This review is from: Vic Firth Mario Batali 7-Inch Salt Mill, Turquoise (Kitchen)

So, I didn't know that I was such a tough customer about something like a salt grinder, but I am. This one is great. The construction is solid, including a metal nut at the top, within the top to prevent wood depression. The internals are metal and vinyl (standard for salt grinders to prevent pitting). The settings for courseness are all controlled on the top screw. If you like your salt really large, then the top will have just a bit of play, but nothing worth mentioning.

I rate it an A for the construction, the look, and the salt grind.
