I just tried the multi-grater and slicer for the first time. I used the course grater to try to shred cheese. The cheese just gummed up and got stuck in the shoot. I also had a very hard time getting the blade back off. Does anyone have any tips?
 
What cheese did you use? I haven't tried cheese in mine yet, but I know that some cheeses are very difficult to grate unless they've been in the freezer for about 20 minutes.
 
I have not had any issues with cheese, but doing a show last night, the blade got stuck, and even this morning I cannot remove the blade. I was unable to continue using the product during the show and was a bit embarrassed. Any tips on how to remove the stuck blade?

I tried the darn thing again, this time freezing the cheese for 20 before trying. Same thing. It mashes more than it shreds, doesn't stay stuck to the counter, and my blade got stuck again. I thought I was going to break it while trying to get it back out. I think this one is just a dud.
 
Hi there! I'm sorry to hear that you had some trouble using the multi-grater and slicer. It can definitely take some practice to get the hang of using it. Here are a few tips that might help:1. Make sure the cheese is at room temperature before grating. Cold cheese can be harder to grate and can get stuck in the chute.2. Use a light touch when grating. Pressing too hard can cause the cheese to get stuck in the chute.3. Make sure the blade is securely attached before using. If it's loose, it can cause issues with grating.4. Try grating smaller amounts of cheese at a time. This can help prevent it from getting stuck in the chute.I hope these tips help! If you continue to have trouble, please don't hesitate to reach out to me for further assistance. Happy cooking!
