coffee grinder provides up to 15 cups of
freshly ground coffee. It also has a
see-through lid that allows you to see just how
fine the grind is.

Customer Review #1
"This
grinder has performed flawlessly. I have had no
problems getting whatever grind I desire and I
have had no problems with clean up, nor do I
find this grinder to be messy. As for
longevity, well we will just have to see as it
is new. I hope we have a long and continued
happy relationship.
Update. 04/30/08 I have now had this dandy
little grinder for about 13 months and still am
very satisfied with it. I should have noted on
my original review that I don't make espresso
at home. At that time I used a drip and a
percolator and the grinder did very well for
both. I now have a french press and it works
fine for that also. I am very well satisfied.
However folks keep telling me to get a burr
grinder, that especially with a french press I
will really note a difference in the coffee. I
am not sure I want to spend so much money on
something that really doesn't make all that
much difference especially since I have been so
pleased with this particular product."

"I think it does a
good job, not too loud, big enough for a 12cup
amount of coffee, only thing is the bottom
always gets about 2tablespoons of coffee stuck
to the bottom, so it has to be brushed out
everytime."

"This is the
best inexpensive grinder I have ever used. With
an occasional shake while grinding it will
produce a very even grind. When emptying, it
releases the ground coffee with a gentle
tap."

"I am finding that it takes
much longer to grind coffee w/ this grinder than with my old
Krups. The capacity is larger but taxes the ability of the
grinder. Does great for French Press coffee!"

Customer Review #5
"I bought the chrome
version of this machine about a month ago and my experiences
with it are excellent. The machine stays cool, grinds about 1/2
pound of coffee beans at a time, and the results are
consistently good. It is a neat device, with the cord wrapping
around the machine for easy storage. Cleaning requires a small
brush so that grinds do not stay at the bottom, and they come
right out. I could not be happier with this purchase, but then
again, I use it only for what it was made to do, grind
beans!"
