Bought this from Amazon (not an Amazon seller), arrived in good time and condition and was fantastic value.Looks very attractive & is practical due to the inverted design, and as others have said, leaves no mess when stored in the cupboard but would not suggest leaving it out for long periods of time in case of dust collection.Having said that it is easy to clean & easy to refill by pulling out the rubber stopper, which fits snugly back in again.I have not experienced any problems so would highly recommend this set.Update 2017: Both mills are still in great working order. Both mechanisms are ceramic, the C&M website advises against submerging them in water to clean and to keep the mechanism dry or air dry before use (use a damp cloth to wipe only).This year I did have difficulty with the pepper mill (stopped grinding) so decided to check here in case there were any tips in the reviews but instead found information elsewhere which helped. The peppercorn mill stopped grinding but it appeared to be due to a build up of residues from grinding peppercorns. I took some advise to use rock salt (another suggestion was uncooked rice) and grind it through to clean the mechanism and this worked great. Back to a perfect set!I wonder if the 'quality' of peppercorn/ salt makes a difference to how long the mills last (after seeing so many reviews recently which say they are not well built - these had great 5* reviews back when I bought them!) such as size of peppercorns & rock salt, and how firm they are or how well they keep.

I have nothing but praise for these salt and pepper mills. I needed a new set for quite a while now, and did a LOT of research before finally settling on these. The first thing that struck my eye was obviously the design. As someone who appreciates fine design, I fell in love with these. I had never heard of Cole & Mason before, so I was a bit skeptical, but after checking their official website, I learned that these guys make just salt and pepper mills, with a few minor exceptions. So surely, they must know what they are doing. Also, the reviews on here were very helpful as well - thank you ladies and gentlemen.They are a pleasure to hold, easy to refill, and give an excellent grind for both the salt and pepper.No mess left behind, which is the problem I often had with conventional grinders. Here, everything is at the top. There may be some salt and pepper residue on the shakers after they've been used, but just run a dry cloth above the area and they're as good as new.For the price, it just does not get any better than this. I plan on getting another set, one for dry herbs and one for chili peppers.

I have forgotten quite how long our family has been using these grinders but it is a considerable number of years.I felt I had to let users of these grinders know of the great customer service I have received from Cole & Mason.Recently I have experienced a couple of problems with the grinders. The first was the salt grinder mechanism stopped grinding properly and the adjuster (the cone in the centre)had seized. The second problem was with the replacement grinder. After awhile the top half of the mill would not stay firmly attached with the bottom half and the two would part company with each other - usually this happened when used by a guest who was unfamiliar with this type of mill.However on contacting the makers these problems were quickly and efficiently dealt with.So, should you have any problems with your purchase I can heartily recommend contacting the manufacturers customer relations department.

I cannot believe there are so few versions of this simple idea on the market. After years of mess and waste caused by pepper landing either on a tray, tablecloth or work surface we now save money and time. In addition to being excellent pepper grinders they are so easy to fill by comparison with the more usual top fill models. A simple rubber bung in the wide bottom means refilling can be done quickly and without a funnel. We replaced the salt with mixed peppercorns. Sadly, here is the only downside we have encountered so far. The largest peppercorns are too big to be ground, but we haven't found any mill that will deal with these. However, I thought to give the product five stars when it won't deal with these would be misleading.I feel this is a minor problem considering the other advantages.

Really impressed with these which I bought after the previous Cole & Mason Mills fell apart after years of service.They are well-made and the inverted design looks good as well as being a practical solution to having salt and pepper all over your kitchen table or top.Easy to re-fill as the bottom is a pull-out rubber bung.Best of all the 'grade' of the grounds is easily adjustable by turning the mill spindle at the top. This means you can have very fine salt and pepper, eg for chips, or nice and course salt and pepper to season the skin side of Sea Bass fillets (a personal favourite!).Everyone who has seen and used these has gone off to order their own - that is a good recommendation.

Over the last few years we have tried many salt and pepper mills, both battery-operated and manual but they have all had major design faults. The battery ones never seem to be strong enough to grind peppercorns and finding a decent salt mill is always a challenge. Finding a pair that both worked effectively appeared to be impossible. I read through the Amazon reviews on many sets before deciding on these, and awaited them with trepidation - would they be yet another waste of money? I am pleased to say that they are excellent at their job as well as looking handsome and of course there's no mess, either. A very simple, thoughtful and functional design. Well done, Cole and Mason.

