We have owned and used these mills for 18 months and I cannot recommend them, unless you don't care that they will need to be replaced within two years. The small one-handed mills look terrific on the table. The functionality stops there. The units tend to fall over (something my husband corrected by building a holder). Sometimes it takes herculian strength to push the thumb plunger -I didn't know that salt could be so hard. There is no grind adjustment, and most times the amount that comes out is inadequate. The salt mill is showing corrosion (turning green) around the visible spring and the acrylic has cracked at the base. We are now shopping for new mills.

I initially got interested in the button style mills when I switched from standard table salt to kosher salt. Kosher salt tastes better and is generally more useful for cooking. The problem is it does not work with any shaker I know. These mills are brilliant for dispensing a consistent amount of finely ground salt with an easy push of your thumb. After using it in the kitchen for a year or so I bought a couple more, one for black pepper and one for white pepper. All three are never far out of my reach when I am cooking. They are also easily attractive enough to be used for table service. The one I have used for over a year shows no appreciable signs of wear so I know it is rugged. I use mine mostly for kosher salt, but I have no doubt it would handle coarser salts as well.

These are really thin and somewhat top heavy, so get knocked over all the time, finally causing the acrylic to crack. The one-handed idea sounds good in theory, but in practice, unless you're looking for physical therapy, it's a real pain to use. Literally. Plus, very little comes out per press, and there is no ability to adjust the coarseness. Get a grinder.

Honest reviews on PepperMate One Handed Salt and Pepper Mill Set Set of 2

These grinders work great. I have had no problems using them with only one hand.

(I'm using Sea Salt and Tellicherry peppercorns from Wegmans)

The only negative is that I always get the question "How much do they cost" followed by shock and disbelief.

I think they are worth the money, but I haven't found anyone else who agrees.

I would recommend these grinders.
