Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Kuhn Rikon Vase Seasoning Grinder, White
Customer Review: Disappointing: Revised
Summary: 2 Stars
I was really looking forward to these grinders because of what I thought was an excellent design. No getting pepper on the table - great idea. We put them on our wedding registry - two, in white and black, for our salt and pepper. They are a little pricey for such a basic item, but what the heck.
Problem is that they dont work well.
Grinding sea salt is OK, although a lot of excess salt tends to build up on the lip of the grinder, generally letting loose all at once so its hard to control how much salt you actually put on your food.
As a pepper grinder this product gets an "F". It cant handle the pepper corns, often getting jammed. Unfortunately, this means that after six months, the plastic grinding mechanism has become stripped and mostly doesnt turn at all. In addition, the ceramic grinding surface has already begun to wear out.
All I can say is "beware". These might work OK for some softer spices, but they've turned me from an enthusiastic buyer into a skeptic in a very short time.
Revised: As it turns out, the grinder was defective and broke shortly after I posted this review. We returned the pepper grinder and it was replaced without charge. We have been using the replacement grinder for several months and it is working OK now. It does actually grind the peppercorns acceptably. I have upgraded the rating accordingly.
Description of Kuhn Rikon Vase Seasoning Grinder, White
80% of flavor is really aroma. To get the most aroma from spices and seeds, it's best to grind them fresh. That's easy with the Kuhn Rikon Vase Grinder equipped with the original CrushGrind® ceramic mechanism that's sharper and stronger than steel. Grind salt and pepper, sure. But with this specialty mill you can grind herbs like Rosemary, spices such as cardamom, flax seed...even coffee! You get power and precision, the adjustment wheel moves easily from extremely fine to coarse. And, there is no telltale dust left behind because the grinding device sits on top. You turn it over to grind.Herb & Spice Mills
