" ... The grind size extremely consistent and easy to adjust. ... "
" ... After having tried less capable coffee bean grinders of the past, I decided to give this a spin largely based on the strong reviews and price point. ... I'm so glad to have this unit to provide a fresh tasting cup of coffee! ... "
" ... The grinder does a great job grinding coffee, and the selectable grind settings allow for a very wide variety of options. ... "
" ... So, so much easier. ... Never thought a coffee grinder could make life so much easier in the morning. ... "
" ... The grind size adjustment is easy and straight forward. ... "
" ... This unit is far quieter and easier to use than my previous grinder - the ground coffee container slides in and out very easily and doesn't retain ground particles, so stays remarkably clean. ... "
" ... We've only been using the Oxo burr coffee grinder for about 2 weeks, but so far we are very happy with it. ... The Oxo is definitely quieter, the bean hopper holds more coffee beans and the grind canister is much less staticy (is that a word?) ... "
" ... This one prepares freshly ground coffee for a Chemix coffee maker. ... "

" ... The grinds are always consistent and the BEST part is that you can actually pour the grounds out. ... "
" ... This isn’t a magic grinder, they will all require maintenance. ... "
" ... Nice grinder but tough to clean and always shutting off from overheating. ... Always cleaning and waiting. ... "
" ... It's also easy to clean. ... "
" ... It's very easy and quick to clean and grinds oily dark roast beans without clogging. ... The anti static metal cup for the grounds works pretty well and is far less messy than other grinders I've used. ... "
" ... This grinder is quiet and doesn’t wake the entire house, and easy to clean weekly. ... "
" ... Easy to use, Easy to clean and grinds every last bean. ... "
" ... The unit is very easy to take apart for cleaning. ... "

" ... After about 10 months it just stopped grinding. ... "
" ... Horrible - clogs after every use. ... "
" ... It is hard to know if we just have a defective item or if it is a consistent problem. ... "
" ... I bought this barely 5 month ago. ... "
" ... Issue is not the grinder itself, when it works, works great BUT after only a month it needs service and has stopped working. ... "
" ... It was severely clogged. ... "
" ... The grinder seemed to operate okayi it did not even last 8 months ... "
" ... It worked only twice. ... "

" ... This grinder is pretty quiet, it grinds consistently, and it also keeps the grounds in the stainless container. ... "
" ... I want great design and build quality. ... "
" ... Pros: No mess and a very adjustable amount of grounds. ... "
" ... So far, very durable. ... "
" ... Size is a little too high for easy storage under cabinets. ... "
" ... It is an attractive unit to sit on the counter and takes up very little room. ... "
" ... The hopper capacity is excellent. ... "
" ... What I like is the uniform results and the range of grind size. ... The storage bin holds enough beans for plenty of days worth of coffee. ... It’s not totally air tight but good enough to keep my beans fresh. ... "

" ... not too loud. ... "
" ... It's comparatively quiet. ... "
" ... Likes: quality, simplicity, acceptable noise level, narrow footprint that blends in and doesn’t take half the counter. ... "
" ... This one gives you a very consistent grind and the noise level is much lower. ... "
" ... Quiet and high quality. ... "
" ... The grounds collector cup keeps grounds IN the cup,as opposed to all over my counter top and the noise is perfectly acceptable (I'm only running it for 15-20 seconds anyway). ... "
" ... This grinder is relatively quiet. ... "
" ... The hopper is nice and big, tinted nonetheless, and the noise, while not quiet, isn’t unpleasant. ... "
Price

" ... It costs twice as much as budget options. ... I don’t see this as a negative anymore since it’s way more valuable to me than a budget model costing half the price. ... I would never buy a budget electric again. ... "
" ... Spend the money! ... "
" ... The price was right and my credit card cash back $ made it even sweeter. ... "
" ... Well worth the price, I expect to use it for years. ... "
" ... Was worth every penny ... "
" ... A very good conical grinder at a very good price!! ... "
" ... I couldn't be happier for the price. ... "
" ... Take your time, it’s worth the effort. ... "

" ... Grind size is very consistent. ... It would be cool if it would hold a pound of beans and be air tight. ... "
" ... I saw very consistent grind size. ... "
" ... The quality of the grind is much better too, the steel container is better so the grinds when emptied, don't stick to the inside. ... "
" ... This replaced another conical burr grinder, this one is much quieter than the old one and much easier to refill and holds more beans than my previous one of a different brand. ... "
" ... Fits under standard cabinets perfect so that is fine for most all people. ... "
" ... This replaced my hand held grinder and I'm never going back. ... "
" ... I would buy it again (but don't break). ... "
" ... This one fit the bill. ... "

" ... A little less expensive than some and does a great job. ... "

" ... The features all work as advertised. ... "
" ... If you remember anything from this review it should be that the anti-static feature means everything and it’s awesome. ... "
" ... It works well with so many different settings. ... "
" ... I choose this grinder over others because of its features, mainly a steel container to catch the grinds and it's a burr grinder. ... "
" ... Love the timer. ... "
" ... The feature of locking the hopper so you can take it off without emptying it is awesome!! ... "
" ... I didn't think the timer function would matter, but I really like being able to choose how many seconds to grind. ... "
" ... This has the right features, and works better than any of the others. ... "

" ... Feel it should have lasted much longer considering we used it only once per day and it was not cheap. ... "
" ... Never feels like it fits perfectly (HINT: it doesn’t need to) ... "
" ... Feels well built. ... "
" ... OXO products have never failed me, so after seeing the high reviews already on this OXO Burr Grinder I felt comfortable buying it. ... "
" ... It’s hands free in the sense of out the beans in, press the button and in about 20 seconds it’s done. ... "
" ... This replaced my hand held grinder and I'm never going back. ... "
" ... It's fully adjustable. ... "
" ... If in the other hand you have the luxury of being able to buy a more premium item it could last infinitely longer and provide you with more satisfaction. ... "

" ... The timed (1-30 seconds, I believe) grind settings allow you to adjust from course to fine. ... "
" ... You gotta experiment with the settings. ... I like the timer setting but it takes some getting use to. ... "
" ... I like that it has a regular timer for grinding vs a "number-of-cups" setting because I'm often grinding enough to last a couple days of individual pour-over, espresso shots, or reusable k-cups and not for a specific sized pot of coffee. ... "
" ... This doesn't have cup settings, it has an adjustable timer. ... "
" ... The timer is the fixed setting variety. ... "
" ... Love the timer. ... "
" ... The setting are spot on. ... "
" ... The timer and grind selector on this machine is brilliant. ... "

" ... Don’t make the mistake of getting the cheaper grinder (like I did) if you need an espresso grind. ... "
" ... I was using a silver bullet blender previously. ... "
" ... This grinds beans down to an espresso grind very well. ... "
" ... Does a great espresso grind. ... "
" ... The grinds didn't look as fine as I am used to, but the espresso was very good. ... "
" ... The OXO grinder is much better made and does a better job of grinding. ... "
" ... This grinder gives a consistent grind (once you fine-tune it to your grind preference). ... "

" ... You will spend nearly every grinding session pushing something up the hopper (such as a knife) to clear out a poorly designed shoot that clogs every 1-3 times you use this product. ... Cleaning means unplugging, dismantling, and poking something up the shoot to dislodge all the grinds caught on the way out. ... "
" ... It just got stuck in the shoot. ... "
" ... We'd clean the shoot, and it was still stuck. ... "
" ... The shoot going into the container that holds the ground coffee would get completely clogged up and nothing would come out. ... "
