Customer Reviews of Trudeau Graviti Battery-Operated Pepper Mill, Black
Customer Rating: Rating: 3/5Rating: 3/5Rating: 3/5Rating: 3/5Rating: 3/5
Summary: Not the same old grind
Comment: Well made. this product uses too many battteries. Also it should only work when turned upside down. It starts when turned sideways. Also should have a larger reserve for pepper and the grind size is too big even when adjusted

Customer Rating: Rating: 4/5Rating: 4/5Rating: 4/5Rating: 4/5Rating: 4/5
Summary: Good item
Comment: My husband and I love this grinder. We actually bought several for gifts and an extra one for ourselves to use as a sea salt grider. Only 2 disadvantages to this grinder (one is why I didn't give it 5 stars).

The unit doesn't hold very much product, which means it needs to be re-filled often. In order to re-fill the unit, the base must be removed and the base is quite snug (and is difficut to remove). You want to turn the grinder over to remove the base, which turns the grinder on- that is quite frustrating.

To those who would like to use this as a sea salt grinder, beware that it grinds the salt rapidly which can oversalt your food. This is not a disadvantage to the grinder itself as it was not made to be a salt grinder.

Other than the above, we love this grinder and think it's a great buy. Amazon also has the best price- I found this grinder at a large national retailer for almost $30.00, so this is a great price!!

Summary: Handy, but not perfect
Comment: This is a handy product, but it has a few problems:
Pros.
1. Works well and is highly adjustable.
2. I like a lot of pepper. It would sometimes take me a couple of minutes to grind with a manual grinder what I can now grind in seconds.
Cons.
1. Grinder stem contains a spring that is easily dislodged. It ends up in the peppercorns if you aren't very careful when refilling. Also, if you accidentally overfill it, the spring will fall out when you empty the excess peppercorns and you will have to get a tool to reinstall it. It's not a huge problem but is mildly annoying.
2. Sounds like an electric pencil sharpener. The motor is a bit loud.

A rechargable model might be better. I used Duracell batteries and the required 6 AAA batteries lasted three months. I use it rather intensely 5 days a week, so your mileage may vary.

Just be careful when installing batteries.

Summary: Love it!!!
Comment: My husband bought me one of these for my birthday and I fell in love with it. I bought this one and put coarse sea salt in it. The only bad thing I can say is that it is a little difficult to refill.


More Reviews The Graviti Pepper Mill features a grinding mechanism located at the top of the mill that automatically begins to grind as it is flipped upside down. Gravity sensors initiate and terminate grinding based on the movement and position of the mill. Isaac Newton would have definitely approved of the new Graviti Mill! The latest revolutionary addition to Trudeau's extensive line of pepper and salt mills has an easy-to-use tilt motion. No buttons are required to activate this battery-operated mill. Newton wannabes simply have to insert the batteries, flip the mill and let gravity do the rest! Ideal for everyone, the Graviti Mill is effortless and can be used with just one hand. Equipped with a ceramic grinder, the strongest and most durable grinding mechanism on the market, the Graviti Mill will maintain its sharpness and never rust even when used over a steaming pot. All Trudeau ceramic mills first cut then grind to maximize flavour. Trudeau Graviti Mill: no button, no effort, no mess!

Choosing Appliance -> Fridge / Freezers
A large number of freezers have eliminated defrosting by continually circulating the air inside the freezer compartment, thus avoiding frost build-up -- a feature well worth paying a little extra for.
Choosing Appliance -> Whip / Whisk
Many still consider a whip as a "gourmet" piece of kitchen equipment. Nothing could be further from the truth. It is as essential as a kitchen stove and should be in everyone's kitchen. Nothing works better for mixing a multitude of different preparations or for making sauces or gravy. Buy a solid stainless steel whip with moderately stiff wires. Very thin wires are for mixing delicate things like egg whites or whipped cream. Very thick, solid wires are for mixing stiff dough.
