Travel Salt And Pepper Grinder Set, Grind Gourmet Original Pump & Grind Salt and Pepper Push It, Spice Grinder (Clear)

In hindsight, this a nice novelty to have to carry with you. Although salt and pepper is found almost anywhere and not necessary to keep with you, I keep this in my backpackging mess kit. I usually pre-season prep food for ease but its a bourgeoisie knick knack to have =) The way it is constructed would last quite some time. Its clear to see easily how much you have. Its is a fairly thick acrylic body and its a springloaded rod rasping action that grinds the pepper and salt. Such a simple mechanism which gives it a such small form-facter and ease of use. You just depress the top plunger/button to grind it with one hand right over your food. Very user friendly. I really like this product even though I have used it so seldomly.

Have eaten out once since the lockdown ended and quickly realized that the sit down restaurant we visited no longer provides salt and pepper. Talked to several others who visited different restaurants and all said the same, no more salt and pepper shakers or grinders. Occasionally I like some extra pepper (especially fresh ground) whereas my wife usually goes for some salt once in awhile. As a 67 year old guy who has banged his hands up a bit, hyper extended both thumbs a couple of times even I can work these with no issue. My wife also has no issue with either the salt or the pepper. Bottom line is they really do work. Just got them but they appear to be very solid and fully expect to enjoy using these for a long time. Maybe even pass them on to my kids or Grandkids if they do not have their own by then,

I have gotten to really love having fresh ground pepper on my salad and fresh ground pink Himalayan salt versus table salt. This is the perfect size and easy to use. I am concerned that over time the springs will discontinue functioning, but with all the other kid items I keep in my purse/diaper bag it’s not too heavy and can refill over and over! Everyone loves it and uses it when I pull it out of it’s cool and durable travel bag... a luxury, but worth it for the tasty food I get to consume.

I think it’s hilarious that I bought this for the same reason another reviewer wrote she bought her’s; Grind Gourmet ought to thank Jordan Schlansky of the Conan O’Brien show for showcasing a similar product from when they did an episode featuring his cluttered office lol. My only two qualms with these are that the price tag is pretty hefty for such a small salt/pepper grinder and that one press of a button dispenses quite a bit of salt/pepper at once, perhaps more than you would want on your meal to go. This may be better suited for cooking away from home. Also, the finer grains of salt come out on their own if you shake the grinder, and with the grinding action the pepper corn comes out slightly more course than I expected (just don’t expect powdered. More like small grains of sand). Other than that, it feels pretty sturdy and looks better than the one with the plastic button which one reviewer claims cracked on his. That was pretty much the driving factor for me to upgrade to an all-metal grinder. Personally I would have loved this as a gift since I am trying to get into the habit of cooking my own food to take to work where I will most likely be using it. The packaging adds a lot of value to this as a gift, and I love that it comes with a fancy suede pouch, and also a stand which I did not expect to get at all. I also appreciate that they included course grains of salt and whole pepper corns, even though they came in very suspicious looking unmarked zip-lock bags people keep illicit drugs in.

I thought somehow I'd be disappointed in these, but the only niggle I have is their diameter. Because of their size and the rod down the middle, they can be more difficult to fill than you might expect. So, I guess I wish they were maybe 1/8 or 1/4 inch larger diameter. However, they're so cool and handy, I'm contemplating buying some more. I could buy more for gifts, my "go bag," etc. I might even spring extra for the set made of stainless, which I'd bet travel better. Someone mentioned the one-handed operation, and I'd agree—good for seasoning the hole in an avocado where the pit was, for example. I also like the little ditty bag they come with.

There is so much to love about this product. The name of the company for starters! And really delightful to open, with so many things I didn't realize I would receive, such as the matching stand so you can easily keep them together on your counter. I got them because I wanted something small and handy for my office, and I liked the travel bag, which by the way is made of very nice material. The packaging was impressive and I loved the note about my product that came inside. It also came with salt and pepper to get you started! Now I have spoiled almost all the surprises. This is so nice I added it to my gift list.

First of all I’m 80 and have traveled the world. I purchased another set (T-Mark) and could never get the top open w/o prying it with a knife! The unit “seemed solid” but poor function IMHO… I sent it back and paid the extra for these quality grinders! Very happy with them and the “carry pouch” is perfect for travel! I have Maldon Salt flakes in one and Divakar’s No.004 Tellicherry Whole Black Peppercorns (from The Reluctant Trading Experiment) in the other…both are the best I’ve ever experienced (which is a bunch). See pics! The ONLY negative…they don’t hold a lot…but that’s the trade off you accept to have quality S/P with a meal on the road!…you just need to have a couple of small bags of refills when your on a trip! It’s worth it to me!

These are wonderful. I bought them for traveling as many rental homes do not have reliable salt and pepper. They don’t hold a ton but work for week trip. Perfect for scrambled eggs in the morning. The one thing I wish is that the stand would also fit in the cute little canvas bag. That would make it more portable. I’m a little concerned I’m going to misplace it. But honestly they works so great, couldn’t dock a star for that. Just be aware you may need to find a different place to store the stand when traveling if you plan to bring it.

Cute set but not worth the price....wouldnt recommend

Great product! Small enough to keep in a purse with the convenient pouch and big enough to use several times before having to refill. No more long wait at the restaurant to get the water to bring the pepper mill.... And a good conversation piece too when you pull this out of your purse at the restaurant with friends!
