Great grater, poor durability
The grater itself works extremely well. We mainly use it for Parmesan and it is very sharp, efficient and requires very little pressure.
Unfortunately, the durability has been very disappointing. Our original grater failed after around 15 months when the grating plate separated from the surrounding frame. Dalstrong replaced it under warranty, but the replacement has now failed in exactly the same way after a very similar period.
The replacement had very light domestic use — probably no more than around 30 uses, almost entirely for grating Parmesan — so I do not consider this normal wear and tear.
Having two separate graters suffer the same structural failure after such limited use makes me question the durability of the design or the way the grating plate is secured.
Dalstrong’s customer service has been responsive, which I appreciate, but at this price point I would expect the product itself to last considerably longer.
Excellent performance when new, but poor long-term durability. Two stars.
