@@lynnstlaurent6789 I've had a Tremor since my freshman year of high school from a genetic condition. Having that sort of issue can really change how you think about things. Not to mention I'm a lefty, so a lot of gadgets and things already aren't made for me lol.
Yeah, feels pretty incomplete without it. If the time i save using the device is more than lost when i gotta clean it, its not worth it in the end. Pretty important info.
I concur. The rotary grater is where I really thought about the cleaning aspect. Looks like it works great, but if it's a pain to clean, the usability drops to nil and my buy rating would be a zero.
You can always tell the people who wash the dishes in the house XD, I always have the exact same thought with each and every one of these videos. My sister has some dexterity issues so I'm always on the lookout for gadgets that can grant her some more independence in the kitchen, but in the end it always comes back to, "no way is she gonna be able to easily wash that"
@@kanoaikawach I think after some years when the novelty and the scams would have faded off and people will be more vigilant, NFTs could actually be useful. Definitely not yet tho.
I bought one similar on Amazon, I like it. Came with different blades to use and you can even use it for some vegetables, make homemade wavy potato chips and so on. Doesn't work so well with onions though, they get caught between the grater and clear plastic cone and just slide around.
@@skeleton5459 do it. I work in a kitchen mostly as a helper, but that thing is a god send. You can grate enough cheese for a month in like 30 minutes.
I have an electric version that works on the same principle, we love it. A whole block of cheddar can be shredded in like 2 minutes, it comes in clutch during holiday dinner prep (we use a lot of cheese)
Since I have a disability affecting the use of my hands, I feel like the "left-handed oil test" is like, 100% effective for telling me whether or not I'd be able to use a given product lol.
I apologise unreservedly for my comments on previous videos about "lubing up" which attracted 1,000 likes. And will take the advice to "get my mind out of the gutter". No further comment at this time.
The rotary grater is amazing. Went and bought it after seeing this and it works amazing. Beyond that it is surprisingly easy to clean which was a big concern but no issues.
You shouldn't judge a book by it's cover, but I think it would be nice to have Dan discuss his first impression of the tools (before usage), for the obvious/shock entertainment... and also to see his expertise.
That last one was just a complicated Osthyvel (Cheese slicer) with a grater stapled onto it. The basic model is a distinctly effective method to get even slices of cheese. Still weird to not see it outside of scandinavia.
I was thinking along similar lines (Dutch raised) much of the devices here either exist in Dutch households in much more effective designs or have an alternative that is better. I live in South Africa myself, but will never use a knife for cutting cheese on sandwiches. The cheese plane will always cut a cleaner slice.
I'm just so happy to see a real product review show instead of a collection of commercials. Trying to look for reviews and just getting their advertisement is frustrating
Mr. Formosa, would y'all consider also doing the left handed oil test for the more "conventional" tools as well? For example, I see you compared the push down cheese slicer to using a sharp knife, but not everyone can use a sharp knife because of different dexterity issues. That would really help if you could include them from time to time, if you can tell that a new product that you're testing was designed to make certain things easier for only a specific group of people.
I'm loving these product design videos, thanks! One measure that might also be important would be "ease of cleanup" too. Whenever I think of how a kitchen gadget could make a task easier, I always have to think whether it would be worth the cleanup it requires.
"We're selling this segment of the video as an NFT for 60 million dollars" Guys, that's a steal, because it's gonna be worth 120 million in 2 weeks. That's how NFTs work!
I love trying to dissect some of the truly wrongheaded gadgets that end up on here, but it is refreshing to see the rotary cheese grater and immediately be like, oh hey, that one rules.
One interesting thing that would be great to review in these videos, at least for some of the gadgets, is the cleanup factor. We own a similar item to the rotary cheese grater, and while it does a GREAT job grating a lot of cheese in very little time and effort, it's such a pain to clean the cheese bits in all the nooks and crannies of the mechanism, that I often just default to my box grater.
