Cuisinox Salt/Pepper or Flax Seed Mill

I was very disappointed this is a horrible product

I have read the directions twenty times, and I have tried over and over to get this to work - loosening, tightening, trying over and over again to figure out what I'm doing wrong. I bought based on positive reviews from others and am extremely disappointed. I was wanting to grind my own flax seed, but I give up. I have tried several times - over several days. It just doesn't work.

This grinder probably works well for pepper corns (?) but I bought it to use to grind flax seed, and for this purpose it is a poor choice. It takes me 5 minutes of grinding to eek out a teaspoon of flax. Too bad, because I like glass storage container.

This does not grind flax seed at all. It would be a good salt grinder I'm sure though

It does not work well at all! Very disappointing and a great waste of my money! First of all I paid for express shipping but it took me like 6 days to get it. Secondly, I bought this so I could make ground flax seeds at homes because I am on a vegan/ gluten free diet and I am not aloud to eat eggs therefore in baking I have to use freshly ground flax seeds and water as an egg substitute. I was extremely ticked off when I went to go make pancakes this past Sunday but ended up not having enough time to eat breakfast because this mill did not grind my flax seeds at all no matter what I tried.
