Review on ๐ŸŒถ๏ธ Enhance Your Seasoning Experience: Electric Salt and Pepper Grinder Set with Stand - Premium Stainless Steel Spice Mills for Coarse Seasoning - Battery Powered with Light (9551 set) by Denise Francis

Revainrating 3 out of 5

The motor is not powerful enough to grind peppers.

I would like to give this grinder set 5 stars but I can't. I bought them in fall 2020 and was thrilled when I received them for the first time. They look great, hold plenty of salt and pepper, adjust coarse/fine easily, come in a nice box, but they have 2 flaws that stand out to me.1. The motor didn't have enough power to grind the peppercorns. I've tried different types of pepper and they all do the same thing. No matter what roughness you set them to, they'll start grinding, grabbing right away and making a horrible clicking sound. To release the grinding wheel you need to turn the grinder upside down, turn the knob to coarse (as far as the knob will allow) and then press the knob to turn on the grinder and allow the bound pepper chunks to grind. fall back into the tank by gravity. I tried adjusting the coarseness to see if it was just a problem if I ground it too fine, but it didn't matter. On the roughest setting it still binds when I add pepper. At first I thought I might have put the pepper in the wrong grinder, so I tried it in a different one and it came out the same. I just swapped the vertices to see if the motor on one worked better on the other and that didn't work either. I am very disappointed that they don't grind peppers as that is the main reason I bought this set. On the plus side, they work great with regular sea salt and Himalayan pink sea salt. These grinders grind the contents very quickly, which comes in handy when you need to add salt to a soup pot or measure out a large amount of salt. I only wish they had done the same with pepper.2. The top of the handle on the trolley is at the same level as the grinders, so lifting the device by the trolley handle is quite inconvenient, as it is difficult to put your finger through the loop to lift it. I read the same comment in a review and decided to take a chance as all the other reviews I read were so great. If that were the only flaw with the set I would probably give it 5 stars.

Pros
  • Easy installation
Cons
  • Interchangeability
