This mill certainly looks good but does not work in humid environments. Contacting the distributor for help is a waste of time.

I've used many grinders over the years, and these take the cake. The pepper grinder will make your pepper as coarse as you like it. The salt mill is equally well built and designed, but you have to grind a lot of salt to get your food to taste. For the pair I give five stars.

I cannot figure out how to get a coarse grind. At the price I paid, It should have various grinds. The directions for use are almost non-existant. Live and learn!

My parents have had a really wonderful pepper mill for almost 40 years and when I went to find a similar one I couldn't, but I found that the grinding mechanism was a Peugeot, so I went for this salt grinder and its matching mill. I haven't been disappointed at all; they look great and are very reliable. They have a nice clean modern aesthetic, but are easy to use (I have not found the mills hard to control for coarseness at all, you can tighten or loosen the screw that holds the top on to adjust the grind). The salt does need to be fairly course to begin with, but I don't think that any real salt mills work with Kosher salt. I use it all the time in the kitchen and on the table so much that I can hardly remember life without it.

This mill is high quality. It is going strong after two years. Filling it can be messy.

Freshly ground salt has such a nice flavor. And this grinder is designed specifically for salt. I didn't need a pepper grinder so it was nice to have a rather neutral color and design to "match" my pepper grinder. I also find this grinder very satisfying in use -- I enjoy the feel of the grinding and the way it fits in my hand.

It's a simple device that works well, it well made and does a good jab at grinding all kinds of salt. Fits in your hand well and has very nice craftsmanship.

I concur with other low ratings; it's beautiful but it doesn't function. Could not get a coarse grind, and even in a not-so-humid environment, salt crystals seem to jam and not grind. Exchanged mine for another brand.

Described & sold as "New", the Peugeot 6-inch Fidji "Wild Cherry" Salt Mill arrived promptly & securely packaged. Missing an original "New" box, wrappings, or papers it did have an authentic hang tag on the knob but used salt still rattled around inside. The mechanism works fine & the exterior appearance is good, but not "New".

THE PRODUCT WE RECEIVED WAS NOT AS ADVERTISED. WE ORDERED A SALT MILL AND RECEIVED A PEPPER MILL. THE QUALITY OF THE PRODUCT AS A PEPPER MILL WAS FANTASTIC, I KNOW THIS BECAUSE WE ALREADY HAD ONE, WE WERE JUST LOOKING FOR ITS MATE.
