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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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 I was younger we had a different kind of rotary grater, that had disk-shaped grater-inserts and its sucktion cup had a lever that you would turn 180°. Worked for everything smaller than a large cucumber. We used it for everything from cabbage to nuts... Rarely for cheese...
