Review: Worked great - Has a nice smooth interior surface in the mortar make it easy to clean out when you're done. Worked great for breaking down solids into powder as expected.
Review: great mortar and pestle - I bought this to grind up glucosamine pills to add to my dogs food. It works really well. It is beautifully made with the inside portion of the bowl (mortar) and the bottom of the pestle being unglazed for easier grinding. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a mortar and pestle to grind pills or small quantities of dry materials. I feel compelled to comment on some of the less favorable reviews of this product. This is NOT a mortar and pestle that is suitable for doing large wet jobs. It is a great size for grinding pills and other dry substances to a powder. That is what it is designed to do and it does it well. One reviewer complained about the rough surface holding onto some of the ground powder. It does do that and I GENTLY tap the inside of the bowl with the pestle to knock the powder out of the bottom of the bowl. I wash (by hand) both the mortar and the pestle to get them 100 percent clean. This is the type of mortar and pestle used in compounding pharmacies and chemistry labs. It is not necessarily the best choice for kitchen jobs. I would advise people looking for a mortar and pestle to consider what they want to be able to do with it, and then to do a bit of research to find one suited to their needs.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Crushes
*by K***S on April 24, 2018*

I bought this looking for something to crush my cat's antacid pill when he throws up and his stomach is upset. I had one like this back years ago but lost it in a move, so had to return to the drawing board to compare models. Turns out there are a ton of options to consider when looking for a mortar and pestle - size and surface, material, washability, etc. For tiny cat pills, occasionally, this was the best option for the budget. It is small and can sit unobtrusively on the countertop until I need it. It washes up quickly, and while some people complain that this will ultimately perhaps grind in some ceramic components, I doubt it will do that enough to be a health hazard. And in the meantime, I can use it to crush the occasional dried herb for cooking. Spent way too long looking at options to come back to this same model which was just fine to begin with, if I hadn't lost the original. Figures.
