An elegant work horse.
I’ve read some of these reviews and thought I’d try and clarify something: Many have complained about the “start/stop” grinding action as they attempt to use this mill. This is because most of the whole peppercorns sold in the US are Tellicherry Peppercorns which are a larger variety and as a result, the have a great deal of difficulty falling through the hopper. The correct peppercorns to use and for which this mill was engineered would be Sarawak Peppercorns (also available on Amazon). Sarawak is a peppercorn which comes from Malaysia and is a bit more nuanced than its somewhat boisterous cousin. This is a very well built, well designed tool. It even forgives your buttery or wet hands with ease. The adjustment dial provides an even flow according to your grind requirements. I would absolutely advise any future purchaser to consider using Sarawak with this grinder. You’ll enjoy the ease, control and consistency this mill provides.

Great grinder and it comes with an American WARRANTY
I’ve been limping along with two pepper grinders gifted to us many years ago. The tall dark one we’ve used for black pepper and the shorter “beigier” colored one for white pepper. The grind of the tall one can only be adjusted by tightening or loosening the nut on top which also secures the grinder’s top. The more you grind, the tighter the nut gets and the finer the grind. The shorter grinder has a chrome collar just below the top with F, M and C settings which work okay, but I end up inadvertently turning the collar as I grind, thus changing the fineness of the grind. And the varnish on the outside of the shorter grinder has aged so that it is now sticky to the touch. Hmph.So, I decided to splurge and get one each of the chocolate brown and natural wood colored Peugeot grinders for black and white pepper respectively. Good choice. Love them. They grind both types of pepper very easily, thank you, the mechanism works flawlessly and they look very handsome on the counter by the stove top.Adjusting grind fineness or coarseness is accomplished by turning a wooden collar at the base of each grinder to the desired setting designated by tiny vertical markings from I to IIII. You have to experiment to figure out if I is coarse or fine, but it’s figure-out-able and I won’t spoil if for you. I suspect too that the markings will wear away over time thus only increasing the Gallic fun. I had a friend who owned a Peugeot 304 back in the 1970s and the car had similar little idiosyncrasies. Like the ashtray with 14 moving parts.Anyhow, I love the grinders, I use them daily, they feel good to the touch AND the vendor that sells the chocolate colored one, the actual subject of this review, provides a WARRANTY for American buyers that does not require you to try to communicate with les braves gens de Peugeot. Bravo!

Solid, Well Designed and Flawless Performance
Looks good and works like a jewel. You can set coarseness of grind easily. Solid wood with solid steel grinder. This is the way they should be made. Bravo Peugeot.

A beautiful pepper mill!
I’m not a pepper fanatic, but this is a beauty. It’s extremely well-made, and a pleasure to use. The variable grinds are lovely.

I like this peppermill, nice size, some non-intuitive things
It’s a nice peppermill, and I think it’s a nice size. It also grinds well. Definitely can be given as a modest gift, probably with high-quality peppercorns. It actually had a few peppercorns in it when it arrived (I assume to test it).The only downside is I wish it would use words instead of “I II III IIII IIIII IIIIII” around the barrel — is I coarse? Fine?Anyway, I still like it.

Excellent Pepper Mill!
Ok, I’ll admit that I thought that pepper mills were pretty much the same – you unscrew the little nubbin at the top, pour in the peppercorns and tighten or loosen the nubbin for a finer or coarser grind. And I had a beautiful stainless pepper mill that I did this with for years. But the grind on it was always inconsistent- I couldn’t get it to be really fine and the screw at the top would loosen up over time resulting in large chunks of pepper when I didn’t want them. Finally, after reading a reviews for the Peugeot pepper mill on Wirecutter and Cooks Illustrated, I decided to bite the bullet and just get a new one. Can I say GAMECHANGER??? FINALLY, I can get the grind I really want with no loosening of the top screw. The select a size does a great job of getting superfine to coarse grind and even the coarse grind is consistent and well, edible! It is sturdy, but not heavy. Well worth the nearly $40 price tag as I am sure it will last for many years. Will relegate my stainless pepper mill to kitchen decor. 😉

Get a coffee grinder instead
A $50 coffee grinder will significantly outperform this grinder (and most pepper grinders).A good coffee grinder, like a Timemore C3, can be set to an exact grind size, from very fine to coarse, and will hold that size until you change the setting. The coffee grinder will also feed the pepper consistently, and it has a long crank to turn easily.This grinder does not hold the grind size. The screw at the top comes loose during grinding and this changes the grind size. If you tighten the screw the grinder won’t turn. In addition, it’s very easy to bump the adjustment at the bottom and change the grind size.This grinder also doesn’t feed the pepper consistently. Frequently it will stop feed pepper and you have to turn or rotate it or shake it to get it to feed again. This occurs when using the expensive peppercorns that Peugot sells for their grinders. I am not talking about issues with some odd-sized or unusual type of peppercorns.For the same price, get a coffee grinder and have a much much better result.

Best pepper grinder!
This is the same model of the one I have had in my kitchen as a kid. (It still works) I bought one for our house and another for my daughter and her husband. As long as you keep them out of the way of steam on the stove, they will last forever. The gears need cleaned every few years. I usually do it when I refill.I love the adjustable grind. It works for us all. I found a great price on the chocolate color models. The others were twice as expensive.

This is very high quality. Love the adjustable base for grind.

Perpermolen werkt zeer goed,je kan zelfkiezen hoe fijn gewoon door onderaan te draaien, (het draaien is veel gemakkelijker) loopt op wieltjes wat ik gewoon ben van het merk Peugeot.De vorige hadden zeer lang gehad +- 20 jaar als niet meer is.Een aanrader zeker ð
Mr. D. Wicks –
Arrived very quickly and all that sort of stuff. I have used an old pepper mill for years and I was very happy with it. Then it failed so I replaced it with a trendy glass one with a ceramic grinder. It was total rubbish and a waste of money. I like peeper so I bit the bullet and bought this somewhat pricy one. Worth every penny. It works flawlessly with the minimum amount of effort. There are several settings from course to fine so it will work in all sorts of situations. Well worth the money, it has a steel grinder and a lifetime guarantee. It also comes in a range of sizes so you can buy one to suit your budget. Highly recommended.
