How to Choose the Right Grater
Consider what you grate the most: fine zests call for a microplane or zester, while harder cheeses and vegetables do well on a box or multi-sided grater. If storage is tight, choose a compact or foldable design. For frequent use, look for graters with comfortable handles and easy-to-empty catchers.

Joseph Joseph Graters — Customer FAQ (New Zealand)
What types of graters are available in this collection?
The collection includes handheld zesters, multi-sided box graters, flat rasp graters and compact microplanes. Each style suits different tasks like zesting citrus, grating cheese, or shredding vegetables.
Are Joseph Joseph graters easy to clean?
Yes — most models feature smooth finishes and removable catch trays that rinse clean easily. For stuck bits, use a soft brush and warm soapy water. Check care notes for dishwasher compatibility on each product.
Can these graters handle hard cheese and root vegetables?
Yes — the sturdier box graters and microplanes are suited to harder cheeses and vegetables like carrots or beetroot. Use firm pressure but avoid forcing the tool beyond normal use to maintain blade life.
Are the blades sharp enough straight out of the box?
Yes — Joseph Joseph graters are shipped ready to use with sharp, well-finished cutting surfaces. Handle blades carefully and store them safely to protect both the grater and your hands.
Do these graters come with a storage solution?
Some designs include integrated catch trays or compact storage clips. Others are slim enough to tuck into a drawer. Check individual product descriptions for included storage features.
Can children use these graters safely?
Grating involves sharp blades, so children should only use them under close adult supervision. Consider using protective gloves or a safer tool designed for kids when appropriate.
Are Joseph Joseph graters dishwasher safe?
Some models are dishwasher-safe, while others recommend hand washing to maintain the blade edge and handle finish. Refer to each product’s care instructions for the best cleaning method.
How do I keep the grater blades in good condition?
Avoid grating extremely hard objects not intended for the tool, rinse soon after use, dry thoroughly and store in a dry place. Regular cleaning and gentle use will keep blades performing well.
Which grater is best for citrus zest?
For fine citrus zest, choose a microplane or fine rasp-style grater. These produce fine, even zest without removing the bitter white pith.
Do graters include warranties?
Warranty terms vary by model and retailer. Check the product page for warranty details, and contact our customer support if you need help with a return or replacement.