Maybe you could try spraying the "blade" part with a bit of cooking spray/some kind of neutral tasting oil before use? Not sure, but I think that could help with the cheese sticking, thus making cleanup a bit easier.
Nothing beats the OG Scandinavian cheese slicer, the osthyvel. Together with A-ha's Take On Me, it's probably the most important thing to come out of Norway.
I have the rotary grater and it is absolutely fantastic. One thing that the review didn't give the prominence it deserved is how much better it does the job. Whenever I used a box grater, the cheese has a tendency to stick together, something which has never happened with the rotary one. This makes sprinkling it over dishes, or piling on bread/toast so much easier. There are many versions of what looks an identical product, many claiming it is for veg too (made quick work of carrots - provided you put several in at a time to fill the tube) - for some reason, some suppliers say that you shouldn't grate onions in it - no idea if that is because of the onions structure, or that the onion smells and flavours are too readily absorbed. Although if it did work and you grated enough onions, a second dedicated model could be justified at the price.
I wish you had discussed the cleanability of the rotary grater. How does one remove the barrel for washing and how difficult is that for arthritic hands?
i like how he tests the usability. im disabled in ways where i have lots of hand pain, its nice to know some people do this since it helps people like me ^^
They make a hand held version of the table rotary grater that works far better with no need for suction. They use them at Olive Garden and I highly recommend getting one.
These types of graters have been around for at least 40 years and while they weren't as amazing at first, they are insultingly easy to clean today. You can often change the blade type so you can grate parmesan, mozzarella or even make thin slices of cucumber or tomato.
I just bought recently a rotary cheese grate and have the same as your redesign suggestion. I am loving it coz I can use it on veggies. There's option as well to change it to a slicer. Perfect for making salads and kimchies
The last gadget sort of already exist in Sweden. There are two versions: one slices and one grates. It was invented in 1925 and is called an "osthyvel".
holy cannoli, your recommendations on usuability/ergonomics are great! How come designers of these products have not thought about them is beyond me.... :D Thanks for this great video!
The Fondoodler looks like something Vector from Despicable Me would accidentally take instead of his supervillain gun. Appropriate for the NFT joke in the middle, because a villain absolutely would also do that.
I was the family designated cheese grater as a kid & I used the hand held metal Mouli grater. It’s still available and I’ve got one. It’s all I’ll ever need.
My Mother has that rotatory cheese grater. She uses it as an vegetable grater too, and there is a minor issue, the blades on the actual grater are pretty dull, no issue with cheese but with veggies its takes a lot of force to grate them. Those laser cut graters are very sharp, the combination of booth products would be so nice.
Been binge watching all these videos with dan, its very relaxing to watch him work, and i appreciate his attention to how easy gadgets are to use for people with bad hand strength
We had a rotary cheese grater you had to clamp to the table for like 20 years, and we have a suction one for the past 10, weirdly it has a lever and a bigger suction, your surface has to be as smooth as possible, so if your countertop has ridges as a few wooden ones have it's actually quite useless. The advantage over the clamp is of course the ease of putting it up.
I bought that rotary cheese cutter. It was marketed as a multi-vegetable slicer. I hated it cuz I was grating carrots and the suction wasn't well. 💀💀💀 cheese vs carrot... 💀💀💀
I found the left-hand oil test to be an interesting consideration, and the stuff about angled guillotine/knife blades and staggered cheese grater stuff to be interesting as well.
@14:24 this is about the same device the dutch are using for years.... minus the adjustments and the grater... those cheese cutters have the better lip to rest the cheese on like you suggested... some even have a shorter blade (the part where the grating bit is on) on the end to cut younger cheese so it would not stick to the blade when it cuts.. this is another issue you might have with cutting with the adjustable grater slicer.
I don’t know if she still has it but my mother used to have a cutting board specifically for cheese that had an attached blade that went up and down across the board. So you would push the cheese along the board as you cut. I loved slicing cheese as a kid because of that thing, and I remember being so happy when my mother let me use it for the first time once I was old enough 😋
I can't say how relieved I was when I saw the rotary grater was so good at it's job. I HATE using a box grater because it takes so frickin long and the cheese has a habit of breaking in my hand. A little disappointed that the last tool wasn't good. It looked interesting.
