Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of HIC Porcelain Set of 3 Mortar and Pestle White
Customer Review: A 5 star but w/ codicils - EXCELLENT gift. Pill grinding too!
Summary: 5 Stars
The codicil is that my medium pestle had flaws in the grinding edge (IMHO, bacteria niches. But with careful cleaning, maybe not?) and a flaw in the ceramic glazing on the upper part. I attacked the flaw on the grinding end (it's porous & soft) with sandpaper. I have zero idea if that's "pukka" but it makes sense to me (after all, what is a mortar & pestle othen than grinding & sanding?).
HOWEVER, for the price, it's a wonderful set. It would make a great work exchange, house-warming, shower, small occasion or Xmas gift. I think if you removed it from the box and creatively packed it, it would look like a MUCH more expensive item (and if you wash it, the "Made in China" sticker will be removed from the bottom).
The smallest size is FANTASTIC for grinding pills (pets or people).
I *so* recommend this item that I just bought several for my "gift supply". I'm going to open them to check quality (will do switcheroo if necessary...maybe I was unlucky?)
