Customer Reviews of William Bounds Acrylic/Chrome Key Salt Mill
Customer Rating:   Summary: uneven grind, jerking motion when cranking handle Comment: I bought some Himalayan Pink salt which looks nice in the clear acrylic. But even on the fine setting, it lets larger chunks through and isn't as fine as I like. The handle jumps forward in a jerky motion, getting more salt on food than you wanted. You have to crank the handle in the direction of the fine grind on the dial, if you don't the dial sometimes skips to the medium setting. The nut on the top loosens frequently. You'd be better off buying a traditional mill in the acrylic. Customer Rating: Summary: Don't buy it, look for better ones Comment: Have had this mill for two days, used it about 5 times. First, good part. It grinds salt and looks cute. And that' about it. Problems? Aside it arriving with multiple cracks on the bottom piece that hold the grinder, major multiple design flaws that make using this mill a horror story. 1. The size and shape of the mill make you hold onto its body which is tapered up toward the coarseness adjusting ring. The ring is spring loaded toward the bottom and that's how it adjusts coarseness by lifting the ceramic part from the stainless steel casing and opening up the grinding mechanism. The shape makes your holding hand push up the adjusting ring which releases unground salt particles. Bad shape for holding for the size. 2. The metal turning arm is in contact with the rotating adjustment ring to the bottom and with the locking knob on top. When you turn the arm both of those move as well automatically changing the coarseness for you or loosening the top knob. 3. The knob on the crank doesn't turn so when you crank it's not smooth and uncomfortable to grind more than a little bit. 4. The size of crank arm is too short making the crank jerky. Overall not smooth. Pass this. That's about it. I'm sending this one back. Can't stand how it's designed. Customer Rating: Summary: SALT MILL Comment: Nice looking and easy to use.. I can use fine or coarse salt in my cooking. Customer Rating: Summary: Great grinder Comment: Really enjoying this grinder. Good price. Good looking. Careful, though, it puts out a good deal of salt. More Reviews Simply turn the handle and sea salt, coarse, fine or in between, will season your food. This mill has a traditional mechanism but its stylish combo of acrylic and chrome bring it right up to date. 
Choosing Appliance -> Hobs If you enjoy eastern cuisine, you can buy a speciality hob with a wok burner. Similarly if you are a BBQ fan, choose a BBQ grill. If you are left handed, go for front rather than right hand side controls as this eliminates the risk of reaching across the heat. If you cook for a large family, more than four rings may be useful, and if you have young children it may be worth considering paying a little extra for a hob guard or in the case of gas, choosing an automatic re-ignition or cut off device should the flame blow out. Choosing Appliance -> Spoons Buy stainless spoons (both slotted and non-slotted) which are solid and won't bend no matter how tough the job. Also, buy several high quality wooden spoons for stirring delicate dishes like risotto (the sharp edge of a metal spoon would cut or bruise the rice). William Bounds Acrylic/Chrome Key Salt Mill
