I prefer a pepper mill with a crank, much easier... I suppose yoose
gals are more adept with those mills where you twist the head.

Even the old style Penzeys pepper mill is kind of chintzy, that
plastic retaining ring falls out occasionally.

If I'm going to spend that much on a pepper mill I may as well go all
the way and get the best.... nothing bests the Turkish/Greek style
coffee mills for grinding peppercorns... a few cranks and spates of
pepper comes gushing out in spurts.
