 Must-have accessory for MicroplanesMar 12, 2009
By D. Rogers

I've used a lot of Microplane products: imitators don't hold up. Even the Microplanes with plastic bodies eventually fall apart. Finally I purchased the Professional Series Microplanes (fine and medium) with steel frames, however, and they hold up like nothing else. And they really handle foods great!
The only problem with Microplanes (and other shredders) is the danger to knuckles and fingertips. Especially if you grate nutmeg or grate the last nubbin of parmesan.
These sliders are an inexpensive, durable, ideal solution. They fit easily on the steel frames and slide back and forth while holding the food to the shredding surface without risking your flesh. Great solution!
These are true must-haves for the kitchen along with the Professional Series Microplane graters and shredders.

 A little disappointedDec 30, 2009
By J. Osborn
I purchased this because I have the professional fine and coarse graters and they are SHARP. Feeling that these sharp graters presented a danger I ordered this attachment. I really wanted this to work. The attachment leaves too much of a gap between the grater and the bottom of the attachment. Anything of a larger size works well with this attachment, but smaller things don't work at all. During the holidays I make a salad that calls for grated cranberries. I tried this attachment to grate the cranberries. What a mess! The cranberries maybe moved one or two times across the grater before going under the attachment. Adding more cranberries didn't work because the ungrated portions of the cranberries would pop out from between the grater and the attachment.
My recommendation would be to purchase this (after all the price isn't that much) to use with cheese, chocolate, larger fruits such as apples, etc. Do NOT purchase it with the intention of using it with garlic, berries, grapes, etc. and having it work well.

 Excellant accessoryDec 31, 2009

This is not perfect as it doesn't get the last slivers of chocolate or garlic but those are usable in sauces anyway. If you are grating thin chocolate like bars or the bakers bars then stack squares vertically (this lets you do more faster). The last slivers will melt in sauces or hot chocolate without problems the same for cheese. If its for decoration then save them for later use or pig out and eat them.
I find it more useful for soft stuff with the course grater. I have some cut prof gloves (not micro plane) and they are way too clunky. Just don't obsess over the last bits.
Not a must have but nice for some things.

No more knuckle bitesJun 24, 2010
By CAK
Before I changed over to the professional models, I owned the grater attachment, and it saved me lots of nicked fingernails and chewed up knuckles. I am glad that I finally purchased the one to fit this series of graters. I swear by my Microplane graters, and appreciate the added safety of having this little extra. PS: I passed the original one on to my daughter, who still has the home series of the graters, and she uses it a lot, too.
