does this grater work well for vegetables also

I've never used it for vegetables, but I would imagine they'd have to be a hard veggie, like carrot or frozen pretty solid! And cut kind of small!

I've never tried vegetables, Linda, but don't see why not. If something like celery it might clog but others may be fine. Good Luck and let us know.Contessa

Hi,I have not tried it but I am sure it would work in principle--there is plenty of power in the motor and nothing that would preclude running vegetables through it. However, I am not sure this is a great use for the grater. The hopper is small and so the quantities of vegetable would be pretty tiny. Also, the blade of the drum is quite fine, finer than I would ever use with a vegetable. So I guess the summary would be that it would work in a pinch but there are many better solutions, some that do not need a motorized unit and are still quite effective.

I would not recommend this for anything but hard cheese. It is underpowered for anything else and very hard to clean. Easier to grate by hand. There is only one size for the grater and you can not purchase any other sizes. We gave ours away to the goodwill.

I haven't tried vegetables, but it does hard cheeses well. I think it will work. Try it. It is a good machine.

Yes. It has several different grater plates to do almost any style you would wnat. Just know that carrots and suger have a high sugar content so use sparingly if anyone has a high blood sugar problem.

No, I dont believe it would work for that. I use it to cut fondant for cakes and it works wonderful. I dont believe that you would have any luck trying to use it on vegetables.

Yes it can work well with firm vegetables like carrots, zucchinis, turnips, rutabagas, cucumbers, large radishes and more...

Hi, I've used it for other vegies like carrots, cucumbers, peppers, anything you would grate.

I have only used it for carrots but I imagine zucchini or small cucumbers might work. For the results you get with the carrots alone, it is well worth the price.

Yes Irene, I have and the double bladed chopper cuts through it like butter. It chops veggies effortlessly!

It is a strip slicer so cuts things into julienne strips, so with an onion it will act more like a grater than a slicer. I use it to grate zucchini and onions for my quinoa turkey meatballs recipe. And to julienne vegetables like carrots, zucchini, beets, cucumber, for salads etc

I've used it for all types of potatoes and sweet potatoes and squash and cucumbers. so far no problems - although overly ripe (soft) ones can mush a little. I am happy with mine.

I use it for soups such as pumpkin soup etc. You should be fine with gravy and soups.

Yes. It works for any vegetable. I have used it to make sauerkraut many times. Follow instructions carefully to activate culture.

Absolutely! Great at making thin potato slices and lots of other veggies. We use ours almost daily.

I've used it on beets and daikon and it works great on both. Very nice in salad or as a garnish.

yes this works well for most fruits. For harder veggies i steam longer but it still mashes very well. I recommend it.

I did not try it for vegetables. I think it would work well. It's just the cleanup that is really the problem for me.

I have used mine to cut 'paper' thin for meats. I have not tried vegetables yet.

Yes it can work very well with big and long vegetables. there's no container holding the vegs and it actually works better if the veg is thicker.
