I love pepper as does my husband and years ago we bought a very pretty wooden pepper mill which we have used without problem - accepting that there is always a residue of ground pepper left over. A little messy, but an expected result outweighed by enjoying freshly ground pepper whenever required without too much fuss. I confess over the years it has really begun to niggle - this residue in the cupboard, on the table, on the counter - despite the nifty little plastic lid from something or other which was just a little bigger than the grider base. I saw the upside down mills for salt and pepper and they looked like a gimmicky novelty (lots of those in kitchen depts as you know!).

If, like me, you've been suffering for your art with an old wooden mill - there is and answer and here it is.....There are a number of things I like about these which make them pretty much spot on for me...... in no particular order; They are good to grip... you hold onto the whole body of the thing and twist the grooved and grippy rubber end which provides a positive action; The shaft between the rubber handle and the actual grinder feels very solid - how it should be; the mechanism seems well engineered and crushes without any judder; the resistance between the handle and the body is none existent so all force used turning the unit is translated to the milling action; there is no interruption

This review is for both the salt and pepper grinder as I purchased both together at thecsame time.Over the years Ive owned many different types and sizes of salt & pepper mills / grinders including rhe original Peugeot wooden french classic design. None of them were that great. In fact fir a few years I resorted to buying the disposable types from the suoer market until they changed tgecdesign so tgey coukd nit be refilled anymore. Thus is when I discovered these OXO Good Grips grinders.They are easy to fill and the adjuster makes a firm feel to its 'click' when selecting your preferred grind size. You can easily see the different sizes of ground pepper / salt coming out of it when selecting through the size settings.

Having previously used the 'traditional' wooden grinders (nice to look at, in a nostalgic, 70's trattoria sort of way, but the bottom rusts eventually and the grinding oomph diminishes, too - plus filling is so darned fiddly!), then moved on to the battery operated ones (huge battery casing, 4 x AA's required, etc, but miniscule pepper container and the ones I bought fell to pieces after about 9 months or so) - decided to buy this as I have the OXO Good Grips shears (excellent!) and the vegetable parer (haven't used yet, but looks very good quality) - not disappointed at all. (Mildly annoying, but after ordering this 'top flight' one, found the 'lesser mortal' in Morrisons for £8,

This review is for both the Good Grips Salt Grinder and Pepper Grinder as I bought them as a pair. Well you would, wouldn't you. I've had a lot of these over the years, big ones, small ones, manual ones, electrical ones and they've all given trouble in one form or another. I especially hate it when you come to get them out the cupboard the next time you want to use them and there's a little pile of salt and pepper left sat on the shelf. Doesn't it just annoy you. Then we went to some friends for dinner one night and it changed my life, salt and pepper wise. They felt good in the hand as soon as you picked them up, they worked in a really positive feeling way,

Another gem from OXO. This was best price on internet and even came full of salt. It's the perfect size for the table, not too big or small, and feels robust and comfortable in the hand. My cupboard shelf is sprinkled with black pepper and salt from previous grinders, what an obvious improvement here to have the salt exiting the top and not the bottom! My previous salt grinder allowed big grains of salt through, not ideal, but with this one you can easily change the size of the grains, it's obvious what to do, and the first time I used it was with boiled eggs, so I needed it fine, and I used the finest setting, perfect. Unfortunately, before I purchased this, I swapped my salt from previous grinder into my pepper grinder,

I have tried many pepper grinders over the years and they have all been pretty pathetic. I have always seemed to have needed to grind away for ages to get any significant amount of pepper to emerge. This grinder is totally different. The construction is leaps and bounds above any others I have used. It is weighty and well made with quality materials.It has two unusual but welcome features. Firstly, it stands with the grinder facing upwards so that ground pepper is not always left behind wherever you stand it. Secondly, you have the ability to change the coarseness of the grinding by sliding a control. It seems to range from the normal coarseness you would expect, up to extremely coarse.

I bought this salt grinder after trying it at the house of a friend.I previously had a salt grinder from a company with a French name, one of the more traditional salt grinders a bit like the shape of a bowling pin. it ceased to function despite being well looked after and cleaned each time I topped up the salt. it was a salt grinder, not a pepper grinder. The pepper grinders from the same brand are still working.this OXO grinder is very chunky and feels expensive. Obviously it isn't cheap, but in this case you get what you pay for.The upside down design means that I no longer have a trail of salt next to my cooker where I keep the salt and pepper grinders.

We've been through so many salt and pepper mills that I'd all but given up finding one that would last, particularly at an affordable price. In true OXO form, this salt grinder does exactly what it claims to do, and it does it admirably. No batteries to go flat and more importantly, a consistent grind, time after time,The coarseness of the grind is controlled by a very positive lever-type action and can be adjusted from quite fine (though not as fine as the table salt you'd buy in a packet) to coarse enough to leave a distinct crunch to your eating experience,Being an "upside-down" grinder also means that it doesn't leave a mess behind every time you pick it up (when standing on the table/in the cupboard,

I don't know how many of those cheaper or more disposable salt and pepper grinders I've purchased over the years, but I always find them very uncomfortable to grind larger volumes (i.e., tablespoon or more). I purchased both the OXO salt and pepper grinders, not sure what the difference is between the two as they do look quite identical. The salt one has a white ring at the top, whereas the pepper one has a black ring. See photo. I haven't taken these apart to look at the mechanisms, but when I researched the difference between salt and pepper grinders it noted that salt corrodes certain metals, so the insides of salt and pepper grinders are generally made of different metals which also have different hardnesses to deal with the different hardness of the contents.

One of those products that doesn't look that different from the usual run-of-the-mill (forgive the pun), but does differ in important details. First of all, you park it grind-side up, so it doesn't leave pepper all over your pantry shelf. Secondly, the action is accurate and easy on the wrist. Covering a side of salmon or turkey with pepper doesn't wreck your hand. Thirdly, the five grind options adjust easily (although it always takes a couple of turns to get the previous grind out of the mill) and accurately.It's easy to fill and at this stage - having used it for a month or so - seems well-made. I did wonder if paying this much for a pepper grinder made sense but having just thrown away a nice-looking,

I bought this and its brother salt grinder to replace some old and tired ones that were past their best. I'm so glad I chose these. Because the grinder's delivery end is at the top pepper and salt dust doesn't get all over the cupboard in which they live or on the table when in use. Both have a knurled graduated ring with which it is easy to change the fineness/coarseness of the ground condiment. They feel good in the hand and are very well made I own a number of OXO products all of which have proven to be an improvement on other types I've previously used.I recommend the Pepper (and Salt) grinders and suggest you always consider an OXO product,

Excellent, I doubted the numerous very good reviews - shame on me... Having used them for a few days now I can easily say that these are very good to use, clean no spills use. They were bought in mind of elderly people using them and the good rubber grip ensures easy action to use. Time will only tell how robust and reliable they are, but others have given great reviews regarding lifespan so I won't doubt their experiences. We also bought the matching Salt and Pepper shakers - which are also very good to use.The items arrived well packaged and well within the time frame specified, these were however just too big to fit through our letter box, so you may need to collect them from the post office,
