Amazon.com Review
More fun than a traditional salt shaker, the Chef'n Salt Ball comes filled and lets you grind fresh salt onto your meal with a one-handed squeeze. Its round body holds about 5 ounces of sea salt and is constructed of clear, durable plastic so you can see when you're running out. Two ergonomically designed grips poke out of the top of the ball, allowing you to simply grab and squeeze to season (four squeezes produce about 1/8 teaspoon). There's a dial at the base for adjusting the grind from fine to coarse, and a hatch door on the side of the ball's body for refilling. This great invention makes cooking much more convenient--you can easily stir your slow-cooking tomato sauce with one hand and salt with the other. --Cristina Vaamonde

 Totally "upscale" and "eye-candy" September 8, 2002
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I use my pepper-ball and salt-ball right in my tablesetting ... my dinner-guests never fail to comment on the upscale look and convenience, so it has been "eye-candy" and adds to the drama when I serve crisp salads,etc. Part of the meal is being able to allow your guests the opportunity to season as they wish. I dunno, but I would also like to see the same design to allow diners to embellish plates in the same manner with grated cheese and also one for dessert-toppings that would add crushed pecans, walnuts, etc.

WHIMSICAL AND WORKABLE July 1, 2002

This nifty gadget allows me to grind salt with one hand as I cook. And, it's a fun addition to a dining table with its very contemporary rather whimseical design. The handles that you grip are padded thus ergonomically friendly and enable gripping without slipping. A dial selector on the base of the salt ball provides options for coarseness of grind, and it comes equipped with a refull funnel. Plus, it comes filled with salt. This is one grind I'll never mind! Thanks, Chef'n! - Gail Cooke
 Very Slow... August 12, 2001

This salt mill fell way below my expectations and needs. It was almost impossible to mill the salt finely. The salt would clog up and require us to hit the mill against our hands to resume the grinding. I accidently dropped it into my food when milling and could not clean it out at all because the food seeped up inside the mill and there is no way to take it apart and clean it.
Maybe a bit slow, but......... March 25, 2001
Sometimes I wish it would grind more salt at a faster rate, but I have an easier time of controling the amount of salt. Sea salt is so much better than the container salt. I bought it just for cooking, but we use it at the table, too. I also thought it was a great price.
