Gravity Salt and Pepper Grinder with Adjustable Coarseness Automatic Pepper and Salt Mill Battery Powered with White LED Light,One Hand Operated,Brushed Stainless Steel by CHEW FUN

Its ingenious design works perfectly, hope it lasts
For years I’ve been seeking an electric pepper grinder. But the ones you see in restaurants (or used to, when there were restaurants) cost north of $100. I’m a pensioner on a budget and have always considered such a purchase to be a foolish indulgence. But the thing is, I hate manual pepper grinders. They are uncomfortable to use and inefficient. And I love freshly ground pepper.Then I came upon this thing. It was affordable and its design and functionality were appealing. As I read about the blue light I almost dismissed it as hokey. I’m glad I didn’t because after I bought this grinder, that blue light came in handy when seasoning my steak at a candle-lit dinner table. (Being a pensioner is not all bad.)It might be the most awkwardly named product on Amazon, but the purchase and setup experience went flawlessly. It arrived on time and was well packaged, reducing the likelihood of damage during shipping. When I removed it from its box the unit had a pleasing heft. It’s plastic, but it incorporates heavy, thick plastic that should stand up to kitchen handling. The design is modern and attractive. I was afraid it would look cheesy but in real life it’s classy.The product comes with a helpful one-page user guide. Be sure to have plenty of AAA batteries on hand. Assembly requires six of them, but their position and orientation are clear. After installing the batteries, the only other thing you need to do is fill the reservoir to no more than 80 percent of its capacity with fresh peppercorns. (The point of this product is fresh pepper, which is vastly superior to pre-ground pepper and has a wonderful bouquet while being ground. Don’t spoil the experience by using year-old peppercorns from the back of your spice rack.)Once it’s assembled, resist the temptation to try it on the spot. First, grab a small bowl and hold it under the unit. THEN turn it upside down and like magic the blue light comes on and the little motor whirs and out comes freshly ground pepper at just the right rate. Adjust the coarseness of the grind by twisting the white plastic knob at the center of the top of the unit, counter clockwise for more coarseness.This grinder has freed me from the tedium of endlessly rotating a mechanical unit that delivers a few stingy grains of pepper at a time. My only concern about this product is its longevity. Other owners have experienced premature failures and I intend to find the weak point (if in fact there is one) from the reviews and monitor that part of the grinder in the hope of catching and solving the problem before it happens.This is being written in mid-August 2020. In a few months I will revisit this review and provide feedback about daily usage. If the product fails before that time, I will report the failure immediately. All I can say at this point is that it works so well, I’m glad I took the plunge.

Items works just as described.
These are great ways to portion out the salt and pepper. The set also impresses several of my friends and family with design and functionality.

Fire hazard waiting to happen!
BUY AND USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!! I reserve my reviews for either the most amazing or most garbage products I come across, and this one hits on the latter side. I got mine the other night and not loaded it worked exactly as advertised. Tip it and the grinder kicked in, flip it back to level and it turns off. However as soon as I put some actual dry black peppercorn in for grinding it turned into a firebomb waiting to happen. It worked the first 20-30 seconds, but almost immediately the grinding gear started getting jammed up. I took a small tool brush to it to clear the obvious blockages and a can of air duster to try to remove the rest. Opened it to check blocks inside and didn’t see anything. Ok worked again for 20 seconds and this time started to “engage” “pause” “engage”.. So I put it down thinking I would come back to it later. I notice though that with it in the off position it was still every few seconds trying to engage the motor. So I quickly brush it and air spray it again and it wasn’t making any noise so I left it on my counter.Cut to 30 minutes later. I wanted to figure out why it was clogging up so I pick it up again and the entire unit is hot to the touch. Something wasn’t right. I open it up to check batteries and nearly burnt myself because of the heat the batteries put out. the plastic around the battery casing was already warping and I needed to use a knife tip to remove the batteries from the grinder, and then placed them in a plstic bucket in the middle of my yard to cool down which took almost 2 hours.After all of this I still wanted to salvage the unit so I started to try to deep clean it, unscrewing the cap over the grinder gear and this is when the “quality” of this unit showed itself and the entire assembly shot out on a spring (it should have been locked behind a nut that didn’t hold anything in place. The nut literally shot right off the bolt followed by the spring) and the parts went everywhere.So now I’m left with a piece of junk I couldn’t even return if I wanted to, and a blister on my finger from a battery that was hot enough to explode because this unit put so much draw down on it after getting stuck within a minute of total use. Had I left this on the counter for any longer the whole thing could have easily caught fire from the batteries. So use at your own risk.

Stopped working
Stopped working so I put new batteries in it. It still didn’t work and the batteries got really hot. There must’ve been a short inside. It lasted four years.

Excelente relación calidad precio ! Diseño muy lindo y fácil de usar ! Feliz con mi compra

I already have one of these for a salt mill and as my pepper grinder stopped grinding I decided to purchase a pepper grinder to match the salt mill, I’ve had the salt mill for several years and only required to replace the batteries so it wasn’t a difficult decision in purchasing the same again.