They cheated with the cheese gun, they didn't include the time in the micro to heat the cheese. I think that was designed more for kids so the heating element isn't very hot. I don't see that appealing much to adults.
The first grater is based on a very old design! My grandmother's nut grinder is similar, only it's made with wood instead of plastic, and it has a C-clamp for fastening to a counter or table instead of a suction cup. Works great, easy to clean.
Zyliss made a similar rotary grater 25 years ago. Theirs actually had a lever to activate the suction base. I loved it... and used it until the rubber suction pad cracked & it wouldn't stick any more.
Dan reads our comments why do i feel so loved by him listening us but i love see him redesign his old products because they do say more improved on your own work makes it better not bad to improve but its actually good

What was the left hand joke
@@lexymartin6841 as in what the joke was about or when the joke was?
@@learningchannel3850 what was it about?
I thoroughly enjoy his videos my hands are disabled so his left hand oil testing really helps me figure out what might help me
So am I. These videos are incredibly helpful!
yes! seeing someone keep disabled people and people with dexterity problems in mind always warns my heart and gives me ideas of things to purchase!
I developed a tremor and arthritis in the last few years and never realized what an ableist I have been my whole life.

@a • 2178 years later It doesn't
it would be so good if they added a "cleaning" segment
Yeah, feels pretty incomplete without it. If the time i save using the device is more than lost when i gotta clean it, its not worth it in the end. Pretty important info.
I never thought about this. I wonder if the assumption is that people would just you a dish washer since most products tend to be dishwasher safe
I concur. The rotary grater is where I really thought about the cleaning aspect. Looks like it works great, but if it's a pain to clean, the usability drops to nil and my buy rating would be a zero.
@@RijackiTorment OMG I had this SAME THOUGHT!!!! Great minds think alike!

The rotary cheese grater is actually genius ngl
i work as a chef that has to grate cheese regularly for a restaurant and i am considering buying one. that would be a game changer for me!
That's a 70' design.
I bought one similar on Amazon, I like it. Came with different blades to use and you can even use it for some vegetables, make homemade wavy potato chips and so on. Doesn't work so well with onions though, they get caught between the grater and clear plastic cone and just slide around.
If you have a KitchenAid you can get the attachment. I got one recently and it makes shredding cheese so easy!
@@skeleton5459 do it. I work in a kitchen mostly as a helper, but that thing is a god send. You can grate enough cheese for a month in like 30 minutes.
Last time I was this early Dan had only designed kitchen gadgets for 38 years.
early to you but in my part of the world im so glad im ending my day watching Dan!
Last time I was this early Dan didn’t speed up the time when testing 😂
THIS IS A FUNNY COMMENT
The devil liked this comment
I DIDNT REALIZE IT CHANGED OMFG
One thing the rotary grater has over a regular grater is safety! It's not hard for me to cut myself on a normal grater!
Look ma, no grated finger!
Great for every non-cannibal.
@@FelisImpurrator I'm a cannibal and I think it's great too.

It cant get too hot or itl burn, but more power when its cold would be great
Compared to the time spent putting cheese in the microwave? think damnit!
agree
This guy is amazing. Could watch him on a loop.
Any chance you could add in how easy it is to clean each of the products that you test? Also maybe talk about ease of assembly?
The first grater is based on a very old design! My grandmother's nut grinder is similar, only it's made with wood instead of plastic, and it has a C-clamp for fastening to a counter or table instead of a suction cup. Works great, easy to clean.
When are you guys bringing back the pros try to guess the expensive food series?
Zyliss made a similar rotary grater 25 years ago. Theirs actually had a lever to activate the suction base. I loved it... and used it until the rubber suction pad cracked & it wouldn't stick any more.
The first one would be nicer if it was smaller, its something I look at when buying for my kitchen. Space is a commodity
