"lefties beware!"
the refiller hole comes open almost 50% of the time.. it is very annoying... and i think it's because i'm a lefty and use my left hand to turn on top.. and sometimes i grab hold of the refiller portion and it twists open.. and about 5 dollars worth of peppercorns flow on to the ground.

I want to return the darn things.. (i got the salt mill with the same problem) but being an oppressed lefty my whole life.. i'm just learning to be conscious of the refiller area.. I have no idea why they make it so accessible to refill.. I mean.. you refill maybe once a month.. but grind once a day.. why make it so delicate??!

i will say the grind is good though.. but i think the plastic doesn't have as classy of a feel as some wood or metal grinders

"Grinds perfectly and effortlessly"
The Magnum Peppermill does everything one wants a good mill to do: it grinds pepper evenly without effort and is easily adjustable to grind from course to fine. It is easy to fill and holds a hefty amount of peppercorns. I don't agree with the comments others made about peppercorns falling out of the mill. Once filled the hole is covered by a simple twist of the mill's body. The only reason I didn't give this product five stars is that it isn't very lovely to look at being made of black plastic. But for the price it can't be beat.

"The Best "
I got this grinder because it was voted the best pepper mill by Cook's Illustrated, otherwise known as America's Test Kitchen. True to review, it performed flawlessly, creating very finely ground pepper, just the way I like it. The grind size is also easily adjustable. It was easy to load as well. My only gripe is, couldn't they make a nicer looking model? Maybe something out of wood, or a material other than cheap looking plastic--especially when your paying $40 and up? Anyway, looks aren't everything. Function is whats important and in that regard the Unicorn Magnum gets 5 stars from me.

"Go ahead and splurge...you won't be sorry."
This sat in my wish list for over a year but I could never come up with that much money that didn't have to go toward something more urgent.

I have had way too many cheap pepper grinders over the years and they all worked pretty good for a few months then gradually went down hill. My wife heard me cursing the current cheap grinder just before Christmas and knew that I had talked about this one for a long time so she went ahead and bought it for me. Now I wonder how I lived without it. It not only still works great, it actually seems to work better the more I use it. The only problem I have with it is that just about everything I cook now has too much pepper in it simply because it is such a pleasure to use. Not great to look at and feels kind of cheap, but IT DOES GRIND PEPPER!

"a great pepper mill"
This is such a small pleasure. Every time I reach for it in the kitchen, it easily delivers a fantastic and abundant grind of fresh pepper. Well worth the money.
