Review on Olde Thompson Stainless Steel Pepper by Jamie Northcutt

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Attention: NOT round!

I ordered this after seeing something very similar at a friend's. Couldn't find this brand but found this one. Has been checked well and looked solid (it seems). BUT I was very surprised when the item arrived and I opened the box to find a very oval coffee grinder. I went back to the photos and the item description to make sure I didn't receive the wrong item. I had to look a few times to be sure it is exactly the item in the picture - the pictures just give a very strong optical illusion, especially when you "expect" a round one. Attached is a photo from top to bottom which should be part of the product description. Practical importance, besides looks? One of the reasons I liked my friend's coffee grinder was that you would spin it until you had the exact amount of salt or pepper you wanted and then stop. Not in this case. Keep twisting until the lid matches the body, otherwise it will look silly. I will keep it but wanted others to know what they are buying.

Pros
  • Finally bought
Cons
  • A little wrinkled
