Zester with Shield Dark Gray - Figmint™: Stainless Steel Citrus Grater, Reusable Cover, Dishwasher-Safe

We love this! It works great and isnt too bulky. It’s dishwasher safe and hasnt rusted. It is long so its good for a large bowl/pot but not great for single serve or individual portioned bowls as it makes a mess. If they had a shorter one, i would love to get that.

The protective shield is difficult to slide back on once you’ve run both pieces through the dishwasher. I’ve scraped my fingers trying to squeeze the shield back on. Other than that, it does what it’s supposed to do.

I was so excited to try this zester & was happy with the results! It works great - so far I’ve used it on lemon and cheese. I love how it has a snap on protective cover so the sharp blades aren’t exposed! The handle is soft silicone with is nice when you’re zesting!

Works great for citrus

I’ve been wanting a zester, so I was happy when I came across this one. The cover is a nice extra touch. It does the job and zested my citrus fruit nicely. It was also pretty easy to clean, which is a bonus for sure!

The Figmint Zester has quickly become one of my favorite kitchen tools! The design is sleek and modern in dark gray, and it feels incredibly sturdy in hand. The sharp blades make zesting citrus fruits effortless, producing fine, even zest every time without any mess. The protective shield is a great feature, ensuring safety when it's stored in the drawer. Cleaning is also a breeze, either by hand or in the dishwasher. This zester is a must-have for anyone who loves cooking or baking!

I wanted to love this but I don’t. The teeth just don’t dig in. I was trying to zest an orange and it just slid over the surface. It worked if I pressed really hard, but then I got more pith than I wanted and was afraid I’d cut myself if my hand slipped. My old rasp style grater works better even if it isn’t meant to be a zester. I wouldn’t buy this again.

Very sharp zester so works well! Comes with a plastic guard so is safe and easy to store. Wish it was a little wider for faster zesting. Comfortable handle so easy to use. Would recommend for a simple tool.

I bought this when it first was released so it’s possible that they have updated the design or made little tweaks by now but this zester did not hold up to relatively infrequent use. The little tines? grooves? of the zester started to push inwards after a couple of uses and now is definitely not as sharp or as effective as it was when we first bought it so I feel like I need to press citrus or cheese pretty firmly against the zester for it to do anything. My brand name zester that does cost more than 3x has held up with 0 issues for almost 10 years and when I compare the price of this item to that, you’re much better off getting the brand name to save money in the long run. 3 stars for the affordability, the ok quality, and sleek space spacing design

Love that this comes with a plastic shield for storage. Works great for zesting, have only used it a couple times so far but great purchase.

Bought in store and couldn't tell it came with a cap, which is nice. But also a super effective zester. Not very wide but still zested pretty quickly. Love the Figment line for providing cheap but quality cooking supplies

I bought this yesterday & used it to get lime zest for a pie - worked great!! What I was more pleased about, however is that the zester was attached to its packaging with STRING instead of plastic!!! Thank you Figmint and Target for (it seems) trying alternative ways of attaching products.

Works well! Affordable too

This zester does the job as intended. It's easy to use, and it's quite sharp, so it's not a hassle to zest citrus fruits. I only really use it for citrus fruits, so I can't speak to how well it works with other food items. It's easy to clean, too, in my case. It does the job, and I quite like having it on hand.

Needed a new zester and this worked out great. For a great price, couldn’t say no and this is perfect for my needs.

Easy to clean and found multiple uses. I also used this to garnish soups and dishes with fresh parmesan.

Effective. I feel like very little pressure is needed to get a good zest. The shield is a nice touch for protection when storing in a drawer. Figmint is becoming my new favorite brand—it feels like I am buying a product line that is conscious of what goes into it regarding potential health risks and the environment with the cardboard and string packaging.

Zester with shield dark grater is so easy to use and zester with shield dark grater is so easy to clean and remove left over items we finished zesting. It is sharp enough to zest but the guard helps avoid all cuts

No zester is easy to use, but this one comes close

I recently discovered this brand I am in love with the simplicity and design
