Form AND Function
As a pepper-holic who wants food coated in a not-so-thin layer of black pepper, this handy tool is a fuss free way of getting your peppery fix.+ The radial motion helps for a smoother, quicker pepper-up to your pepper-lacking food.+ not an eyesore!+ small and compact!- handle sticks out a bit, and because itâs on the short side, might make it hard to fit things around it- no adjustment so itâs not an even grindSome small parts (washers) when taking it apart for adding peppercorns so make sure youâre not refilling it over the sink or youâll have problems ahead of you.Would 10/10 recommend for my pepper purposes.

Easy to use, solid construction.
Much pleased to use this pepper grinder. It does however have minor lapses in grinding (rare) but so do most that I have used. A good buy for one looking for good performance, ease of use and good aesthetics.

Really great grinder. I love the crank handle. Easy to refill. Lovely simple design. It just broke to soon. Plastic internal parts maybe.

Even Better than I expected
Weâve been searching for the right pepper grinder for about a year now. The sleek and small stature of this grinder first drew me in. Then after reading some of the reviews of how easy and smooth it was, I felt like this was the one.The size, color, smooth and ease of use along with the easy adjustable grind has got my husband excited to use it daily too.Iâm actually really surprised by the volume that is dispensed on each turn. Itâs equivalent to a grinder two or three times itâs sizeSo happy, all around, with my purchase!!!!

The top doesnât stay on.
I love how it grinds. I love the look and form. Itâs a great grinder. But if you move it much, or take from the kitchen to the table, be warned. The top just sits on the top and will fall off if it tips (leaving your fancy peppercorns all over). Do NOT travel with it if youâre planning to cook away from home. The top WILL fall off and you will have peppercorns in the bag with your sous vide machine and knives.

The B-E-S-T Salt Mill ever!
We do value a good salt grinder in our Kitchen – and the AdHoc Smoos Salt/Pepper Geared Mill – Manual Salt & Pepper Mill with a Gear Crank System is the very best we have ever used – hands down!!It is easy to load; it grinds flawlessly; is easy to use; and is an attractive addition to our kitchen! Highly highly recommend!

Can I give it 6 stars?
I donât think Iâve ever wanted to give an item 6 stars before. I like well-made tools and thatâs what this is, a masterly made tool that just feels good in your hand and works wonderfully. When I bought it I didnât even realize it has planetary gears – what that means is that it takes two turns of the handle to get one turn of the grinder – this makes it easier, smoother and more accurate measure of the pepper grinds. The fit and finish is amazing. It is worth the money. Donât hesitate to buy one. You will not regret it.

Beautiful mill that is easy to use for my wife who has arthritis. The fine setting for grind is awesome as so many millsâ fine isnât that fine. It also holds a good amount of peppercorns.

If you love pepper, and want sensational ease of use, this is the grinder for you.Filling the grinder is a bit tricky: I use two screw drivers to lever the top off as it is a VERY tight friction fit.The top easily pushes back on.Loads of capacity for a couple weeks use.
