Lxnoap Lemon Zester Grater,Stainless Steel Orange Citru Kitchen Peeler Tool with Channel Knife

This zester will do the job, but takes a little effort. It's almost like it isn't sharp enough to penetrate the lemon skins.

Was looking for a stainless steel tool to scrape strips of lemon and orange peels to make extracts. Fast, worked well. EZPZ. Dishwasher safe.

I saw an ad for a tool which looked very similar to use with hard butter. I decided this would do just as well for about a fourth of the price. I'm glad to say it works! If you want zest from a lemon, lime, or orange, this works great. If you want to spread hard butter, try this. You will be pleased!

Love the easy way this zest. Quick and easy

Quality is OK. I wouldn't call it heavy duty, it's actually very light weight but rigid enough for the job. It is all stainless, no problem in the dishwasher. The zester works fine but the channel knife on mine is pretty dull, if I had a tiny file I would try to sharpen it.

The zester/grater works fairly well, not extremely even, but most of the time you aren't looking for very even zest, and it was a $6 tool. The main reason for the lower rating is the channel knife. It is very shallow, cuts out narrow twists, and even more uneven, which for a citrus twist you want the evenness, rendering the channel knife part of the tool almost useless.Worth the money, yes. But if your main interest is for a channel knife, go find a dedicated channel knife.

I bought these for making pomanders by peeling parts of the orange rind and adding cloves in the rind. . They turned out great for Christmas!!

I found this tool to be very difficult to use. You have to apply too much pressure to get results. I prefer a sharper, easier to use tool. I bought a different type altogether and like it much better.
