Customer Reviews

A selection of useful comments from customer reviews are:

Highly attractive electric mills
Very well built and are very adjustable
Can be adjusted to give a fine or course grind
It is easy to fill
The connections to the lamp in the salt mill have become corroded
I highly recommend spending the little bit more to get top quality
I also like the little cup stand they sit in to keep your table or counter free from ground salt & pepper
They are sturdy, they grind well, and are straight forward to fill and change the batteries
I couldn't figure out how to reassemble them after putting the batteries in
