We bought a set a couple of months ago. The grinders are so pretty, we leave them out on the table all the time. We have received many compliments on the grinders. They are pretty big, hold a lot of salt/pepper that you don't have to refill constantly. They clean really well with a sponge and paper towel. Nice to touch, they are not slippery even if operated with wet hands. And they are easy enough to operate by a 5 year old who had issues with other grinders. Love this product.
