Kuhn Rikon Ratchet Spice Grinder, 8.5-Inch

This is my 2nd set of these ratchet grinders that I use as salt and peppercorn grinders. Needless to say I love and use so much I wore my first set out after 10 years!

This has gotten moderate use in my kitchen and my family’s kitchen for more than 6 years now, which to me means an auto-recommend. We have 2, one for salt and one for pepper, and both are still going strong. However, they’re made even better by decent capacity and also striking design. I always get questions about these from friends when they see them in my kitchen. They look just as good as they did initially. Highly recommend these quality grinders!

I had one of these pepper mills, I really liked it too! But the filler door broke on it, causing the pepper corns to spill out. The plastic material, and location of the break did not lend itself to repair, so I bought another one. I REALLY like this peppermill, because it's fun to use. Our family makes fun of the ratchet sound, the flippety-floppety motion of the grind handle... it's hilarious. I even will buy another if this one breaks. I guess the questionable quality keeps this item from 5 stars. Hope you have better luck.. and lots of fun!

This grinder was purcahsed to be able to grind just a couple of whole clove and a coule of all spice seeds at a time, It can't do it, the spices won't go down in to the grindeing burr area. Very sad.

I bought one years ago to grind black pepper as I have arthritic hands. So easy to grind I recently bought two more for family members. Store bought hand grinders are too difficult to twist.

Used this grinder for years several times per day - one for salt and one for pepper. Durable, easy to use, and just the right grind size and consistency.
