So what you need to know is that Sapper, one of the designers who has been with us the longest, the creator of some of our most innovative objects, in his own home is in charge grating cheese for the whole family. Thus his inspiration was based on extensive personal experience on this theme and this time around he has come up with a novelty that will be the joy of consumers of grated cheese. “Todo” has a truncated cone shaft that is exceptionally long and will grate enough cheese to satisfy the requirements for one portion just with one complete stroke. An excellent example of an object to exhibit on the table or in the kitchen, but at the same time it boasts a precise, state-of-the-art functional performance that just about transforms into playful gestural expressiveness one of the most boring and least qualifying culinary operations.

Richard Sapper
Richard Sapper was born in 1932 in Munich, where he pursued courses in philosophy, anatomy and engineering. He began his design career in the styling department of Daimler Benz in Stuttgart, before transferring to Milan, where he worked first for the architect Gio Ponti. In the early 1960s, Sapper began to collaborate with the architect Marco Zanuso together they acted as design consultants for Brionvega. He has developed and designed a wide variety of products, ranging from ships and cars, to computers and electronics, and furniture and kitchen appliances. Richard Sapper has received numerous awards for his products, and his designs are represented in the permanent collections of many museums internationally. He died on 31 December 2015.
Founded in 1921 as a “Workshop for the processing of brass and nickel silver sheet metal, with foundry”, Alessi has always stood out for the high quality of its products.
In almost a century of history, the company has gradually evolved to become one of the leading “Factories of Italian design”, capable of applying its expertise and excellence in design management to many different product types.
Open to change and international development, Alessi at the same time has a strong bond with the traditions and cultural background of its area and continues to be synonymous with handcrafted objects produced with the help of machines.
Since the Company’s Foundation in 1921 the Majority of Alessi Products have Been Manufactured through the Cold Working of Metals, a Tradition that is Kept Alive Today by the Skilled Workers at the Crusinallo Plant in Omegna.
Over time, Alessi also began to work with many other materials, such as porcelain, glass, wood, and plastic. A specific production method was developed for each one. Even when production takes place outside the Crusinallo plant, Alessi’s guidelines ensure the company’s original production quality standards, continuing to reconcile industrial technological complexity with an artisanal eye for detail.
The objects produced from the different materials are manufactured in various production plants across the world. They remain original Alessi objects in that they are conceived with the same design excellence and produced with the same attention to quality that sets the company’s products apart.

This is the best cheese grater ever made. Such a grand idea. So simple. Increase grating surface to increase efficiency–by an order of magnitude. I lusted after this kitchen tool for ages but only recently had enough disposable cash to justify spending $100 on a cheese grater. Worth every dollar. And you can use it to pose as a unicorn in between grating sessions. Bravo Richard Sapper once again!

I loved the design of this so much and being Italian, I grate a lot of cheese over a lot of dishes. But I use another grater. This one is just too pretty and too hard to clean and dry every time. I use this mostly for special occasions or to impress company and it does look really amazing tucked away on my counterspace. I do agree that the handle is somewhat flimsy, I thought it would be more sturdy too. I was able to find a replica for like $12 at homegoods but it was soooo much smaller and not as nice as this one. This is definetly a good item to keep on your wish list for holidays so you dont feel guilty for spending $100 on a cheese grater – but if you do, you’ll love it.

The madre of all cheese graters. Want a showstopper of a table side cheese grater at home or a restaurant? This is the one, no question. Pricey until you receive it, then it’s yours and you’ll be happy you have it.

It looks amazing, it does not feel so luxurious though(as it retail prize suggest), I got it on sale, otherwise I would not be so pleased with my purchase.

I gave this to a friend that really got into making pasta in the pandemic. He loves it.

The grating function isn’t what I expected.

I saw this in a restaurant and knew I wanted one. When it arrived it looked exactly as I’d seen and as pictured. Then I tried to use it. It was completely useless. I could run my knuckles over the grater with no impact. I was so disappointed and returned it, It’s nice art but a crap utensil.
