This salt grinder worked just a few times and now will not grind anything -it came filled with salt and 3/4 of that salt is still in the unit so it is apparent it has hardly been used before it ceased to work. I am doubly unhappy because I ordered both the salt and pepper grinders to have a matching set. Now I'm stuck with the pepper mill as it can't even be returned and no salt grinder to match.

I've used an oak pepper mill with salt shaker for more years than I care to admit. As a chef, I prefer freshly ground pepper and tend to enjoy using a five peppercorn blend which is attractively displayed in acrylic. Since I bought the peppermill, I decided to purchase the salt mill as well.

This is a great product! Received a salt and pepper set as a wedding gift 4 years ago and we have no complaints....they've actually received many compliments! The grinding action is sturdy, the hand feel is proportionally balanced and easy to operate. Easy to cook with and looks great when dressing the table. The only note is that some residual grounds are left behind in a tiny pile whenever they are picked up so we store ours in a flat little dish on the counter top. This 'leave behind' seems to be common with all grinders and is really not a problem at all.
