Lacks a lightI had gotten used to having a light to see the actual product being dispensed from a previous grinder. I bought this grinder based on it being made by Kyocera in Japan. I also wish that the peppercorn bin was a little larger. If I had designed this, I would have put a small hand rest stop like on the end of it like a baseball bat. I feel somewhat insecure that it would slip out of my hand and drop into a pot of soup or stew while using it. Otherwise as a grinder, it is excellent.

BrilliantI got this grinder in white here for salt, and got an identical black one from another vendor for pepper since it was out of stock here. I was replacing some C&M ones that required six AAA batteries, and found that many models listed here were very similar, some with names you’ve heard of, some not. I speculate that all run on the same/similar six-AAA drivetrain from China. My old ones were terrible (falling apart even under normal use and depleting batteries at a stupendous rate), so I wanted to avoid all those similar ones. These Kycoera ones run on four AA batteries so were an obviously different drivetrain. Sure enough, it is fabulous. The build quality is far better than on my old C&M ones. The open, close, and lock movements are crisp and tight. The burrs are pretty big and run very smoothly. The motor turns comparatively more slowly than on my old six-AAA units, yet grinds better. The unit has a very large capacity, so needs filling less often than my old, narrower units. A great plus is the stand that the grinder perches on. It doubles as a cup that catches loose remaining particles after each use, so that (a) those don’t end up all over your countertop; and (b) every so often you can pitch the contents of the stand into a recipe and so not waste salt/pepper. Nice touch. Finally: I have had this grinder for nearly six months now, and have not yet had to replace the batteries for the first time. The only downside of this grinder is I might like a wider available range of coarse to fine adjustment.FYI: Amazon has a separate listing of this same product, but saying “Japan Domestic genuine products,” and at a higher price. I have no idea what that is, but you seemingly don’t need it. This product that I’m reviewing (regular listing without the “Japan Domestic” note) says on the box “Made in Japan,” so I don’t know what the other item with the price premium is about.EPILOGUE April 2020: I’ve finally just replace the batteries (in the pepper grinder, not salt) for the first time. This means they lasted almost TWO YEARS (in daily use), and in fact technically the old batteries were only labouring and turning the grinder extremely slowly, not fully dead. As I alluded to above, my old grinders went through six AAA batteries approx. every six weeks, so the comparative savings in batteries (cost-wise, and in terms of not filling the landfill with dead batteries) is massive with this grinder.

Works well – I made a couple changes to fix some minor issuesI bought one for pepper and it worked well, but I noticed that the base comes off too easily. To fix this, I bought a set of these bands – https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08KFNX22Y . This keeps the base from falling off and also allowed me to color code three grinders – salt, pepper and and herb blend. I bought all black models of the grinder because, at the time, they were $10 less than the white ones.I also use rechargeable batteries in the grinders. These are the best – https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00JHKSN5I . And this is a good charger – https://www.amazon.com/Tenergy-TN160-12-Bay-Battery-Charger/dp/B006ML9SO0 . The batteries last longer than the “refill” time, but I just swap in a set of charged batteries when I do the refill.

It’s a very good itemIt’s a very good item ,the only problem is the base holder is too too light, will be improved in future?

Worth the moneyI was very hesitant to spend twice as much on such a trivial item especially when there are so many others that are a fraction of this one.So I didn’t and bought a different brand and after 1yr, tons of frustration due to not working-underpowered electric grinders, and about a dozen batteries I decided to give it a shot.These things are absolutely perfect, they work 100% of the time and NEVER GET STUCK. Also in 9 months still 1 set of batteries. We’ll see how long they last. We are 6 people at home and all of us use it every day.Got another for pepper, expensive but love it.I admit it is a luxury item, but why get a luxury item that doesn’t work?

Smooth operator 😉This looks great, holds a good amount and grinds smoothly. A small complaint is that you have to be careful and hold it tilted when filling it because the salt or peppercorns can fall out. The base is nice to catch stray grinds but is slightly subject to tipping due to its height. Great to have the 2 colors if you want one for salt and one for pepper.

Works very well. Nice mix of grind. Batteries last a long time.I’ve had this four months now and still using first set of four batteries. So glad I bought this. Not sure why it took me so long. Such a conveience when cooking. Works. Very well. Wish it had greater peppercorn capacity. I have two other manual grind Kyoceras which I use for salt.Update: ten months and counting on the original batteries. We use it virtually everyday, often several times a day.Update: 13 months and the original batteries are still working. When I peppered a large beef rib roast before Christmas I was amazed that it got the job done, running continuously for about a minute and 3-4 minutes total. I just refilled it again today for the second or third time this month.Update: OK! I changed the batteries on 2Feb19! Quite incredible run of 15 months. They were Duracell. I’ve replaced them with Amazon batteries.

This solved my problemI have a problem with my hands and the pepper mill I had was difficult to use. I ordered this and I just love it…it is so easy to use, quiet, and gets the right amount of seasonings on my food

Works great, but not ergonomic.The grinder works fantastically well. However I’d like to be able to use it with one hand. Due to the design if you try to use your thumb to press the button on the top you end up pushing the entire grinder out of your hand and into your salad. I have to use 2 hands to use this thing, or be extremely careful with one hand. If only the designer had designed a flare at the top it would be perfect.
