i did not have luck with grating carrots with the fine disk, but the one that is bigger was fine. i use the fine disk for nuts, chocolate etc, and the bigger one for carrots. the bigger one makes the pieces approximately to what one would get on the regular hand grater for apples. i hope this make sense to you.

Yes, the grate has plastic coating on it, so you have be careful not to put on the hot pan or pots on it....

Yes they work VERY if whole carrots cut in half... also works well for kale...one trick, do not wash the produce until ready to use keeps much longer! hope that helps

Yes just yesterday I did a cup cake batter with carrots I just had to flip the dispenser upside down and spray it with water to make sure no carrots are stuck at the end , also soak it in water for five minutes before you start washing it

Hi Emma, it grates carrots to a fine paste. We do not have attachment that will slice. Hope that helps - Brian Vaisnoras President Grandma Anns

I never used it for carrots, but the blades seem sharp enough to handle it.

The carrots would be fine enough for me for a carrot cake. And soooo easy! This is the only way to go when it comes to shredding carrots!

I haven't tried carrot cake, but I have shredded zucchini with it. It is just the right size; small shred, not mushy. I think it would work wonderfully, in fact you've given me a good idea to try it!

The grate is thin but sturdy. Not unlike the steel a cake cooling rack is made of. I do clean my grate after every use but I am not that obsessed with returning it to the appearance of being brand new. Evidence of baked on oil around the joins does occur with regular use.

I have not tried to cut carrots, but it works with potatoes so I would think it would work with the carrots.

I haven't tried carrots yet with it. it shreds potatoes and cheese nicely. It can slice sticks of pepperoni but not very well you have to push pretty hard. I think it would shred carrots nicely. It works great and I love that you can store stuff after you shred it.

Yes, - I use mine to make drinks with apple, pineapple, kale, strawberries, spinach, bananas, etc for health drinks, but it is not a juicer, so don't know about raw carrots...cooked carrots, broccoli cooked potatoes - yes - made cream of broccoli. Will do ice, frozen berries, etc. alsoBob/CA

If you use the dough hook and don't put the speed too high, then it works fine for fruit cake with cherries. Don't be tempted to use the flat beater, because the space between the blade and the bowl is too tight and your cherries will get mashed.

It cuts raw carrots quickly and easily -- grating or slicing. I've never tried beets, but as long as they fit into the hopper, I don't think there'd be a problem. I've had no trouble grating hard cheese (like asiago), so I think it would handle beets.

I've never tried carrots BUT it can turn raw ice cubes into fine snow so I'd have to say yes! It's a great powerful blender.

No. Use a coarser grater for a potato. This is very fine and good for tasks like zesting lemon and orange peel, and grating ginger.
