Good valueOnly had occasion to use it a couple of times before losing it to theft in my move to a new apartment. Found that grinding rice to a fine powder is a laborious process. Don’t expect to achieve more than partial grinding or crushing of foodstuff; your palm will hurt after 5 mins. of handling this tool.

GreatI love how heavy it is, and the silicon base keeps it sturdy and from scratching my counters. Seems way more expensive/”luxury” than it is.

No way it grinds riceIt is a beautiful mortar and pestle. Haven’t used it yet to grind spices. It says in the instructions to grind several tablespoons of rice in it before use to clean it out. I tried 3 different types of white rice and unless I wanted to spend an hour, there’s no way I could grind the rice into powder. Seems like something the manufacturer should have done, not me. Hope it grinds spices!

Love this Mortar and Pestle for smaller batches and other reasons!!First of all, this is a truly quality mortar and pestle! After purchasing my first mortar and pestle, I learned not all are created with such quality. This mortar and pestle is ready to use. I first threw a tablespoon of rice in it to get any loose marble dust out of the bowl, rinsed and dried. That’s it it’s ready. What I love about it, is it has a really nice toothe and is able to grind anything with ease! Also, it is beautiful and looks lovely on the counter. I also love the silicone base!! It holds the bowl in place perfectly and the bowl has a slight inward lip so whatever you are grinding isn’t constantly flying out of the bowl. I highly recommend this product! I paid full price for this mortar and pestle and have nothing negative to say about it. By the way, the first picture shows the size compared to my 8″ mortar and pestle.

Very happy with thisThis is even better than I expected. I’m able to grind spices very quickly to the desired coarseness. The weight is substantial, so don’t drop it on a counter or on your feet. And keep a good grip when washing by hand. The rubber base is super versatile for getting a good angle, pivoting and for stability. My one minor complaint is that it doesn’t clean as neatly as I’d hoped, so there is always a bit of a residue/stain from whatever I had previously ground. So I suggest you wait a bit for odors to dissipate between uses.

Haven’t used it yet, but looks nicePurchased “used” with discount due to slight damage. I can’t see anything wrong with it other than a tiny yellowish spot that appears to be part of the stone itself. It’s so small, it’s almost unnoticeable.

Perfect size, well balanced, steady sitting in its base, and pretty as wellThis mortar & pestle set is wonderful – not too big, not too small, very steady when sitting in its silicone base ring. Well sized if you want to pick it up and hold it while grinding down spices. After a couple of month’s use it hasn’t picked up any permanent stains though it did take some scrubbing to get a few BBQ rubbing spices cleaned out of it. My DH’s hands and mine are very different sizes but we both work with it and are very happy with this choice.

Works well, smaller than expected.This is my first mortar and pestle, so I don’t have any reference to compare, but it seems like a well built item. It is a bit smaller than expected, maybe that’s the size they’re supposed to be..? Works great for grinding spices.

Terrific!I am pleased with this purchase. It arrived as promised. VERY well boxed and packaged. The quality of the stone is lovely with a nice pattern. The inside of the bowl is very rough and perfect for grabbing and grinding herbs. The pestel matches the main bowl and is comfortable to hold for grinding. I especially like the silicon non-skid base (black) which holds the bowl at any angle and grips the countertop well. The mortar is a 1 cup volume.

Mortar And PestleThis is a gift, but I opened it to make sure all was ok before gifting. The mortar is absolutely stunning and beautiful in quality. I am so thrilled I purchased this style. Seems like the perfect size, sturdy base so no messes to be made in the process. Absolutely would recommend this style and buy another if I should have the need to.
