 Love this little pepper grinder December 3, 2008

I am very pleased with this well-designed pepper grinder. It is extremely easy to operate and the light feature is now a must-have in a pepper dispenser. How many times have you sprinkled or ground away with no idea how much pepper was actually being distributed? No longer, the down direction light that comes on when grinding is discreet and cleverly illuminates the pepper flakes for perfect seasoning. A very fine addition to a candle light dinner! The batteries (supply your own) were easy to load and the whole thing was up and running in a few seconds. There is a nicely designed dial feature to select one of six levels of coarse to very fine grind with easy to read visuals. Both the light and the grind setting dial are on the bottom of the unit, and covered in storage with a plastic cap to prevent spills. Nice touch! The design is quite handsome and fine on the table. This grinder is best used for a freshly ground salt or pepper experience with exacting individual portions on salads or the plate. For cooking applications that require a quantity in the half teaspoon and up range, you would have to grind for a little bit, so this isn't the right tool. But on the table or for small sprinklings, what a beauty!
WONDERFUL VALUE!!! So glad I kept them... September 6, 2008

You can't go wrong with these electric grinders: They come out to $15 each, when buying 4, using Amazon's 4-for-3 Promo.
I purchased 2 for salt/pepper, and NEARLY SENT THEM BACK AS DEFECTIVE.... I'M SO GLAD I STOPPED & replaced my wimpy rechargeable AA's for fresh alkaline AA's--PERFECTION!!
These grinders do a wonderful job of grinding coarse sea salt and peppercorns, while also providing lighting. I own 2 of a diff. model, which I also love, made by Cole Mason (England) expressly for Williams Sonoma, $59.99 each.
An added feature of the Orka grinder is the black plastic "bottom lid" which keeps table/counter top free of little spills. BUT try leaving the bottom on while grinding, which lets you easily monitor, in the case of salt, exactly how much you have just ground onto the black "bottom lid"--great for REDUCED SODIUM DIETS!!!
I'd go with Amazon! A set of these would make lovely, thoughtful, practical, and relatively inexpensive gifts--the cheapest electric grinders I've seen!
NOTE: The 4-for-3 promo works great when items are similarly priced.
So I got 2 of these, and 2 of: LamsonSharp 3" x 6" Chef's Slotted Turner, right-hand--my favorite all-round spatula!!

Amazon only sells the LamsonSharp "off-and-on," so it is best to wait until Amazon, not one of its sellers, has it for about $21.99....

I already have one of these grinders and came to Amazon to order another since my firsty one was a gift. I love this grinder. The grind is adjustable from very fine to course grinds and the light is the best part... you can actually see how much you are using!
 ORKA Did Not Work...Disappointing Valentines Gift March 6, 2008
Diane C. Dempsey (Tampa Bay, Florida)
I returned this item, which gave one wimpy grind then quit after being tried for the first time. It was embarrassing to give a gift that was broken out of the box. The only positive was that the return was free and easy to do - except for the 45 minutes it took to print the slips and package it back up.
