Good Grips Accent Mess-Free Pepper Grinder

If, like me, you've been suffering for your art with an old wooden mill - there is and answer and here it is..... There are a number of things I like about these which make them pretty much spot on for me...... in no particular order; They are good to grip... you hold onto the whole body of the thing and twist the grooved and grippy rubber end which provides a positive action; The shaft between the rubber handle and the actual grinder feels very solid - how it should be; the mechanism seems well engineered and crushes without any judder; the resistance between the handle and the body is none existent so all force used turning the unit is translated to the milling action; there is no interruption of flow of salt/pepper to the grinder; the outlet is at the top of the mill so there's no mess; the quality is robust and well finished; refilling is a joy - there's a huge unscrewable opening at the bottom of the unit. The granulation size is simply adjustable and from fine (it is very fine) through to coarse (very coarse) in 5 easy stages - I thought that this was a little gimmicky but it isn't - you can add a lot of salt/pepper while cooking and seasoning - and a fine powder at the table. They work so well and are so well made that I'm actually getting to quite like the design - they look a lot better in the "flesh" than they do in pictures....

Upside down grinders mean that no mess is left on the table. Easy to change grinding size - fine to coarse with the flick of an easy to use lever. Easy to refill - can be unscrewed and filled easily Grinding grip makes easy to use for stuff hands. I like everything about this. OXO has totally delivered on a number of my every day kitchen gadgets. I also love the little scrubby detail brushes. Some person has stolen the one with the rubber finger on the end and I will be buying a new one. The only one I don’t like is the dustpan and brush. Well done design team.

Really solid & well made. Because the grinder is at the top it doesn’t leave a trail of pepper on surfaces.

These last me 5 years each almost to the day. I’m not sure how long a pepper mill should last but they get used daily - several times. This is my 3rd. Loses one star because they have doubled in price in 10 years.

I love pepper as does my husband and years ago we bought a very pretty wooden pepper mill which we have used without problem - accepting that there is always a residue of ground pepper left over. A little messy, but an expected result outweighed by enjoying freshly ground pepper whenever required without too much fuss. I confess over the years it has really begun to niggle - this residue in the cupboard, on the table, on the counter - despite the nifty little plastic lid from something or other which was just a little bigger than the grider base. I saw the upside down mills for salt and pepper and they looked like a gimmicky novelty (lots of those in kitchen depts as you know!). However on a whim I decided to give the Oxo Good Grips pepper grinder a try - and am not sorry. It is an excellent product with all the virtues and no sins I have discovered after months of use. It is straightforward to fill (unscrew the top,there is no central spinal core and locking nut holding it all together!) easy-peasy. The grinder feels robust in use and grinds the peppers to just the degree you require - from really robustly coarse to the finest dusting - all tastes catered for by a simple lever/dial rotation. Thus as it passes round the table each individual taking pepper is free to choose how coarse/fine and how much they require, and it leaves not the slightest sign of its being there on the table afterwards, not one grain of ground pepper .. What more could you ask for - I cannot fault it and would recommend it to you.

Ergonomic, no mess and efficient pepper grinder ….well pleased.

Having previously used the 'traditional' wooden grinders (nice to look at, in a nostalgic, 70's trattoria sort of way, but the bottom rusts eventually and the grinding oomph diminishes, too - plus filling is so darned fiddly!), then moved on to the battery operated ones (huge battery casing, 4 x AA's required, etc, but miniscule pepper container and the ones I bought fell to pieces after about 9 months or so) - decided to buy this as I have the OXO Good Grips shears (excellent!) and the vegetable parer (haven't used yet, but looks very good quality) - not disappointed at all. (Mildly annoying, but after ordering this 'top flight' one, found the 'lesser mortal' in Morrisons for £8, but got that and kept it for cooking, this 'beast' is for the table!). Love the easy dial for graded grinding, an absolute breeze to fill and use (comes with peppercorns and has a huge capacity so you're not re-filling every 5 minutes), and the fact the 'outlet' is on the top means no mess. If you've the funds, get several for varying peppercorns (pink, green, etc) - otherwise stick to a pestle and mortar like I do! Hope it lasts, looks like it will, very robust and nice to handle. Thanks OXO, love your products! Recommended.

Excellent pepper grinder as are all things made by OXO. It just works and does exactly what I want it to do, grind pepper perfectly.

I have one of these for salt, and it’s well built, works well, looks great It’s easy to fill, it’s transparent and has a great brushed steel finish. I decided I want the matching pepper corn crusher too, and found that it was cheaper when I bought a set , in a fancy black metal. So I bought those- meh, not the same, I kept holding back for months and finally got this, and now I’m satisfied. So, go for this, Oxo good grips almost always has given me a good product and this is one of their better ones. It works well, looks great and is easy to maintain. Buy this one- in brushed steel, don’t get the black metal finish that is cheaper when you buy a set, you’ll thank me later.

Maravilhoso!!! Para moer é bem suave, perfeito!!!

easy to use, easy to fill. does a great job.

What an excellent kitchen must have! I had a battery operated peppermill before and it was messy, pepper every where on the counter, luckily it broke. I decided to go manual it has a matching salt set and it's great to use at the dinner table when you have guests. It still looks fancy but very practical and a very good price. The grip is excellent. Watched many YouTube reviews before buying it glad I did, use it everyday.
