Trudeau Silver Salt/Pepper Gravity Mill:
No button, no effort and no mess! This Trudeau Graviti Mill is one of the coolest and most convenient gadgets for the kitchen! It makes a great cook's tool as well as the perfect gift for friends or family. Simply fill the mill with fresh pepper and just flip it to use! It comes filled already with fresh gourmet peppercorns and is made with a high-impact ceramic grinder that is as hard as hardened steel! It can also be used with sea salt crystals so don't limit yourself to only using peppercorns. Runs on six AAA batteries, which are not included. Under normal use, the batteries should last more than year. Comes with a 1-year warranty.

by Ken (Reno, NV) 1 review I discovered, by accident, that the manufactrurer fills the grinder with very soft pepper corns so that it doesn't jam. When I took the battery pack out, I accidentally spilled all the pepper out and some of it fell on the floor and I stepped on it. I noticed that the pepper corns were very soft; I could crush them with my fingers. I became suspicious because another purchaser mentioned a problem with the grinder jamming. So I filled it with pepper from McCormick spice comany and, sure enough, it immediately jammed repeatedly. I then tried pepper from Kirkland (COSTCO) with the same result. I immediately sent it back for a refund. That thing is a worthless piece of junk.
by greg (Tehachapi, CA) 1 review This was the biggest waste of money I think I have ever spent, I only opened one of these to use as a pepper grinder and it takes about 30 seconds to get the pepper out.I bought these due to its manufactures stated use, but it is not even close. I would have rated this product as a zero, but I wasn't given that option.
This was suggested to me by a customer service employee who answered the phone. I know now that they don't know anything about the products (that) they sell. I will never use this company to purchase anything.
by James (Wakefield, VA) 1 review After the reviews I read prior to purchasing this product I thought this would be a great performer. However, after we got it it kept binding up when it was grinding pepper and it eventually just got completely bound up. We bought a hand (manual grind) pepper grinder to replace it because we love freshly ground pepper.
by sara (Petaluma, CA) 2 reviews My husband and I love this grinder. We bought the red one for pepper and the chrome for salt. Our only complaint is that the salt comes out a little too course for our liking in most applications, however, the pepper comes out perfectly. It is an ideal contraption for cooking and is extremely fun to show off to our guests. Great purchase!
