Overview
Cranking the handle spins an acid-etched stainless drum while a closed-top plunger presses food against it. The grater anchors to the counter with a suction base, and a table clamp holds it on textured surfaces.
Hands stay clear of the blade because the plunger and insert guide hold food in the chamber, and the steep chamber angle feeds the drum smoothly. One drum means one grate size, and the listing does not say how fine or coarse it cuts.
Who it's for
Pasta nights and baking prep, where a bowl of cheese or chocolate gets grated at once, suit this crank grater. Anyone needing a dishwasher-safe tool or multiple cut sizes should look at other designs.
Pros and cons
- Plunger guards fingers from the drum
- Suction base grips smooth counters
- Clamp option for textured surfaces
- Comes apart for cleaning
- Drum grate size not listed
- Hand wash only
- Single drum, no alternate cuts
Performance notes
Output depends on how firmly the plunger presses food into the spinning drum and how evenly the handle turns. The steep chamber angle lets grated food drop out instead of packing. Stability comes from the suction seal on smooth tops or the clamp on textured ones.

Frequently asked questions
Will the Zyliss drum grater hold on a tiled or textured countertop?
Yes, per the description: the suction base grips smooth surfaces and an additional table clamp secures it on textured ones.
Is this the full Zyliss grater or only a replacement drum?
The item highlight mentions a replacement drum, but the title, included components and description describe a complete drum grater with handle, plunger and suction base.
Can the Zyliss grater slice fruit and chop nuts too?
Zyliss describes grating cheese, slicing fruit, shredding carrots and chopping nuts, all with the single included drum, so expect one cut style for each.
