Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of iTouchless Automatic Stainless Steel Pepper Mill and Salt Grinder (2 Pack)
Customer Review: Great Value for the price
Summary: 4 Stars
I bought these grinders for my mother-in-law over a year ago as a Christmas present. She loves to cook, but is dealing with arthritis in her hands. These grinders were a huge help to her. The first one did recently break, but only after a year of HARD use. 3 meals a day, and lots of time cooking the plastic casing on the pepper mill broke. For the price though I could replace them every year or two and still come out ahead of the more expensive brands. The motor is strong enough to crush pepper and various salts to a fine powder. They look even nicer in person. You wouldn't guess they were the economy choice for grinders. Nice stainless steel finish and a hefty feel in the hand.Customer Review: Not bad for the price
Summary: 4 Stars
I felt getting these would really help when cooking meats and fish. One hand was need to flip the meat and the other for seasoning.
PROS:
- Look nice
- Work well
- Price
CONS:
- That little window is all the space to fit pepper/salt. The instructions say to only fill 80% too. I'd think some more space could be used in the handle.
- You better get a funnel to fill it up. There is just a little hole under the top compartment.
- The grinder has trouble with salt rocks. Seems its not strong enough to grind them well.
OTHER:
- They take 4AA batteries each.
Customer Review: Very Satisfied!

I bought this pair of electric salt-n-pepper mills about 5 months ago because they were more reasonably priced than the William Sanoma brand. So far so good. They work fine under almost daily use. I haven't even had to replace the batteries (yet). But they are a little more over-sized & bulky than I wanted & there is no light at the bottom (like the William Sanoma ones). I gave them 4 stars instead of 5 because of the size of the actual mills... a little too big for my taste. Overall, I am very pleased. Would reccomend for the price for sure!!!Customer Review: Good mills
Summary: 4 Stars
These mills are not as good mechanically as my previous ones by "La Bella Vita". The grind adjustment mechanism is cheaply made. It's simply a nut on a shaft that does not hold tension on the grinding mechanism as you adjust it. The only better thing about them is they are stainless steel instead of a rubberized coating that wears away. So far they seem to operate pretty much the same but don't feel as sturdy as my previous set. If you're willing to put up with "adjustment nut", these mills seem to be a good buy. No problems yet.Customer Review: iTouchless Automatic SS Pepper Mill & Salt Grinder
Summary: 4 Stars
PROs. I received both units in excellent condition and when promised. The units were easy to set up and fill with pepper and salt. They worked as advertised and are a conversation piece at the dinner table. The light underneath the unit adds to the dispensing of the material.
CONs. Instructions to adjust the amount of material to be ground was not clear. Following what appeared to be the only adjustment did not make any visible changes.
