It is a bit big but it's super ... *by C***E on November 15, 2015* I bought this as a birthday gift back in the summer. We've had this for about 5 months now and it's just been great. It is a bit big but it's super useful for grinding mustard seeds or really anything you need. It is made out of stone so it is heavy. You could definitely do some damage to it if you dropped it on the floor. The outside and the handle of the pestle is glossed so it's very comfortable when you have to grind aggressively. The inside of the mortar and tip of the pestle are rough which allows for easier grinding. The bottom of the mortar is also a bit rough which prevents it from slipping and sliding on the counter top. That being said, it's not so rough as to damage the counter. If you have a budding chef in your household, then I think this makes the perfect Christmas or birthday (or anytime) gift. ### ⭐⭐ This is coated in something - the bottom half inch ... *by R***S on May 25, 2016* This is coated in something - the bottom half inch all the way around did not have the coating - so it is almost white and gritty to the touch (flakes off). ### ⭐⭐⭐ This is NOT a molcajete. Quite attractive but very limited usefullness, particularly if you want to make Mexican salsa *by L***M on April 10, 2017* This would be a very attractive addition to our kitchen counter but, alas, it doesn't do the job I had intended for it. I was hoping for a mortar and pestle that I could use to make various salsas the way I've seen them made in Mexico. But the bowl on this one is way to smooth for that. Ingredients, particularly wet ingredients, just slip and slide around as you try to maneuver them under the pestle. Yes, you could make a guacamole but so many salsas require grinding of peppers and crushing of garlic, tomatillos, chiles, onions, etc -- including when the bowl is holding a fair amount of liquid. But that's virtually impossible with this product because of the way things slip around. I worked really hard and spent a lot of time trying to make this one work but it took far more effort than is required with a true volcanic rock molcajete as used in Mexico and which I should have purchased in the first place. My mistake. After having this unfortunate experience, including paying to return a very, very heavy item, I went back and read all the positive reviews that I read before making this purchase. I see that most people aren't using it for the purposes I have in mind. Yes, you can definitely crush cloves and other hard spices into a powder with this, no problem, and you can smash up some avocados for guacamole. But this mortar and pestle does not do the job of a true molcajete. (I eventually bought a volcanic rock molcajete from Crate & Barrel.) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/9321529-super-strong-granite-black-stone-mortar-and-pestle-8-in](https://www.desertcart.us/products/9321529-super-strong-granite-black-stone-mortar-and-pestle-8-in) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-05-16*
