OXO Salt and Pepper Shaker Set, Clear, Stainless Steel

We had a set of these shake and pour shakers from OXO that we purchased years ago and did great for us. You have to sometimes remember that you have the pour spout open, which seems to be hard for some of my kids :).When one took a tumble and broke, we finally had to replace them, and I went right back to OXO because it's a dependable brand and a high quality item. The design is slightly different than the past one but it looks great. Easy to clean, never rusted, and is the perfect size for regular use. Having the pour spout lets me use it for cooking if I need to, but I generally just pour directly from the salt container now. It's still a nice feature to have. All in all a great salt and pepper shaker set.

After looking for the salt and pepper shakers, I found these. A perfect size for what I needed. They give out enough salt and pepper and allow for extra to be poured with the side spout. Love them.

QGood quality, for the price it is worth it, buy and enjoy!

The salt shakers always end up spilling around the rim when you refill. They really need a gasket to keep tiny bits of salt from getting inbetwen the threads. Otherwise, ok.

Not sure why I’m so excited about salt & pepper shakers, but hey-what can I say? These seem a little taller than many, and they have a great modern shape. The game changer for me is the little door thing on the side. Super easy to open and close it. Most people are salt people…and for those people-the shaker flows well. I’m all about the pepper though. At restaurants, I end up unscrewing the lid to pour pepper on my food. That little trap door on the side ROCKS! Now if you’re a person who loves to cook, what could be better than having a set of these by the stove to toss in pinches of salt and pepper? I’m sure that’s what these were designed for. They’re great-don’t even think about it-just buy them already!

Love these. They are easy to clean, attractive, and practical. Use them every day.

Lots of my recipes recommend Diamond Crystal salt and it only comes in big boxes. So I needed a shaker. Typically I use rock salt crystals which I grind, but I don't need to grind Diamond. Crystal. I do find that the holes could be bigger in the salt shaker so I tend to use the spout in recipes, and grind salt if I'm adding it to prepared meals. I use a peppermill so don't use the pepper shaker at all. Maybe I might use that as a salt shaker cuz it has more holes.

Not alot to say about a salt shaker, but I like the fact it is clear and I can see the salt level, and I do like the little pour spout, which precludes having to get out the large container if you need a teaspoon or two for a cooking recipe. Not the cheapest or fanciest one you can find, but this is the second one I've bought (accidently melted the first :-), so I guess that says it all.
