We've purchased many different zesters over the years for our bar/restaurant.  Typically we buy the cheap ones from our grocery vendor and they'll last a few months before breaking or failing to work efficiently.  I never expected our bartender to thank me for purchasing a specific zester but she really thinks a lot of this tool.  It's the handle she likes more than those we've purchased in the past.  Oxo makes good quality products and I'm glad this is no different.
