this device is incredible. it takes little to no effort to crush the pill, simply place it in the bottom and twist & it will crush it into a fine, even powder. It’s perfect & easy to use! 5/5 def need if you have any accessibility issues or arthritis.

Great price and sooo easy to use! You simply twist it, so easy and in no time at all you have a perfect powder. I was crushing the pills with a spoon before and I got this for convenience and I’m so glad that I did. Great product. Happy with my purchase and would recommend.

Been a life saver for grinding up my cats large pill. I used to use a spoon, but the pill would fly out and get everywhere. This makes it so quick and easy

I used the small crusher for a few months, & it was pretty great. It does require a decent amount of force, & I’d have to untwist & recrush about 5 times to get it all the way down to pure powder. Still much easier than using a mortar, & I was happy with it. But I recently left it behind on vacation, & had to buy a new one. This time got a large version from a box store, & it’s wayyyy easier to twist, & it crushed to powder in 1-2 twists. So if you’re looking for ease of use, the larger one is def the way to go. I will reorder the smaller one to use for travel though.

I'll start off by saying that this isn't a "new" product for me, exactly. Rather, it's just me buying the smaller version of a larger unit which I've been using, happily, for years.My wife and I own pets, and over the years, several of these pets have needed to receive medicine at times. Now, giving cats, in particular, medicine is... challenging, at best. ("Impossible" at worst!)My wife is able to stick a pill down a cat's throat using her finger, but I can't make myself do that... call it a phobia if you like, but the idea of harming the animal sort of freaks me out.Using "Pill pockets" or other "food wraps" is pretty effective... until the first time that the cat bites down and discovers what's inside. After that, using "pill pockets" becomes essentially impossible. So, I'll use that approach if I can, but often can't.SO... the last trick, which works nicely when the pill involved isn't TOO nasty-tasting, is this: crushing it and mixing it into food. Usually a pretty fragrant food, which they're really fond of, works best. This WON'T work for particularly terrible-tasting pills, but for most, it works pretty well.And the larger version of this has been what I've been using to do my pill-crushing for about fifteen years now. The only complaint I ever had with this was that the compartment seemed too large for the volume of crushed pill powder I was left with once done.Well, I'm going to be away for a while, and I'm taking my two furrballs with me (while the others will stay with her), and I needed my own copy for this period. I was assuming I'd just get the same one, but was pleasantly surprised to find that there's a smaller version as well.The smaller version is far better suited to the amount of medication you'll usually give to pets, or to small children. The larger one is best suited, honestly, to "adult-sized" doses, in my opinion.It's trivially easy to use. Drop the pill(s) into the compartment, and screw the top section in. I'll usually screw and unscrew the last portion several times to ensure that I get the pill fully crushed. I then simply remove the top (tapping it on the side of the crushing compartment if there's any residual pill powder on the "core" of it), and then just dump the contents of the crushing compartment over the food (again, tapping it if necessary to get as much out as possible.If you're using the same medicine every time, there's no real need to wash it every time, but if you're doing multiple types of medications using one crusher, you'll likely want to wash it off every time. That's easy... dishwashing soap and a nice hand washing works perfectly, along with air drying (I doubt it's "dishwasher safe," however, so don't try that!)It's a very simple design... not many chances for things to go wrong... but it works very, very well. It reminds me of my own childhood, with my mom crushing stuff with a spoon to give to the kids. This is much, much better.If you have a need to do what this does... you're not going to find many better options.

My dog started eating around his heart medication pill, so I bought this. Now it gets crushed & sprinkled on top of his food & he's none the wiser.

The pills I need to crush are large and strong. To hide the pills in my dog meals the pills must be reduced to fine dust. After 6 or 7 cycles I can crush the pills to a fine powder however even more fine would be much preferred. If the pill pieces are sand size my dog will detect it and refuse.I'll go back to my original method. Fold a paper in quarters. Smash with medium size soft face hammer until pill is a fine dust. At least the pill crusher is quieter method.Cream Cheese is a wonderful way to hide dog pills, unlike gravy it does not pick up the taste of the pill. However if a pill upsets my dogs tummy he will quit taking even cream cheese.Alleluia is a 130# black lab and quite clever. A dog half his size I can force a pill. He has a head larger than a volley ball and one might force him to take a pill one or twice but not every morning.UPDATE: This morning Alleluia started his thyroid pills which are small and not super firm. On those this pill crusher does a fine job, so you results achieve are dependent on the pills you need to crush.

Was surprised how ceasing this worked l. Crushes hard pills easily, little effort. Excellent for crushing large pills that are difficult to swallow.
