Does what its supposed to, but the epitome of ‘bare bones’
Received my mortar and pestle the other day. It is as described – made of granite and heavy, however there was nothing else in the box. No instructions or info inside the box. I mean, its a big half sphere of rock and a mashing implement, so its not like it would require a novel, but others have mentioned there was supposed to be some kind of document inside the box that had some useful information and covered how to season the mortar and pestle, etc. Nothing in mine. Zilch. Nada. Nichts.More importantly, the adhesive foam bottom piece meant to keep from scratching the countertop was not included. I guess I can get some cork adhesive to stick onto the bowl itself but it was supposed to be included in the box. But having said that, it is sturdy, and it works the way its supposed to, so I’ll give it 3 stars.

Hefty Mortar & Pestle Set and Great Value Given the Quality
Being a pharmacist that is very passionate about cooking, I had to purchase this hefty mortar & pestle set. My profession has allowed me countless times of compounding drugs with a mortar & pestle.PROS: Very reasonable price for the quality.The weight & texture of a mortar & pestle will speed your crushing/grinding & pulverizing. Both weight & texture are critical for your end result as well as speed to your finished product.If you season EXACTLY as recommended, the set is a quick & easy cleanup with JUST water. No soap unless you want the taste of soap in your next meal.The weight is important as it will withstand all the stress applied during use as well as stay in place so you are not chasing it around your counter surface.CONS: NoneNOTES: As previously mentioned “season” your mortar & pestle per manufacturer instructions. The seasoning process can become boring as well as lengthy. So try these tips. Again per the manufacturer, add a handful of rice to the mortar and work until it is “white”. My interpretation is “white” means crush the rice until it is a powder before you proceed with the other seasoning steps.INHO this will speed the “rice powder” step along. With a strong grip of the pestle smash the rice into the curved edge where the side meets th e bottom of the mortar. Simply put, crush it. Stirring in a circle to work the rice will take forever. Break the rice into small pieces, then up you can begin to work the rice in a circle while concentrating your power in the corner curve of he bowl.Sorry this is lengthy, but my goal is to help you season your mortar & pestle correctly & speedily allowing you great results for the life of your set. (No I do not work for the seller or Amazon. Just a pharmacist like many others, always looking to help)

High value kitchen tool
This will allow you to smash, pulverize, powder, and macerate anything that you need. Even dried Thyme becomes a powder with just a few passes of the Pestle. Can’t believe I had not purchased this much sooner.

Seems to be good quality
I have never used a mortar and pestle before so I have nothing to compare its functionality with and I haven’t actually used it yet but it seems to be a very good quality product. Arrived just as it was described. It took just a little bit of time before it was shipped but overall it was a good transaction.

Excellent for grinding spices, peeling garlic, mashing garlic and ginger
I am very happy that I got the 4 c mortar and pestle. I got annoyed (after many years of) grinding spices in a shallow India stlye and then in a marble 1 cup mortar and pestle (with a rough interior) watching seeds fly away or resist getting crushed. This solves both problems – the rougher grinding surfaces makes short work of crushing seeds, and they can’t escape. I will also use it for pestos, salsas and guacamole. It is also very good for peeling garlic, and for mashing garlic, fresh ginger, etc. I had two worries before ordering this, both needless. I haven’t noticed any flavors, even garlic, remaining after using and rinsing well. I thought the weight could make it difficult to transfer the contents to another bowl or the mortar to the sink but it is not that heavy for me. (I have used cast iron cookware for decades.)

Used for Grinding Coffee at Home
Going through the frustrating process of shopping for a coffee grinder at home, I realized the good ones were too expensive for anybody but professional coffee shops, and the cheap ones too poor to produce good results. I started thinking to myself, why can’t I just grind them with a simple mortar and pestle? A tool that has been around since human beings formed small family groups into the first communities?It takes five minutes to grind, twist, smash, and stir whole beans down to a suitable consistency for my cheap coffee maker, but when I do, the results are amazing. Flavor with no bitterness! I’d put my coffee up against anybody’s, and I have a simple tool to thank for it. This is NOT just for guacamole. In fact, I don’t use it for guac.

Works great
It is granite so it will take awhile to dry. I’m not very good at visualizing the size so I was surprised by how big it is. I’m fine with that. It works good and I use it for herbs.

Hace que sea fácil y rápida la molición
El mortero llego en perfecto estado. Es un poco pesado pero excelente a la hora de moler. No se puede dejar caer porque se quebraría. Trajo un foami que se pega en la parte de abajo para que el mortero no se deslize. Excelente producto.

Heavy but Effective
By wife has trouble swallowing her large calcium pills. I use this morter and pestle to grind them into powder to put in her yogurt. It works great, but is heavy ( DUH, stone!) I just have to make sure I have a good grip on the base when I dump out the powder. The rubber on the base holds it firmly to the counter while using it.

Works great! Better at grinding herbs and spices than other mortar and pestle’s I’ve owned with less arm strength needed. Definitely read the instructions for priming before use. Really helps.

Beautiful set. Large mortar and very sturdy
This is one of the best mortar and pestle sets I have purchased. It has great weight and sits very well on the counter. Not sliding around when in use. The wight on the pestle is wonderful. Just enough to not be uncomfortable to use but enough to give that extra weight to crush up spices. The size of the mortar is deep and wide. Great buy

Mortar & Pestle
This mortar & pestle far exceeded my expectations! It’s big! It’s heavy & well made! It came with a self adhesive thingee for the bottom so it won’t scratch my counter & it’s really good looking. I loved that the company was thoughtful to enclose directions on seasoning it & a nice thank you card was also enclosed. I love it! Good price, too!

Heavy as heck!
Absolutely awesome, if you can afford shipping for a very heavy, solid granite mortar. Very heavy, rough interior surface on both mortar and pestle. Does not slip on the kitchen surface (because, heavy!) while using, powders/shreds ingredients in a matter of seconds (rough interior with additional “milling lines” inside). Example: a handful of white pepper corns, 3-5 turns of the pestle, good to go, better than from a pepper mill. Cleaning: a gentle rinse, most of the time. If you used oils in the mortar, you may want to use a bit of detergent, if not, just water will do the trick. Since the stone’s surface is rough, it dries quickly.Don’t drop it though–I’m not as worried about the mortar breaking (maybe I should as granite is a bit brittle) as I am about my floor tiles… I have successfully destroyed quite a few mortars in regular use (=in spec) use in my life but this here feels promisingly different.Excellent, recommended.

Feels Authentic
Really like this mortar and pestle! I’ve used it to make guacamole and to grind up seeds such as coriander, fennel and flax. It works very well, but it does take a bit of time to grind the seeds to a fine consistency. Also, please note that the mortar and pestle needs to be seasoned. Who knew? It is very well made and comes with a cushioned pad for the bottom, so it’s less likely to scratch surfaces. It is heavier than I anticipated, but the up side to that is it stays put while you’re using it! No sliding around the countertop for this big boy!

Nice!
A nice surprise. Seems sturdy and well-cut. I’ve been using it daily for grinding cinnamon, for a month. If you have not used this type of device before, it does take some practice. Start by pounding the substance with the pestle. Then swirl the pestle around the bottom of the mortar (while pressing hard) to fine grind. One might suppose that the sellers have no clue about what they are selling. Guacamole?!?
