2.0 out of 5 stars Not all that
Maybe I'm just not that good with a mortar and pestle, but I find it difficult to crush small-seed spices with this item.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for Pills, October 14, 2008

I keep one of these in my tack room, and it's perfect for grinding up pills for critters. Just the right size, so it stays out of the way. The only problem?
