1.One Hand Operation - Free your another hand! Not like tradtional grinders, you can add the fresh pink himalayan salt and color peppercorns when you are cooking or BBQ. 2.Gravity Function - Great for olders, children and cooking lovers. 3.When you turn it down/up, it will start/stop to grind. And there is an easy to use button to turn the whole thing off. 3.Refill - The clear glass jar can tell when to refill. 4. The stainless steel top easily screws off and the wide mouth on the jar makes that chore a breeze. 5.Electric grinders make it much easier than doing it by hand cranking!
