It has become an amazement to me how hard it is to find a durable, well functioning pepper mill!! I’ve had 3 in four years!! I do use a lot of pepper, but come on!! This one is sturdy, and the adjustable grind holds where you place it. It’s easy to fill and I got the transparent color so I could see when I was running out. Like I said, I use it a lot. It’s easy on my carpel tunnel, and the little trough at the bottom makes it neat and easy to collect the pepper if you need to measure the amount. If this one breaks I’ll buy this again because I’ve been so happy with it.

These are the best pepper mills I’ve ever had.When they went on sale I ordered an extra one for me & 2 for daughters.They are compact, look elegant on a table, work precisely & you can use attached collection container or quickly remove it to grind direct over food.I use it with my cubeb pepper & got a second one for Szechuan pepper.

I've always preferred the large wooden pepper grinders and avoided plastic in my house. However, it is undeniable that this devise is easier to use. It is simple to fill, the twist knob turns smoothly, and the catch cup is handy to get a sense of how much ground pepper is coming through. It is not pretty but very practical. I have used to to grind pepper and couse salt when I needed fine salt but was out. It is easy to use and to hold.

Many years ago, I had a Chef'n Peppermill that was easy to adjust the coarseness and could crack enough pepper to use in dishes and/or a number of guests without spending time cranking on a typical "grinder" style mill.This mill is equal to or better than my beloved Chef'n mill.I bought one for salt and one for pepper. Many don't realize how much setting the coarseness of a spice adds to the flavor of different foods. This mill is easy to fill, change the coarseness and use. You can even change out the type of spice relatively easily, without waste. The removable container allows the user to grind as much spice and they need before they need it so you are not grinding over a hot dish and you may prepare a measured about before putting a recipe together.The only down side is that the grinder is more or less a "rounded rectangle" shape and may be a little large for people with smaller hands or hand weakness. The side mounted crank is quite easy to use and makes fast work of course sea salt and peppercorns. Perhaps the company will take ergonomic considerations in future manufacture. Perhaps a slimmer profile and rubber grips for the non-grinding hand (it seems to be ambidextrous though).Hopefully the grinding apparatus will hold up to the use put it through. (it says it is ceramic so it should be durable). The only other part is the lever used to turn the grinder but there are few other moving parts.So far, I am very happy with both of the mills I bought.

Easy to fill, easy to use, grinds at a fast rate, easy adjustment as to size of grind. Bottom clear container to catch pepper it you need to measure your fresh grind. Very consistent size of pepper grinds. We've using the Costco/Kirkland pepper with grinder for many years, this is a step up.

I like the ease of grinder pepper & regulating the outcome. The ratchet grinder is easier on my wrist.

I first saw the Peppermate being used by Jacques Pepin in all of his at-home videos. I thought "if it's good enough for him, it's certainly good enough for me!". I bought one for myself, then for Christmas bought one for each of my family members. The product is stellar -- it's the last pepper grinder you will ever buy. There's no mess and it's great for food prep (pre-grinding and knowing how much you've ground). They are great gifts too and I will be buying more.On top of that, the service is fantastic. My husband stupidly put the plastic tray in hot water to wash so it split and I needed a replacement, but because I live in Canada, the shipping cost would be 4x the cost of the replacement tray. At the last minute, I ended up travelling to the US on a short trip and reached out to Peppermate -- they rushed a shipment across the country to me and were in communication with me the whole time. Thank you to Seth for taking care of me and my tray!

This pepper mill functions extremely well. The knob is easy to turn, it has a container to contain the droppings or you can sprinkle them directly in your food. I love that the grind can be adjusted as I find some grinds do not give a fine grind. This is perfect. It is also very easy to fill and has a lifetime warranty . I would consider buying a second one to use as a salt mill too. Also very attractive and I would easily have this at the table . Very happy with this purchase.

Easy of re-loading, long years of service expected, quality item at a good price.A chef’s delight, to use and functionality. Brilliant.

Works perfectly, easy to handle .

I saw this device being used by Chef Jacques Pépin and as I'm a huge fan of the legendary chef and gentleman, I decided I had to have one too. It came promptly, is easy to fill, easy to use and easy to clean. It has adjustable grinding levels and a super handy well for making ground pepper to measure. I'm going to buy these units for my family and friends as presents.

It's really easy to churn out a lot of pepper with this, and it adjusts from pretty fine powder to convincing coarse. It won't give you cracked pepper but that's ok, a couple of whacks in a mortar and pestle will do that. My only gripe is that the coarseness control is hidden with no meter marks, a situation exacerbated by the unmarked knob only stopping at the coarse end but not at the fine end (just continues to turn, which is expected behavior according to the seller answering my question on this site). But I'm enjoying using it and really like the optional cup on the bottom; no more grinding onto a folder paper towel. [Added Aug 12: the coarseness knob stopped working after just a few days of using the grinder; I'm expecting a replacement from Amazon tomorrow and will update this a few days later]

So cute together

Brings a elegant and contemporary look to the kitchen.

This product is very well made and looks really elegant on my counter.The reason I took off a star is because they come without a cover on the bottom and I constantly have salt and pepper on my counter or cabinet. After I finish using it there's always leftovers that still fall and it makes a mess. There should of been a cover to close it so there's no spillage.

I have long appreciated the positive impact of fresh ground pepper and other spices. After you cook with high quality, fresh ground salt, pepper, etc. you'll never go back. For a long time, however, I would just buy the spices already inside their plastic grinder. That all changed when my mother in law gave me a pepper grinder as a birthday gift. It was one of those big wooden things about the size of a bowling pin. It also provided me with an epiphany about the benefits of having your own grinders and refilling them as needed.Despite the almost comical size of the wooden pepper grinder it grinds pepper like nobody's business. This taught me a valuable lesson about the quality of a dedicated spice grinder relative to the plastic grinder full of spice sold at the grocery store. Advantage 2--you can make sure that you're putting quality spices into your quality grinder. Advantage 3--you'll save a ton of money in the long run. Even factoring in your investment in the grinder. Although the exact amount varies depending on what spice and variety of spice you're putting in the grinder it's a significant amount.So you've got a very attractive grinder that can do a better job on more spices and save you money in the process. What's not to like? Highly recommended!

Overall fantastic grinder. Easy to refill and can be adjusted to different coarsness.

This is a simple pepper grinder. It is stylish, attractive, and a bit heavier than I had expected. It is actually quite well made and works very well, offering variable coarseness, (a great option that some budget grinders do not have.) However, overall, I did not find this grinder to be a great value when compared to other pepper grinders with similar functions and aesthetics available at lower prices.

I like that you can grind it as course as you'd like. Works perfectly.

These are super cute in pictures, but extremely cheap in person. The “marble top” is just a very thin marble design that’s printed on the grinder. The marble paint was already chipping off when I took the Grinder out the box (it may have been a returned item) so I know it’s not going to last long. The gold part also looks like it’s painted on. This would be a cute set for $20, but they’re out of their minds for $50. I returned it.
