This review is from: Vic Firth Mario 12-Inch Peppermill, Cherry (Kitchen)

My wife got me this peppermill for Christmas. I am very pleased with it for three reasons. It has a much larger storage capacity (and wider opening) than our last mill. This means I don't have to fill it nearly as often as I used to and I don't spill nearly as many peppercorns on the countertop. There's still some hoppers, but that's my clumsy fault more than anything. Also, I really like the locking grind adjustment. You can set it from very coarse to powder fine and it doesn't budge over time. Finally, as someone who is in the solid cherry furniture making business, I appreciate the beauty of the wood. Cherry is a hallmark of quality and this peppermill is no exception. The fact that it was Made in the USA was a big added bonus for me as well.

This is the BEST peppermill ever! Finally, a peppermill that lasts. I bought my first one well over a year ago and I am happy to report that it is by far the best peppermill I have ever owned. Before finding this product, I had gone through several peppermills, presumably all top of the line (what a joke!) Vic Firth's peppermills are the real deal. The grinding mechanism is superb and it gives me a perfect consistency each and every time; from fine grinds for fish, to medium grinds for gravies or coarse grinds for meats. The mill is easy to clean too with just a few simple steps. Sure, these are some pricey peppermills but you definitely get what you pay for. This will be the last peppermill you will ever use. This is a handcrafted product of excellent craftsmanship, which will complement your kitchen décor and table setting. I love these peppermills so much I have 2 (one in my kitchen and one at my dinner table) and I also have the salt mill too!
