OXO Good Grips Mess-Free Pepper Grinder

My wife struggles with kitchen tools because of her poor gripping skills. This Salt Shaker is perfect for her. We enjoy having freshly ground salt on our food and this does not require batteries. Easy to use, looks great on our counter or table and easy to keep clean. It has a easy to adjust grinding level from course to fine.

I had to replace a previous purchase of OXO grinders as we have had for many years. The bottom rubber piece to turn for grinding is a little loose. I was pleased to find it on Amazon at an excellent price. Did not hesitate to purchase as they are the best salt and pepper grinders and look wonderful on my kitchen table. Guests always comment when seen and during use on how nice/well they look and operate. There are 5 different grinding selections and very easy to turn rubber knob at the bottom. Easy to fill at the bottom. Clean with damp cloth and wipe dry. These grinders should complement any decor.

The BEST pepper mill on the market. I've tried a dozen different brands and this one beats them all. OXO is brilliant in how they designed this. The grinder is at the top so you don't have to wipe pepper from underneath it. The grind is excellent! it's the first mill that actually can do a fine grind to perfection. It's attractive and a very good buy. I highly recommend! And it comes full of peppercorns!

For anyone on the hunt for a salt grinder that truly delivers, look no further than the OXO Good Grips Salt Grinder. I've been using it with Himalayan salt, and the results are nothing short of perfection. What I love about this grinder: Effortless to Load: Getting the salt in is a breeze – no mess, no fuss. Comfortable Grip: True to the "Good Grips" name, it feels secure and comfortable in hand. Easy to Use: It requires surprisingly little force to operate, making it a joy to use even for those with weaker hands. Adjustable Grind Size: The adjustable feature, letting you switch from a fine powder to a coarse crunch, is fantastic and works flawlessly. Honestly, this grinder proves that you absolutely do not need to spend a fortune on an overpriced salt mill to get premium results. The OXO Good Grips Salt Grinder is a fantastic value and performs exceptionally well. I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable, easy-to-use, and effective salt grinder. Five stars!

The OXO Good Grips is the fourth pepper grinder I've purchased in the past several years. Perhaps my expectations are too high but my needs are: grind peppercorns easily; grind in a range of sizes from fine to "nearly cracked pepper"; adjust easily; hold a large amount of peppercorns; be durable (this means it needs to last more than just a few months of daily use); and it would be nice if it looked good on the table as well as on the counter and, personal preference, operate with a crank. Well, so far I have not found the "perfect grinder" but this one is close. It grinds easily and grinds through a full range of sizes -- for a change, "coarse" is actually too coarse to go through a pepper shaker. The adjustable ring makes adjustment easy but you do sometimes need to try a size to make sure it is what you had in mind. It holds a modest amount of peppercorns. Disclaimer: we use a lot of pepper as seasoning and use almost exclusively freshly ground pepper -- for us, this grinder holds three to four weeks supply. OK, but more would be better. It is easily filled: remove the screw cap--something that was redesigned from the earliest models of this grinder. Durability seems to be satisfactory -- we use it regularly (read "daily" here) for the last five months and there have been no problems. As far as aesthetics -- its OK, not as striking as the Atlas copper or brass mills, but not displeasing. It does not have a crank. It operates by a twist of the black plastic top (which appears as the bottom in most pictures). Ground pepper comes out of the silver end. Not a deal breaker, just not my "ideal grinder". All in all, I like it. I use it daily. It works well. I bought several more for gifts to other cooks I know. However I am still looking for the perfect grinder.

I've had the grinder for a few months now and I still get so happy every time I use it. I miss it when I'm dining out, and almost packed it for traveling over the holidays. Yeah, I sort of love pepper, what can I say! Pros: * Feels great in the hand, very sturdy and durable * Easy to fill, easier to use -- I could see this being a kind nonelectric grinder for people with arthritis due to the mill's smooth grinding, easy-to-grip turning base, and (relatively large) quantity of pepper grinded per turn. * No, seriously, this thing spits out pepper like you wouldn't believe. Using the cheapo plastic supermarket grinders is an ordeal (especially with wet or damp hands!) and this is such a delight. Covers a roast or steak in just a few twists. * Easy to adjust grind size; I would possibly agree that 3 variations would be sufficient since there isn't too much of a notable difference in the 2 and 4 compared to their neighbors, but I won't complain about more options either! * I appreciate that it has a partially clear body so you know at a glance when to refill. * Kitchen workhorse that also looks good enough to use for table service. Cons: * I've seen some reviews complain that the fine grinding isn't fine enough for their tastes. I could see that as a fair point, but I wonder how many of those people are familiar with freshly-ground vs. factory pre-ground? It's plenty fine enough for me. * I was happy enough with the grinder that I purchased the matching salt grinder within a couple of weeks. In retrospect, I could've saved some cash by buying the set (20% less expensive at the time of writing) vs. each piece separately. I don't know if you can call this a con though, just a lack of faith/foresight on my part. If you're thinking you might eventually want both, then do it all at once -- you won't regret it.

This is an expensive grinder, but they last for years so I think they’re worth it
