The grinding of the salt and pepper are absolutely FLAWLESS. One thing you need to know: when switching to different grinding modes, I HIGHLY advise that you turn the grinder upside down and turn the knob in a counterclockwise direction. This enables the grinder to clear out any particulate matter whereby you can EASILY switch from fine to coarse and anything in between without excessive force. I have had MANY salt and pepper mills over the years, both manual and electric which all have failed over time. Hands-down, this is the absolute BEST on the market. Pricey??? Ya gets what ya pay fow! Highly recommended!!!
This was a warranty replacement for another that had been purchased several years ago. The old one just didn't work efficiently and was about to be scraped when I ran across the warranty. I filled it out, returned the old one and received this one. What a wonderful difference! I love the fully adjustable grind and how quickly it grinds the needed amount of pepper. Even more important, they stood behind the warranty.
