    Types of Cheese Gratershttp://www.wisegeek.com/what-are-the-different-types-of-cheese-graters.htm:
    Box Cheese Grater - When looking to buy a cheese grater consider the space it takes up. Box graters can be quite bulky while flat hand held models are much easier to store.
    Mandolin Cheese Grater
    Rotary Cheese Grater - Rotary or electric models can be more expensive but they can save you time.


    If you own a food processor consider buying a grater attachment for it. Food processor graters are fast and have a large capacity but cleaning is more complex as the whole machine needs to be washed. Storage and cost are also issues with a food processor.
