Product Description
This innovative stainless steel design allows for convenient one-handed operation. Now you can add freshly ground salt to any dish with the simple press of a thumb!
Amazon.com Review
Vic Firth's elegant stainless-steel Pump and Grind salt mill works with just one hand. A large button on the top of the mill is pushed with the thumb to operate the grinding mechanism, making the mill a snap to grab in order to salt a dish while stirring with the other hand. Producing freshly ground salt ranging from coarse to fine, the grinding mechanism works effortlessly and removes for easy cleaning. Six inches tall and quite slim, the Pump and Grind features a patented viewing window for distinguishing the salt mill from its matching pepper mill counterpart, and for viewing the level of salt crystals in order to prevent a shortage at a crucial moment. Vic Firth salt mills are fitted with nylon mechanisms, while those on the pepper mills are stainless-steel. Vic Firth backs the long-lasting mill with a lifetime guarantee. --Ann Bieri

 Best Salt Grinder Ever November 16, 2008
D. Fernandez (FL, USA)
I've being using this product for more than a year.
It is easy to use. It's good for humid places and specially boats.
PROS
1) Maintain the salt free of humidity
2) The salt is grinded into a cloud of tiny grains. The grains are grinded into smallest size than commercial grinded salt. Looks like salt powder.
3) The acrylic tube let's you know when to refill.
4) The size is perfect for daily use at home.
5) In contrast with battery operated grinder, it's always ready to use, the salt is grinder into powder not large grains, and it's free of moist.
6) The small grains of salt (powder released) is more pleasantly and rapidly dissolve in the mouth compared to others salt grinders and standard salt.
7) The salt is released with consistence (quantity and grain size) with every push.
8) It's easy to use for adults with just one hand. Good for occasional used at the kitchen or daily use at the table.
CONS
1) The grinder might be difficult to push by toddlers (which is good in a way since it helps to make them use less salt).
2) After several times of falling to the floor (more than ten times in my case), might broke at the acrylic part.
3) The amount of salt storage might be consumed fast by a chef or if you used more than 100 grams daily (3.5 Ounces).
4) The grinder might stop working if you wet the base by accident. If so, replace the humid salt and it will keep working like new.
PS: I bought booth the salt and pepper grinder. Both are the same in size and parts. In fact I ended up using the pepper grinder for salt too and it works perfect.
Strong and good looking October 30, 2008
Jeanette L. Bettles (New York)
Impressively constructed, very good looking and sits well in your hand. We have two as salt and pepper on our kitchen table. They fit the contemporary look.
Wonderful salt mill October 9, 2008
N. Male (Hawaii)
Yes, it is small, only six inches high, and works like a charm. I have gone thru several one handed mills from different companies. I also live in an area of high humidity. The other brands have cracked and/or rusted, and the salt flow eventually diminish to almost nothing. The Vic Firth (after 3 weeks) is still easy to use and delivers an adequate amount of salt. I'm really impressed.
I like it! May 17, 2008
D. Cobb
I have this and the pepper grinder and like both. Actually the salt one puts out much more salt per push, but either way they work well, look nice and have a good weight / feel to them. They are small enough to slip into your pocket or take with you. Neat little invention!
 Grinds Too Well... Lots of Salt - Have to start sideways April 24, 2008
Blair (West Hollyweird, CA USA)
1. I have the pepper version so decided to get the salt version.
2. Although adjustable for salt size (no instructions) you just change how screwed on the base is. So you have to figure out this part.
3. One pump puts out a lot of salt...I mean a lot...so often grind into my hand and then use that to measure out my salt
4. Doesn't grind from a straight up and down position. You have to pretty much hold it at a 45 degree angle to start the first grind (salt too hard for start-up) and then you can angle it downwards more from then on...but remember...lots of salt comes out, so maybe don't need to grind much more.
5. Mine came with 'WEBER GRILL' and a logo printed on the side of it. This obviously was from a promotion that they had too many of and decided to throw it into the mix. Wasn't worth sending it back, gonna use rubbing alcohol and steel wool to see if I can get that off.
