Fantastic Mill
This mill is exactly what I have been looking for. It works flawlessly, since the screw nob on top is not used to adjust the grind size you can keep it tight so it does not move when you use the mill. The variable grind sizes provide plenty of versitility. It has a nice substantial wieght and size and grinds with little effort.

Perfection
It's amazing how much time and energy one can spend on something so seemingly inconsequential as finding a proper pepper grinder while the vast majority of those on the planet are simply hoping to put a bowl of rice on their table each day. At any rate (and deftly shoving all guilt aside), I shopped around and tested out just about every mill available and this one is perfection. The six grinding options are distinctly different allowing you to choose the grind that works best for whatever your culinary situation demands. I'll stop short of saying that this pepper mill has changed my life (just short) and will simply opine that it's the best pepper mill I've ever encountered. Worth every penny. Great wedding gift, too.

Product Description
PEUGEOT: France, since 1810. Peugeot mills are renowned by chefs and gourmet cooks the word over for the consistent grind results they produce, their incredible resilience and proven reliability. Compromise is not a word that fits into the Peugeot vocabulary. For each spice, there is one – and only one – Peugeot grinding mechanism: peppercorns; coarse dry salt; chilies; herbs and spices; wet salts; and nutmeg. Add the coffee mechanism, which started it all, and there are seven unique Peugeot mechanisms. Each is designed to derive the most flavor and greatest aroma from its complementary spice. Aesthetically pleasing, Peugeot mills deliver the height of quality, durability, reliability and innovation; making these mills the ones to which all others are compared. Chateauneuf: a Grand Cru of a mill if ever there was one. Solid and substantial, this mill is made from select French beech wood and accented with brushed stainless steel. It features Peugeot's exclusive u'Select grind adjustment system, which allows the grind to be adjusted with a simple turn of your wrist! Turn the ring at the bottom of the mill in one direction to make the grind finer; turn in the other direction to make it coarser. Once the grind size is set, it will stay in place until the user changes it. This mill is equipped with Peugeot’s legendary pepper grinding mechanism. Made of case-hardened steel, it has received additional treatment against wear and corrosion. Its double-row of helix-shaped claws grab and crack each peppercorn, before drawing it down to the teeth for the perfect grind. Mill is 9-1/2-inches tall with a black matte finish. Top to learn more
An exceptional gift for the salt or pepper connoisseur, Chateauneuf pepper and salt mills from Peugeot are traditionally styled of turned hardwood and handsomely accented with brushed, 18/10 stainless-steel bands. Also steel, the round ball nut on top of each mill unscrews the dome for filling with peppercorns and salt. Differing from other models, the Chateauneuf offers a U-Select feature, which designates six settings on the lower steel band of the pepper mill for precision grinding ranging from coarse to fine, and three settings on the salt mill. The other main difference between the salt and pepper mills lies in the grinding mechanism itself. Peugeot pepper mills use case-hardened-steel grinding heads with two sizes of grooves; the larger grooves crack the peppercorns in half and direct them into the smaller grooves, which grind them much more finely than most mills. The grinding mechanism in Peugeot salt mills is purposefully constructed with 18/10 stainless-steel, which won't corrode from prolonged contact with the salt.
Chateauneuf pepper and salt mills come in two sizes, 9 or 11-3/4 inches, and in several finishes, including matte black, matte red, and cherry. Care for a mill is easy: clean the exterior and inner chamber with a damp cloth; never immerse in water; avoid putting salt in the pepper mill, or grinding green or pink peppercorns by themselves (mixed with black is fine); and avoid damp types of salt (usually pink or gray) in the regular salt mill. Made in France, Peugeot mills are covered by a two-year replacement policy, while the grinding mechanism is covered by a lifetime warranty. Peugeot has been a leading manufacturer of pepper mills since the 1840s, and is a brand preferred by many restaurants and chefs. --Ann Bieri Top to learn more
A little slow to grind and it goes through batteries
