Decent, but a bit slow,

This review is from: Chef'n Salt Ball Salt Mill (Kitchen)
I love the taste of fresh ground salt -- it's much better than the canned alternative. I really like the Chef'n Salt Ball since I can grind salt with one hand -- really helpful when I'm adding salt to a recipe. My only gripe would be that it doesn't dispense a whole lot of salt on each grind... but that lets you easily control the amount of salt to dispense.It's a great combination with the Chef'n Pepper Ball. One word of warning: it's bigger than you may think. The ball is easily between three and four inches wide, and the handles go up a good distance -- maybe five inches. Don't think of this as the size of a normal salt shaker (the pictures make it hard to see how big it is).

Totally "upscale" and "eye-candy",

This review is from: Chef'n Salt Ball Salt Mill (Kitchen)
I use my pepper-ball and salt-ball right in my tablesetting ... my dinner-guests never fail to comment on the upscale look and convenience, so it has been "eye-candy" and adds to the drama when I serve crisp salads,etc. Part of the meal is being able to allow your guests the opportunity to season as they wish. I dunno, but I would also like to see the same design to allow diners to embellish plates in the same manner with grated cheese and also one for dessert-toppings that would add crushed pecans, walnuts, etc.

WHIMSICAL AND WORKABLE,
June 30, 2002 This review is from: Chef'n Salt Ball Salt Mill (Kitchen)
This nifty gadget allows me to grind salt with one hand as I cook. And, it's a fun addition to a dining table with its very contemporary rather whimseical design. The handles that you grip are padded thus ergonomically friendly and enable gripping without slipping. A dial selector on the base of the salt ball provides options for coarseness of grind, and it comes equipped with a refull funnel. Plus, it comes filled with salt. This is one grind I'll never mind! Thanks, Chef'n! - Gail Cooke
