" ... I loved the quietness and the way the ground coffee didn't stick to the sides. ... "
" ... The product looked nice and looked very easy to clean. ... It will work nicely for someone that wants to grind coffee beans for coffee, and for some that don't need real fine ground beans for their espressos. ... We make mochas each morning and need a very full flavor from our special coffee beans, and need our grounds to be very finely ground. ... Even on the 'finest' setting this coffee bean grinder didn't make them powder fine like we prefer. ... I'm giving it a 4 star because it is a nice coffee grinder and I wish it would have worked for us. ... "
" ... Take a spoon, dip the handle of the spoon with some water, and then insert it into the coffee beans and stir. ... "
" ... I bought this as a gift, but use it myself. ... It stays setup next to the coffee pot and is ready to go anytime we want fresh coffee. ... "
" ... It's not really noisy, it's easy to clean and use. ... "
" ... It is nice machine lets you drink and taste fresh coffee every day with nice smell in your home. ... "
" ... Overall the grinder is good at grinding coffee. ... The time dial / start button feel a little flimsy but the unit as a whole is sturdy and the fit n finish is better than I expected in this price range. ... "
" ... Overall, it's easy to use and serves its purpose. ... "

" ... Great little coffee grinder. ... "
" ... This thing has one job, to grind coffee. ... "
" ... The coffee is brewed at the right temperature. ... The coffee taste better than my old expensive coffee maker and it is easy to clean. ... "
" ... Ordered a NEW coffee grinder and received one that had clearly been used. ... 1/2Tbsp of ground coffee in the container and coffee bean particulates in the hopper. ... "
" ... The best way to have an awesome cup of coffee with family and friends. ... "
" ... This coffee grinder is simple and easy enough to use. ... The 12 cup setting yields about 60 grams of coffee, making 3-4 servings. ... "
" ... I have been really happy with this grinder after about 4-5 pounds of coffee going through it. ... The hopper holds enough for around 3-5 pots of coffee and the settings seem to be right on for fine and medium coarseness. ... "
" ... It grinds coffee beans, just like it’s made to do. ... "

" ... This product makes an unbelievably terrible mess. ... "
" ... What a messy grinder, always cleaning coffee grinds from all over my counter. ... "
" ... But the static in the plastic bin makes for a huge mess. ... "
" ... Only reason this is not five stars is it is a little messy and grounds end out all over after each use. ... "
" ... The only cons to this grinder are that it is a little messy. ... It causes a mess wherever you try to pour the grounds out. ... I fther were any design options for a stainless catcher, I would certainly get that one over this one because of the static buildup. ... "
" ... After using it for about a week now, I can only give it one star because it makes such a mess. ... "

" ... It is far more durable and even grinding than anything else she has used. ... "
" ... It fits snugly, and it’s a little wide for a one-handed grip. ... "
" ... We have used a small grinder and a sealed container for the beans for years and I thought this would help eliminate the clutter. ... "

" ... (2) It is very hard to pull out the half moon shaped container from grinder body : it is too slippy and there is no place to hold tight to pull out: I needed to put Duct tape attached outside to give more frictions to hold to make it usable. ... "
" ... Holds quite a few beans for grinding. ... Even when being very careful removing bin. ... "

" ... After two uses the collection container is difficult to fit back into its spot. ... "
" ... Every now and then a piece will get stuck and jam the grinder so I have to go in and try to pull it out before it starts working again. ... "
" ... You can't empty and insert the grind chamber back until you clean off *everything* because the clearance is so tight, even a few grounds jam up the insertion. ... "
" ... Additionally, my unit's "course" lever seems to have busted as soon as I started using the unit, causing me to have to physically hold it in the "fine" position as the coffee is being ground, otherwise the lever will vibrates, hop, and quickly move to the more course setting. ... "
" ... Even though the bean hopper looks conical, the bottom is flat so the beans don't always feed into the grinder (I have to tap the hopper constantly to ensure I get the right amount of coffee). ... Finally the bin that catches the grinds is a bit difficult to remove. ... "
" ... The reason I sent it back was that the plastic tray that the grounds falls into was so hard to get out of the machine body that it required both hands and a lot of fiddling around. ... "
" ... I lost the cover to the canister that holds the grinds. ... "
" ... I have been using a Plastic knife to pry it loose. ... "

" ... The knob that sets the grind consistency broke immediately. ... "
" ... Anyway, being a tinkerer I investigated what was going on, and found a tab inside the grinder was broken. ... That was a shame, because the rest of the grinder feels pretty beefy. ... "
