Stylish design and simple but effective functionality. So the product is promoted basically. I ordered these "Blender" a month ago as a pure spice mill and am (so far) fully satisfied. Suitable for fine crushing of home-grown herbs and vegetables. Also recommended for the manufacture of spice mixtures with ingredients different grain / crushing. It should be noted that the ground material is really very dry to prevent eg stay with dried Tomatoes the stumps or thick-walled parts unprocessed because the mill no cutting blade has only fly cutter without sharpness. Tip: per milling operation max. 10 seconds otherwise the mill but runs a little hot. Max. 30sec. stand in the instructions for use. But is not recommended anyway because otherwise even the ground material is hot and a lot of loses its flavor. Dear grind in several short stages. The thing finally gets everything to bits. From my side strong buy recommendation!
