Product Description

From William Bounds LTD collection comes this matte finished pepper mill. Classic in style, it features a band at the middle for easily adjusting the coarseness of the whole peppercorns contained within. A twist of the top and you'll have freshly ground pepper for your pasta, salads, soups and more. This pepper mill allows you to use 3 grinds. They are Fine, Medium, and Course. What makes William Bounds mills so unique is their milling mechanism that lets you crush rather than grind the peppercorns. In this way there is no metal-to-metal contact, prolonging the life of the mill. Only the finest materials are used with all stainless steel drive shafts..

5.0 out of 5 stars great pepper mill, January 28, 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: William Bounds 8-Inch HM pepper Mill (Kitchen)

First I bought the Wm. Bounds tapered pepper mill with the crank on the top. That one was not very good. Kind of difficult to turn the crank, very course pepper, difficult to spin the courseness regulator and the little knob at the top kept getting loose. This one is great, easy to grind, good pepper texture, no top knob movement and comfortable to hold. Would definately recommend.

If you are into stainless, you really can't go wrong with this one. The three settings work great, it cranks out a lot of pepper with each twist, it is attractive, sturdy, and easy to fill and operate. There really isn't anything else I could ask for.

Update 1/21/2009 - It broke after 2 years. If I could change my rating, I'd give it 2 stars instead of 5. I know I can't expect everything to last forever, but 2 years? I expected more from a $30 pepper mill. To its credit, it worked perfectly until it died.

This mill offers an easy and consistant grind. It has three settings of courseness, and the fine setting actually "fine", unlike some other W&B pepper mills. It's a little hard to fill because a non-removable cross section in the body, but that really my only complaint. I've only had it for a few weeks, so hopefully it continues to give a consistant grind in the future.
