I had many, many years this model, or perhaps slightly different predecessor. After 20 or more years of this last year had to be replaced. Unfortunately, I have allowed myself to tempt me ... starting with r buy a grater a renowned manufacturer with T ending. Since I was unfortunately totally disappointed me a year and downright rumquälte so I got myself three weeks before the general purpose LEIFHEIT Grater again in my life! Just awesome! Keeps its promises, the different inserts are versatile and all parts are easy to clean. Since I have no dishwasher, I can not comment on their use. Please note; the cutting surfaces have a slightly bluish protective film on it that you could possibly easily missed upon delivery. Note the manufacturer, may take a more distinct color for the slide. I hope that there is friction at the next exchange in 30 years even !!
