William Bounds Key Mill "WB-1" Pepper Mill Review

William Bounds Key Mill 'WB-1' Pepper Mill
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
See I love this little grinder.It really is so helpful when I am cooking... opposed to constantly twisting.I also love the fine, course, medium setting.I did not have any problem with the knob on the top becoming loose.I also love the crushing mechanism rather than the conventional grinding that comes with others.I wish it was cheaper so that I could get a salt one as well.Come on Amazon.. sell the salt mill.

This mill is exactly what I have been looking for.It works flawlessly, since the screw nob on top is not used to adjust the grind size you can keep it tight so it does not move when you use the mill.The variable grind sizes provide plenty of versitility.It has a nice substantial wieght and size and grinds with little effort.

Once the grind size is set, it will stay in place until the user changes it. This mill is equipped with Peugeot's legendary pepper grinding mechanism.Made of case-hardened steel, it has received additional treatment against wear and corrosion.Its double-row of helix-shaped claws grab and crack each peppercorn, before drawing it down to the teeth for the perfect grind.Mill is 9-1/2-inches tall with a black matte finish.

Olde Thompson Columbia Brushed Peppermill and Salt Shaker Review

Olde Thompson Columbia Brushed Peppermill and Salt Shaker
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I've had my set for almost 3 1/2 years.The pepper mill just broke, so I'm now searching for a replacement set.(There's a black plastic piece inside that seems to turn the peppercorns to move them further down into the teeth to be ground. That piece broke and the grinder no longer works very well.)

The pros:
- The top of the pepper mill unscrews to fill
- you can adjust how coarse/fine you want your pepper
- looks good

The cons:
- You constantly have to tighten the screw on the pepper mill to keep the grind where you want it (not really an issue for me, but may be for others...)
- salt leaks out the bottom of the shaker
- you have to fill the salt shaker from the bottom, meaning you have to cover the holes on the top to avoid spilling all the salt you're putting in
- material is some sort of plastic, which feels cheap to me

Overall, it's an okay set, but I think I will find a different set for the next ones I get

I love this pepper mill.However, I do not reccommend dropping it in a pot of water!My first one did not survive it. :DBut the quality is great, I love that it is one you flip over since the mills that have the pepper coming out from the bottom leave pepper on the counter.

Great set. Our other Olde Thompson set was 20+ years old and still perfectly fine, but we wanted a larger set so we'd have to fill them less often.We love the adjustable pepper grinder.My son and I like it coarse, but my husband prefers a finer grind.It will last a long time.We passed our older set on for more years of use by another family.

Looks great. Don't get me wrong, we love great design and the green color is "in" but we returned it. Very weak power and not functional. We went with function over form and got a "unicorn magnum pepper grinder". Doesn't look as "cool" but is absolutely the best you can buy. Get and keep inside your cupboard!

William Bounds Rainbow Opal Salt Mill Review

William Bounds Rainbow Opal Salt Mill
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I use coarse organic sea salts because of the health benefits involved and the fantastic taste. Who knew there was so much to learn about the proper mill to use for grinding it?

When I started researching salt and pepper mills the first thing of import that I learned was that the finest salt mills use ceramic mechanisms for "grinding."The second was that it is better to crush the spice than actually grind it.

I turned to researching what salt mills the great chefs in the world use and that is how I found William Bounds pepper and salt mills. I found some that were higher priced, but had lower reviews than William Bounds. The salt mills that they create have both ceramic mechanisms and the `crushing rather than grinding' action. The mechanisms are also guaranteed for life.

After that, all I had to choose was the style that I most liked; and they have a great many to choose from. One of the things I like most about this company is that they offer high-end mills that are priced in range for just about anyone willing to spend a few extra dollars on something that will stay attractive and last for as long as you want it too. I don't know what mills the ultra wealthy use, but I can't imagine them working any finer than these William Bounds.

I ended up choosing this "rainbow acrylic" salt and pepper mill as I thought it would be fun colored for my grandkids and hard for them to break. They have a weight to them that feels perfect in my small hand as well as my 6' 3" son's huge hands. They were a touch heavy for my five year old grandson, but he could still use them easily. My grandson loves the colors; even as adults, my son and I kept noticing them sparkling. They really are attention grabbers. William Bounds also has a copper set that I will most likely buy for adult-centered, professional dinners.

When I first received them, I couldn't wait to use them. They are the finest units that I have ever used. I cannot recommend them higher. The action is ultra smooth and changing textures (fine-medium-coarse) is a breeze. Included is good pepper and coarse sea salt; but I prefer the salt I have been using for years so I changed it out. The crushing action (I assume) even managed to introduce me to a new, fresher, taste in an already well known and loved spice.

Buy with confidence; these are great.

Product Description:
William Bounds 7 3/4" Rainbow Opal salt mill. The William Bounds milling mechanism (the grinder) works in a way that crushes rather than grinds the peppercorns. As a result, the mechanism will never jam or freeze up, and because metal is not grinding on metal - as with other mills - the William Bounds mechanism will never wear out.This sturdy, 4-inch-tall, shaker/grinder offers three pepper grind settings, coarse, medium, and fine, that are changeable with a twist of a chrome adjustment ring. A knob on the chrome top unscrews so the top can be removed for refilling salt, and the salt chamber comes off to provide an opening for refilling pepper. Clear-acrylic bodies allow monitoring of both salt and pepper levels. Sleek, modern,compact and colorful.

MIU Electric Peppermill Review

This unit works fine.

However, do not expect much control over the granularity of your pepper.

I tested by setting out a white paper towel and setting the grid level using the knob to six different settings.

There is *very* little difference from coarse to fine...and fine contains chunks of pepper.

Addendum

The new shipments do NOT include the six AA batteries.

I chose this pepper grinder because of the great reviews it received, and also because it comes combined with a salt grinder, saving space since my kitchen is pretty small.

One of the previous reviewers said this grinder doesn't seem to cater to acoarse grind as easily as it does a fine grind; this worried me a little because I prefer a coarse grind.After receiving the unit, I played with it a little bit, and figured out that when you adjust the ceramic mechanism for a coarse grind, the spacing doesn't open up until you twist the unit in the opposite direction of normal operation.So this unit actually does fine grind and coarse grind equally and exceptionally well.And it produces large amounts of fresh ground pepper and salt really efficiently.I highly recommend it.

This looks great and is very solid. Much better then a different Salt and Pepper grinder which broke last week. This is elegant and very sturdy. It took some detective work to figure out how to refill it. But its so simple! The entire lid pulls straight off (the whole part that says Boldum). I would recommend this!
