Ultrassist Mortar and Pestle Set, Glass Medicine Grinder, 4oz

The mortar is quite mishapen seeming to have been left in the oven too long and unfortunately the shape inside allows powders to be missed by the pestle, along with the actual shape of the outside and top ridge to be uneven. The pestle seems to also scratch easily, or it may have had hidden scratches, as upon first use they appeared and makes it harder to get the power off of it. In any case, both of these are not really fit for purpose.

It’s just the size I needed. It’s easy to use and clean. I use it to crush my cat’s pills and as long as I don’t break it, it will last a very long time.

Ideal

Doesn't have that weird frosty / ground glass / glaze to it that other mortar and pestles have. Get this if you want to remove every last spec of material from what you are grinding

Gut

The glass of this mortar is too thin. Need to be careful when using it to avoid breaking it.
