WMFElectric Mill, Stainless Steel, Multi-Colour

I bought two of these just before Christmas 2014 as a present for my husband. Nearly one year on and I can happily report that they are (still) brilliant! They work really well and are nice and sturdy. We have children so they've been dropped a couple of times but haven't broken (yet)! At nearly £90 for two they are expensive but, in my opinion, they are worth it as they are something we use every day. We have had numerous other types of salt and pepper grinders, some have been better than others, but all have failed or broken eventually. These seem to be the best we have tried so far and we are very happy with them.

Love the way this pepper mill works, you just tip it over food and it automatically dispenses ground pepper. Turn it upright and it stops. A tiny amount remains in the top but this is infinitely better than my old one which kindly dispensed the excess everywhere especially in my cupboard! I do use it for cooking rather than on the table and it feels nice in my hand. It is quite chunky so doesn't really look like a table item but there is nothing to stop you using it as a table item if you are not bothered by the size. My old one had a light but this one doesn't - I don't really miss the light as I have good lighting in my kitchen but it may be a negative for some people. However the light on my old one didn't last, in fact I went through two Salter ones before this and the light was always the first thing to go and the grinding action lasted only a year or two (probably due to some plastic components). This quality mill is guaranteed 10 years for the grinding action (they state guaranteed to function faultlessly), it has ceramic grinders (instructions say it is suitable for salt, pepper, spices and dried herbs) and it overall feels very well made.BTW Amazon don't make it clear (or they didn't when I purchased mine) but it does come with 6 AAA batteries included in the box so you are all ready to go!

Feels solid and works perfectly. Loved the idea of a gravity operated mill. The item is not as big a some people have suggested. I kinda wish I bought a second one for salt, but it would be a bit of a waste as I don't use saltTwo negatives for me:Why the need for 4 AAA batteries? The compartment is big enough to house fewer AA batteries surely.Price! Expensive compared to others, but so long as it lasts I don't mind paying for it.

Excellent product. I bought 2 of this model. No longer need to press any button or push so many times for grinding the salt and pepper. Very smart design for those need to prepare food for the family. Thinking to buy another one for grinding flax seed or sesame but need to try first.Tried to grind flax seed and sesame but it does not work... but still love it!

I've tried a LOT of electric pepper mills in the past years, including top of the range and expensive Peugeot ones such as the Elis model. The WMF model is by far the best I have had.The main problem with electric pepper mills is that they clog up and end up grinding in the void. So far the WMF has totally avoided this problem. It grinds very reliably, each time. Also, it is gravity operated, which means that you just turn it upside down and it grinds. This is good because if you have to hold a button pressed to grind pepper you can get finger fatigue if grinding a large volume.Finally, the WMF mill is very well built, so good value for money.

I’m surprised no one mentioned this but literally after a year the plastic clips/slots (3 of them around the circumference) that hold the pepper container cracked and broke. I contacted the manufacturer who said was unfortunate and would only give 10% off a new one as a gesture of goodwill which you had to buy from them in Germany (ie. not Amazon). The pepper mill was good before it broke and it does use 6 x AAA batteries which seems excessive.

Was a bit sceptical about buying at first, but now that I've used it, I'm glad I took the plunge. I have used it as a peppermill, and will buy another to use for salt in due course. It's solidly built, comfortable to hold, has a bigger reservoir than most of the previous mills I've owned,and as soon as you tip it upside down, it starts to grind. Coarseness is adjustable, so you can suit your needs accordingly. Batteries included, which was nice!What's not to like?....highly recommended.

Excellent quality. Tried others before ending up with these. Yes they are more expensive but have had zero problems. The build quality is excellent and they actually use Stainless Steel for the cases of the units, where many other are simply plates plastic. The mechanisms are robust. They take quite a few batteries but to be fair these have lasted 5 months and are used daily and still running. - Highly Recommended

As expected

Funktioniert wunderbar. Einfach umdrehen und schon gehts los. Hört auch sofort auf zu mahlen wenn man es wieder rum dreht. Schöne Handhabung. Liegt gut in der Hand.

Bonjour,je possédais déjà cet article pour le sel et ce dernier sert au poivre.Souffrant de problèmes aux mains cet article est pratique mais peut être un peu gros de corps qui rend sa prise un peu plus difficile

Formschön und praktisch

Plus de poivre qui tombe partout lorsqu'on repose la poivrière !! L'appareil est élégant, disign et à l'air solide. Je recommande cet appareil-
