PEUGEOT: France, since 1810. PEUGEOT mills are renowned by chefs and gourmet cooks the word over for the consistent grind results they produce, their incredible resilience and proven reliability. Compromise is not a word that fits into the PEUGEOT vocabulary. For each spice, there is one – and only one – PEUGEOT grinding mechanism: peppercorns; coarse dry salt; chilies; wet salts; and nutmeg. Add the coffee mechanism, which started it all and there are six unique PEUGEOT mechanisms. Each is designed to derive the most flavor and greatest aroma from its complementary spice. Aesthetically pleasing, PEUGEOT mills deliver the height of quality, durability, reliability and innovation; making these mills the ones to which all others are compared. PEUGEOT’s mechanism, the strongest and most efficient on the market, establishes the each PEUGEOT mill as a high-performance professional tool. The mechanism is fully adjustable and offers a consistent high-output grind, with better precision adjustments. PEUGEOT uses spice-specific mechanisms that optimize flavor and texture, so its pepper mills crack and then grind peppercorns, and its salt mills shatter and then crush coarse salt. The Nancy includes a salt mill filled with salt from Germany. They are made of crystal-clear high quality acrylic that will never yellow or tarnish. The clear bodies allow the user to have a better knowledge of the amount of spice remaining in the mill. They will fit any kitchen decor and are easy to care for. Just wipe the exterior of the mill with a soft cloth to clean. Water is not recommended. The grind is adjusted by turning the knob clockwise for finer grind and counterclockwise for coarser grind. Lifetime on the mechanism.

worth the freaking moneyThis brand is top notch. Although this is expensive, I’m used to going through salt and pepper shakers about twice a year. So, this is a lifesaver. I expect it to last forever like my pepper shaker from the same company. I first ran into puegot in italy at a restaurant. My husband and I immediately wrote down the brand after we handled a pepper mill over our food. These things are sturdy and so smooth. Really nice quality.

Salt shakerNice set of salt/pepper mills. I liked my friends so I purchased a set.

works (kinda) for salt flakes, NOT rock saltI’ve had a peugeot acrylic pepper grinder for years. Love it. Thought to finally get a matching salt grinder. However, this model will only grind thin flakes of salt. I tried a mortar and pestle to make the rock salt more manageable (it is already the small pebble size). The salt grinder does not grind the salt. I tried pepper corns. It does not work for pepper either. My pepper grinder works perfect with the rock salt. I do wonder if I have a totally bum one, because even the flake salt it came with didn’t get broken up very well. If indeed the design is specific for flake salt, that would be something good to put in the descriptions. I’d love to replace it with another pepper grinder that would work for my rock salt. hello? hello? Photos compare grinding mechanism of this salt model with pepper model.

Good product, poor packagingThe product is excellent. Delivery timeframe the 2nd time around was superb. Product packaging was non-existent. It was ina box by itself rolling around…….room for improvement on this. No where to go but up.

Great for small amounts of grinding, and nice transparent look!I picked this one, as in Europe those mills are famous, and well known for their quality. The transparent look great, as you can see what salt you’ve put inside, specially because I’ve a few of them for black, pink and sea salt.The trick with those kind of grinders is always that you have to tweak the grinder settings with the knob on top. So when you grind, and you touch the knob it will likely change the setting of the grinder. As you only use black and pink salt occasionally, this grinder works fine for it. For sea salt I recommend the other Peogeot mills, like this one: Peugeot PM25458 Daman U’Select Shaftless 8.25 Inch Salt Mill, Stainless Steel. As that one you can ‘lock’ at the bottom, and grind every day for easy use.

DisappointedThe salt comes out much too quickly so it oversalts the food.

Limited UsefulnessThis item seems to work with the salt that comes in it – it isn’t very coarse. But, as mentioned by another reviewer (that I should have read first!) it doesn’t work on Pink Himalyan. The product directions packed with the product, but not mentioned online, list a lot of things including Pink salt that it should not be used with.The quality doesn’t seem to me to be as advertised because there is very little selection possible on the fineness of the salt when grinding it – even with the salt that accompanied the unit. It will not grind as coarsely as common table sale, for example. Virtually no adjustment to the coarseness of the grind.For me, this item proved to be useless. If you get it – be certain to use nothing larger than a medium sized salt in it – coarse just won’t work.

Stop Sending Mills With Salt or Pepper in ThemI’m not as happy with this mill as I thought I would be. I can’t seem to get a fine grind with it. It came filled with coarse salt, which may have solidified. I didn’t really want the salt, so I may have to clean it, refill it with a better grade of salt and then adjust the grind.

Excellent table-top mini salt grinder.The media could not be loaded.
This small salt mill is made in France by Peugeot and is very well made. Yes, the design is old but it works quite well. After using this mill for over three years, we got no complaints so far. The mill looks beautiful and is well made with thought given to aesthetics and ergonomics. The control is simple yet functional (you tighten the screw top for finer grind) and the materials used are top quality – the acrylic is durable and had no fumy smell upon arrival.
