Updated: Good Customer Service
Update: I received a refund from the seller due to the item's condition, which was very generous - great customer service. I think I can comment on the quality of the grinder now and ignore the shipping issues (in the old review below).Updated Review:Build Quality: 4.5/5, plastic barrel knicks this down from 5/5. Feels sturdy in the hand.Aesthetics: 4.5/5, again a slight downgrade due to the plastic. Otherwise it looks and feels nice.Action: 5/5, Grinds a LOT of pepper per turn. Feels smooth. The grind sizes are very good - the finest size is very fine. It is easy to change grind size.A quality product. My only complaint was how it was shipped, hopefully they change that in the future.The pepper grinder was shipped in an envelope with no packaging, so it arrived damaged.Since it was just in the envelope with no protection, it fell apart in transit. The central axel that turns the grinder is bent out of alignment due to shipping damage - it still works, I think, but it is not in new condition. Also, it was full of pepper when it was shipped, so the pepper fell out in transit and it and the various parts of the grinder scratched the stainless steel. All the pepper was just loose in the shipping envelope, but I wasn't necessarily planning on using it anyway - I'm more concerned about the damage to the item.It seems like a decent grinder, but I paid $50 for it and it arrived in essentially used, slightly damaged condition.

My Kitchen Just Got a Serious Upgrade...and My Food Tastes Fancy Now!
For years, my salt and pepper situation was... basic. I had the standard shakers that either dumped half their contents onto my plate or required me to perform some kind of percussive dance to get a single grain out. It was a culinary gamble every time. Then, I decided my spice game needed an intervention, and I ordered the Cole & Mason Derwent Grinder Set.Let me tell you, these aren't just salt and pepper grinders; they're kitchen jewelry. The copper finish? Chef's kiss. They sit on my counter looking all sleek and sophisticated, making my slightly-less-than-gourmet cooking feel instantly fancier. My toaster oven is clearly intimidated.But the real magic is in the grind. The pepper mill has, like, six settings! Six! I didn't even know there were that many ways to grind pepper. From a fine dust that disappears into sauces to a coarse, chunky explosion of peppery goodness, this thing delivers. The salt grinder is equally impressive with its multiple settings. I can finally achieve that perfect sprinkle without accidentally creating a salt lick on my steak.Using them is incredibly smooth. It's not a strenuous workout for your wrists; it's an elegant twist. They feel solid and well-made, like they could survive a minor apocalypse (or at least my clumsy handling). Refilling is easy too, though I did initially try to pour peppercorns into the grinding mechanism, which resulted in a small, spicy avalanche. Learn from my mistakes, people.Since getting these, I've noticed a difference in my cooking. Freshly ground spices just hit different. It's like my food suddenly woke up and realized it could taste amazing. My scrambled eggs are now events. My salads are experiences. I'm pretty sure my neighbors are wondering why my kitchen smells so much more... aromatic.If you're still using prehistoric salt and pepper shakers, do yourself a favor and upgrade. These aren't just functional; they're beautiful and they genuinely make cooking and eating more enjoyable. They've brought a little bit of fancy into my everyday life, and for that, they deserve all five stars.Five out of five perfectly seasoned bites!

This is the BEST pepper grinder!
I bought one of these maybe 15 years ago in a store, and I still use it. I needed another pepper grinder and have gotten 2 different ones that are hard to use, grind to little for the work, and I end up not liking or using. It then occurred to me - maybe this one is still available - and it is! Its just like my old one. Produces good amount of ground pepper, and the adjustable grind feature is very nice. Looks very nice too (I have stainless steel). Based on the one I've had for >15 years, I anticipate the durability will be equivalent also. Totally worth it.

It's a quality product
Its easy to load in pepper corns and grind it to the exact size you dial it in at. No wonder it won the america's test kitchen award.

What a beauty
It’s gorgeous, fits my hand beautifully, feels solid without feeling heavy. It comes not quite half-filled with black peppercorns.Didn’t see much difference in grinds 1and 2 but big difference in 3 (cracked pepper type) and 2 (fine). That’s as far as I’ve checked.Noticed in at least one review difficulty in changing grind levels. Mine came with it easily movable for the first change, but any further change required turning the top cap clockwise a bit before I could shift the dial to change the grind. Not a problem. Takes a few turns before pepper comes out, but I suspect that’s due to the level of peppercorns in there. Again, not a problem just getting to know it.Appreciated the quick delivery. It came with another item I ordered, I was surprised it wasn’t boxed or wrapped in any way in the package. There was enough packing material though so it wasn’t moving about, so no damage to it.

Best grinder I have had so far
Sturdy and fits well with our stainless theme. Grind is consistent and I like the different settings. Already have had to refill it twice because we use it so much.

Pricey but worth the imvestment
Love these - the operation is smooth and efficient; the look is clean and modern. I considered the tall wooden style, but it was unclear if the grinding mechanism is the same. We have one of the pepper grinders already and wanted a nice set for the dining table. Since the mechanism is what we love the most about the grinder, I went with the same acrylic modern style. The set came beautifully packaged and would make an outstanding gift for someone special.
