Nutmeg Grinder
Nutmeg tastes best when it's freshly grated, and a little bit of this aromatic spice goes a long way. This tool makes it easy to grate just the right amount. Finely grates fresh nutmeg in the desired amount. Easier and safer to use than handheld graters. Razor-sharp stainless-steel rotary blades. Simple hand-crank operation. Top doubles as a storage compartment for whole nutmegs. Crafted in the USA by William Bounds, a family-owned company that has been making specialized kitchen tools of enduring quality for more than 40 years.

The grinder works great no problems. I do, like others, wish it had some sort of cap to fit on the bottom because it does leave little shavings where ever it is set.

Pros: Durable, Easy to Use, Quality
Cons: Difficult to Store, should have a cap to set it in to contain shavings

It is easier for me to use a grater than to struggle with this grinder. Great look though.

I got this grinder for myself and it is so nice that I ordered 3 more for gifts! I have nicked my knuckles for the last time and this would be so cool on the bar by the eggnog! It works very well and is well made.
Pros: Easy to Store, Design, Durable, Easy to Use, Quality, safe

This nutmeg grinder solves a problem neatly. I always had to throw away half of each nutmeg or risk grating my fingers, but now I can use almost the whole thing. It works well, looks good and is easy to clean. I'm very pleased with it, and we've been making a lot of rice puddings in the few days we've had it.
Pros: Easy to Use, Quality, Time-saver, Easy to Clean, Design, econimical

It's not a perfect grinder, but it's good enough. As other reviewers have mentioned, it's a bit difficult to close the lid after retrieving a new nutmeg from the storage container part and one has to watch that the size of nutmeg stored isn't too large. If you can deal with those drawbacks, the grinding function is quite good and beats skinning knuckles on a grater any day.
Pros: Durable
Cons: Difficult to Use

Use a grater instead!

I strongly recommend passing on this item; I deposited mine directly in the trash after waiting too long to return it.
It is very difficult to secure the top to the bottom once the nutmeg is inside, even my husband agreed.
Not a good design, like the one I remember my mom had.
I have found that a simple grater of any kind is much easier, quicker, and just as effective!

Review 10 for Nutmeg Grinder
Too Small for Actual Nutmegs
January 23, 2011
RayCanCook

Recommend: No
A toothed, spring-loaded piston holds the nutmeg tightly inside a small tube as you rotate the handle and turn the nutmeg against the cutting blade. This would be an excellent design if there were two small changes. First, the small tube needs to be about 25% larger. None of the nutmegs I bought at the store would fit inside the tube (where do they get those midget nutmegs they package in the product?). Second, the thing cannot go in the dishwasher. Taking it back for a refund.
