There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
I was initially put off by how lightweight the grater was, but after inserting a nutmeg, I was impressed by the claw that grabs it and forces it firmly against the laser-cut (they're proud of that fact) blade. Just a few easy turns (the top black part turns with the handle, so I still have to remember to grip it by the brushed metal part) and a flurry of finely shaved nutmeg particles floats out and dissolves into the target dish. There's a cap that covers the business end so you can grind awhile and tap the results into a measuring spoon. I have found that three or four turns on an individual portion of mac and cheese gives an ample sample of that incomparable fresh nutmeg flavor that makes all the difference.
We used to have a William Bounds Nut Twister mill with the clear acrylic top that worked pretty well for a couple of years until I dropped it and the top broke into several pieces. This unit appears sturdier, though I haven't dropped it yet (I'll update if I do) and, though I haven't gone through a whole nutmeg yet, the claw appears to apply quite a bit of force with some serious-looking teeth and stops just above the blade; two abiding complaints with the Bounds mill was that the last 25% or so of a nutmeg was left unused, and that all too often the nutmeg would stick on the blade and the driver would lose its grip and instead inscribe a useless circle in the top of the nutmeg. This unit should get you further on each meg.
So, so far so good. I would definitely recommend this to a friend.

08 June 2013 update: the grater is a little workhorse; I love how it uses almost the entire nut. We use it frequently and it never disappoints or scrapes our fingers/knuckles. Still recommend it highly.
Update. I decided to try another nutmeg grinder which does not require the bottom to be tightened. It is the
Microplane 48060 Manual Spice Mill - Cinnamon Grinder and Nutmeg Grater - Black
This is now my favorite. Fewer parts to go asunder and produces wonderful nutmeg shavings.

So I bought a nutmeg grinder, a clear acrylic one, it seemed to be doing the job but it didn't do it easily and eventually gave up on me. I went back to hand grating and dropping my precious nutmegs into my hot chocolate, rice pudding etc.
I looked at all the nutmeg grinders, read the reviews and decided the Gefu looked the best, didn't get it for a long time though.
Finally I bought one and I have been using it daily for a couple of weeks now and it grates nutmeg effortlessly and looks good too! It comes apart to clean, and it has storage for 3 spare nutmegs when one is in the grinding chamber. It also grates hazelnuts, but I haven't tried that as I don't have any at the moment.
I wondered if it would grate chocolate too.
So far this is well worth the price, and if it continues for the duration of the 5 year warranty I will be a very happy bunny!
Update: it's 7 years now and I have used the grinder daily and it's still as good as the day it arrived. The cap had broken, and I recently contacted Gefu to see if I could get another one and they very kindly sent one from Germany. I still highly recommend this grater and Gefu customer services.
