Best I’ve ever owned
This pepper mill is the best I’ve ever used. It is so easy on your hands. It grinds beautifully. And you get a good amount with each grind.

Best pepper grinder in the world!
When you have to grind a lot of pepper for a recipe this thing is the most amazing ever. You can effortlessly get a tablespoon of pepper. I will be giving these as gifts to my sister and my best friend for their coming birthdays.

So far so good
I’ve been using this product everyday for a couple months now without issue.The product works exactly as described for grinding whole black peppercorns.Operation is very easy and produces a good amount of ground black pepper with just a few cycles of the lever.Grinding other spices?I’ve only ground whole black peppercorn, can’t say how it performs with other whole spices.Usefulness of separate container?I have yet to use it, honestly forgot I had it.Over the years I’ve wasted a lot of time and money on pepper grinders that were ultimately disappointing. Took a chance on this different style grinder and so far it’s proving to be a winner.

I use mine for pepper, it’s fast and it’s easy to use, even if your hands are wet. I’m recovering from a broken wrist and I still find it difficult and painful to do that twisting motion of most grinders. The ratchet motion is much easier. I think it would be good for people with arthritis too but even if you don’t have those issues, it’s just easier, period, especially with wet hands. I also like the collection cup at the bottom. It’s great for measuring amounts for cooking and it keeps the residual pepper grounds from dropping onto the cupboard shelf when you store it.

Brilliant grinder. The only quibble is the loading hatch can be dislodged from its pivot if gripped too hard. Simple to put back though! Definitely a full 5-star product all round.

it’s a bit bigger than I had hoped for but it works extremely well. I have a cupboard full of pepper grinders accumulated over 15 yrs. None gave me the grind I wanted. I will be throwing most of them out now because ‘This is the Way’ this one is perfect for my needs, the size of the grind is adjustable from powder to very coarse. I will be buying another one to use with salt.

Best Pepper Grinder I’ve Seen (or Used)!
There are many things I love about this (and I’ve searched and owned quite a few). The adjustable ceramic grinding stone is the best! The ratchet handle is so easy to use, especially if you have arthritic hands. It is easy to fill. But the best feature is the removable spice jar at the bottom (with measurements no less) – hands down, this is the top reason for me! Not only does it measure and contain pepper (or whatever spice you are grinding), but it keeps your table or tray from having all those loose grains of pepper that you constantly have to wipe up or clean from your table. And if you have a pepper grinder that has a lid on top of the grinder that prevents this problem, you still have to remove the lid before using. Not the case with this one! I can grind into the attached spice jar or not use it, but it keeps my table clean and free of pepper grains. Thire is an almost identical Rikon Essential Adjustable Ratchet Grinder that comes without the attached spice jar (known simply as Rikon Adjustable Ratchet Grinder – missing the word “Essential”) that has a ball at the top of the ratchet – don’t mistakenly get this one if you want the attached spice jar because it doesn’t come with one and the extra spice jars that can be ordered separately won’t fit this model.

Easy on the hands
The ratchet handle makes this pepper grinder easy for an old lady with arthritis to use and it does a great job of grinding. the small jar that fastens to the bottom can be filled with freshly ground pepper when you want to measure out a portion for a recipe.
