Perfect for table and cooking. Not a super-fine grind. November 19, 2009 Hermit58 (Carlsbad, NM United States) I believe that as a pepper grinder shopper, I am in the majority when I say that I prefer a rougher grind than what is usually found in your average pepper shaker. I also much prefer the fresh-cracked flavor. This grinder well satisfies both of these requirements. WARNING - If you're looking for a pepper grinder than can create a fine enough grind like what you see in your average pepper shaker - forget it. This won't be for you. However, the five settings on this model are just perfect for me. I use the finest setting for table use, and the largest setting for thing like roasts and turkeys. The in-betweens settings are great for everything from soups to sauces, up to things like chops and stews, and everything in-between. One great feature is the upside-down operation that keeps your table clean. Plus, re-filling it couldn't be easier, and it holds a lot of whole pepper. I did my research and homework before I bought this. I didn't just get lucky, or choose this one because it came fully loaded with presh peppercorns. This unit replaced a Sharper Image electric bottom-lit pepper grinder. It was nice, but wore out quickly. The plastic housing wore to the point where the entire unit was too loose to properly operate. It barely lasted 5 years. I'm hoping to get more life out of this one. The ceramic grinder on this model is an interesting feature. I'm wondering if that will make a difference in the long run. Anyway, for the price, I seriously doubt you could do much better than this unit. It looks great, and they have a matching salt grinder. Maybe I'll get it, and put some sea salt in there.
Best freakin' mill ever!! November 3, 2009 J. Pullows (New York, NY USA) Let me start by saying that I love pepper. I use it on EVERYTHING. That being said i had a real hard time finding a pepper mill that grinds quickly and efficiently. Well this thing does both those!
Nice compact size, stores upside down so it doesn't leave a little mound of pepper where ever u leave it. The selector allows you to go from fine to course and everywhere in between. And the best part is that it yields a lot of pepper i don't have to twist it 40 times to get the amount I like.
Just buy it!!
Not so hot October 26, 2009 kajo50 (jax, fl) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I usually like OXO Good Grips products but I don't like this one much. Even on the finest setting the pepper comes out coarse grind. In fact I seen little if any difference between the coarsest setting and the finest. Also watch out for the bottom. Turn it the wrong way and your pepper corns will be all over the place.
Very Nice Grinder!!! October 26, 2009 Avid Camper (USA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
We very much like this Oxo grinder. First, we like the fact that the grinder part faces up, when placed on the table. No more messy spills or container underneath needed. Second, this is easy to use, fill and adjust. Third, these have color-coded ceramic grinding plates and the overall design seems sturdy and long-lasting. It grinds well. What we don't like is that the fill stopper fits a bit on the loose side and comes loose a little too easily, when you don't want it too. And then there is the color, if you like the black/stainless look, this is fine, but in our ivory/white kitchen, with our ivory/lightly pastel floral dishes, it doesn't look the best. But, if going for function, this is a great grinder. We wish they were a little lower priced, but would purchase again.
second one's a charm October 17, 2009 T. Wilson (Arlington, Wa United States) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
We purchased our pepper grinder from Amazon in mid August of 2009. We like that the pepper can be ground coarse or fine and that it doesn't leave bits of pepper on the counter because the business end is placed up when sitting on the counter. We encountered one big problem right away. The cap on the end where you refill the pepper was very loose with no way to tighten it. On several occasions after grinding pepper over our plates and upon up-righting it a flood of peppercorns would either spill out over the table or on our plate and onto the floor, much to the amusement of our cat. We decided to contact the manufacturer who requested we mail it to them so they could examine the unit and send a replacement. The second grinder arrived with a nice tight fitting cap and no more spills. Too bad we had to pay the postage to have it mailed to them but at least we got a properly working peppermill out of the deal. And we do like it a lot. My husband is a pepperaholic so we get lots of use out of it and it looks really nice on the counter next to our stainless steel cook-top. Also, it isn't very intuitive and the few times we've had company and brought it to the table we have had to explain how it works. I think we'll be getting another grinder to use at the table.