I ordered this because I dislike the mess made by normal salt and pepper mills - especially the bits that got left in the kitchen cupboard where they were kept when not in use. This salt and pepper mill don't make the same mess as the grinder is at the top (you turn them upside down to use). The first time you come to use them it seems a bit unnatural to upturn them before using, but you soon get used to it. They come with salt and pepper already inside but when it's gone, refilling couldn't be easier - just pull out the rubber bung from the bottom of the mill, top it up, then push the bung back in. They look nice on the table too, I couldn't ask for more!

I can't get too excited about a salt / pepper mill - but these do one key thing - not drop salt and pepper grinds everywhere! I'd been looking for something spillage free for a while and these fit the bill perfectly. Note that the top of the salt / pepper grinder gets coated in fine grinds inside of the 'funnel' once you start to use it (not sure if this is static or dampness that causes this - maybe a bit of both), but personally I don't think this makes the grinder look dirty or messy - just used - something I'd happily put out on the table for guests. The grinder mechanism appears to be good quality too - hopefully they will last a long time.

Very pleased with these. They grind well and the adjustment is simple but effective. Guests tend to put them back on the table upside down, which makes a mess, but if you keep them the right way up then your days of salt rings in the cupboard and on the table are over. Hoping they last as we've had a succession of cheaper ones fall apart. I think the salt attacks the metal spindle usually, but a benefit of these being the other way up to most grinders means that there is no spindle and the salt does not sit on the mechanism when stored. Too early to say if they will last a lifetime, but 6 months in with no problems.

I bought this set about 2 years ago. One broke about 6 months after, and I replacet it. While its a very good salt and pepper mill, the mechanism breaks after a while. I kept them and forgot to return them back, as they promise a life time garentee . It's over two years I called customer service Cole and Mason. The lady was lovely and asked me to email them with the problem and take photos of them. I didn't even need to send the old ones back. Two weeks latter they sent me two sets !!! I have never had such good service and less hassle regarding a return.I would definitely buy Cole and Mason again.

I absolutely love these. BUT.... I've had two sets so far and they've both broken on me. The design of them is lovely - I love the fact that they are inverted. Filling is great, grinding is great. I'm even tempted to buy another set of these because I like the design so much. BUT.... in both sets after some use, the twisting portion of these has snapped off and there's no way to repair it - it just seems that they have a limited lifespan. If the company could fix that problem and make them more durable, then they'd be my absolute top recommendation.

Have tried the odd s/p grinder for years now. This I saw on Which? and although the main draw appears to be the fact that the delivery is from the top and not the bottom as with most grinders (thereby eliminating leakage of salt/pepper when the mill is not in use) I find the main plus for me was the exceptionally consistent grinding action.I really do love it.And since I am enjoying cooking more and more these last few years it is well timed.Now if only I can find a place in the kitchen to put them. Yes it really is that bad :-(

We had the old version of these for >5 years until my son dropped the salt pot on a hard kitchen floor and the mechanism broke. I immediately bought these. They look great and work well. The key advantage is that there is no mess. These are WAY better than any other grinders and so far as I can see they are the only inverted grinders on the market. I have given these out as presents and the recipients have loved them. They also do a red one for ground chillies. We have that too.

Just taken delivery and they are bigger than expected but that is ok and they look great on the table. The description said brushed chrome but they are polished chrome which I prefer anyway. Thought I would try the inverted type as I am fed up off salt and pepper bits on the table from conventional designs.The mechanism has a lifetime guarantee and from other reviews it seems as though Cole and Mason honour it without question, so what is there to lose? Time will tell

Having started to do a lot more cooking at home we needed to find a reasonably priced salt grinder; after searching through the reviews we narrowed down the search first to the brand and then opted for the set based on price and the fact that both the salt and pepper mill were being sold as a set. They arrived ahead of time and since receipt have occupied a place of prominence by the cooker. In a nutshell, well worth the investment and does what it says on the tin.
