a discount. I bought mine for $24.95 plus I believe $5 shipping. I was worried that I was going to get some hideously mangled product but honestly, I don’t see anything wrong with mine. That discount is only until quantities are available so if you’re in the market for a new box grater, you might want to check it out now.
I’ve been so very happy with my grater–I know you’ll be too! This is one of the best kitchen purchases I’ve made.
