I love the pattern and color Of this item. Unfortunately during shipping the finish flaked off.

Grinder is beautiful but extremely hard to turn the handle!

Was shipped via Fed Ex same day as ordered. Took about three weeks to deliver, got notice, to be delivered Mon. then postponed to Tue, then Wed, then Thu, then Fri, found it in the mailbox Sat morning. Bottom part nearly fell off by itself, top was stuck firmly and I needed a rubber mallet, to get it off and get to the handle inside. Handle had a big rust mark on it, that I tried to remove with a wire brush and a polishing machine. Still left some deep pitting under the rust . Grinder is not very stable to hold, need strong hands, trying to keep it in place as the base is fairly small and does not sit on the surface stable enough. Not suitable for people with weak hands or hurting joints. The ground coffee is quite fine and very suitable for a percolator or Turkish coffee. Had to clean off remaining black polishing paste on the joints and the body. The mill is very ornamental and all in all, I would say, it would be nice on a shelf as decoration, rather than a practical machine in the kitchen. Though it works, if you are desperate, but I got other mills, that are easier and better to operate, maybe not quite as ornamental, but first of all I like to enjoy some nice coffee, then some nice equipment......

Love the faux cashmere pashminas. Too bad the description says cashmere and silk but the tag on the item says 100% polyester.
