which end does the ground salt come out? top or bottom?

The top once you flip it. It works well as you can produce salt with as little as a quarter turn or a full turn depending on how much you need. Turns easily.

Top end. The bottom end you turn to grind the salt. There is also a cap on the bottom that twists off to load more salt in.

The salt comes out of the top. If you store the salt container bottom side up, salt will leak out onto the counter top.

This customer is beyond help. Maybe the instructions should be printed on the bottom?

Really, either top or bottom works just fine. I usually put the in on the top and pull them from the bottom.

The lid pulls off, then remove clear plastic cover. The bottom also pulls off so it can be used as a funnel to fill the salt and pepper sides.

It sprinkles out from the top when you shake it, just like a standard salt shaker.

It is not fine grained, but not coarse grained, it doesn't need to be ground, it will go through a salt shaker.

Fill the salt shaker at the bottom with a stopper. Width at the bottom is about 2 in. Stopper width is about 1 in.

Hollow. You insert the salt from the bottom where there is a hole with a stopper.

Holding the grinder upright, Firmly pull the top straight up. I do this over a sink in case some spill out.

After calling customer service at Truudeau for help I was told that the salt that comes in the shaker causes the two elements to stick together. It was suggested that I use dental flow and run it around the slight opening between the top and bottom. I did this and it cleared the salt residue and now I have no problem getting the two parts apart.

I think it's just hollow. The one I have, which is not this brand, has a bottom piece with holes that the salt sits on and the air is breathed in through the mouth piece which causes it to flow through the bottom holes over the salt and into your lungs. The inside is hollow, but holds the salt crystals. This is a very effective alternative to a salt room or salt cave, where you are breathing in salt air, unfiltered, just like ocean air. Very healthy. I've bought 2 of these as gifts.

No, you turn the top one direction for salt and the other direction for pepper. At first we didn't realize that we need to remove the bottom piece or else all of the ground salt and/or pepper just gets trapped in it. It is actually the funnel to use when refilling the salt and pepper and it is just stored on the unit as the base.

i haven't used up the salt that came with it, so i don't know. Sorry i couldn't help!

The bottom sections holds more than the middle or top. I use sea salt in the bottom, a sea salt blend in the middle and a tuscan blend in the top which contains garlic. I have not noticed the garlic smell coming through.

The ground is the bottom. We filled it with compost (no liner) and had great luck last summer. I was surprised to read the earlier negative response, since we love ours. I don't think they look cheap at all. We bought 3 for our house and my mother-in-law liked them so much that I bought another for her. Easy to put together. Ours are on a slight slope, so my husband added wood to a couple sides on the bottom to make them level.

No! And the salt gets clogged really easy! You have to bang on it pretty good to get it clear. Hope this helps

If right handed, grasp the top holding the salt and grasp the bottom holding the pepper. Hold as upright as possible and pull to separate. The part holding the salt will come off revealing an opening to replace the peppercorns. separate the two sections carefully or you will have to sweep up peppercorns from the floor.

That is not the one I own, but you probably just have to unscrew the top for the salt and the bottom for the pepper.
