Mediocre salt and pepper grinders
Color: Upgrade Silver, Size: Rechargeable
Pros: They do work, and they are rechargeable.
Cons: the motors run really slow, capacity is low, The charging tray you have to empty frequentlyto reduce buildup underneath the salt and pepper grinders.

Excellent Pepper Grinder
Color: Upgrade Black, Size: Rechargeable
I've had several pepper grinders over the years, and none was as easy and smooth to use as this one. It fills easily, and it grinds evenly and smoothly with a gentle press of the button. I am glad there are two, just in case one does give out, I will have the other to use, as I am not interested in grinding salt. It runs so effortlessly that you have to be a little careful when picking it up that you do not accidentally engage the button before you want the pepper to come out. I love it, and came back here after using it for two months just to let you know.

Greatest Kitchen Item I've Bought in Years
Color: Upgrade Black, Size: Rechargeable
These grinders are awesome. No more tedious grinding, or endless shaking! I love the adjustable grind levels (I like mine fairly coarse), and these hold a charge for a long time - months. My friends are super impressed when they visit, and will probably be buying these too.
