Customer Review #1 "I
too read all the reviews... I spent several
hours, so let me save you the trouble. This
item is sturdy, washable, compact, and grinds
beans for anywhere from 4-12 cups of
coffee.
I use it for both my 2 cup french press and my
percolator, when my mill & brew coffee
maker, which I have two carafs and 3 baskets
for, is busy. We really get into coffee here -
I must have 10 varieties of beans in the
freezer.
It also did a fabulous job grinding hazelnuts
very fine for a cookie dough where the
hazelnuts were, in effect, part of the
flour.
I do love that the grinder basket and top can
go in the dishwasher, and the little brush that
is stowed on the back is a thoughtful and
utilized addition.
The only drawback would be that if you are only
making 2 cups of coffee and you want a course
grind, you have to let the machine think you're
making 8 cups, by moving the cup setting, as
this machine is intended to grind beans for a
minimum of 4 cups. When I make enough coffee
for my percolator, I can get an intermediate
course grind with no problem.
What sold me was this: After I read all the
reviews I went to my local "megamart," found
the grinders, opened up the boxes of the makes
I wanted to compare, and I literally took
things apart and put them back together.
Like another reviewer warned, stay away from
those other grinders with the tiny (you can
barely see them) plastic pins that engage the
start button. Once those bits of plastic break
off, you're SOL.
This is a very reasonably priced maker which
I've had for 6 months. I love it so much, that
for much of that time I've felt just a bit
guilty that I hadn't yet praised this maker on
Amazon. With that done - it's time to grind
some beans. :) Enjoy.
PS: It looks very pretty/handsome on the
counter."

Customer Review #2 "This coffee grinder
made great coffee...for a while. After two
years, it started acting up and now does not
work at all. Quite a shock the day I went to
make my coffee and couldn't! Ended up using my
food processor for my beans that
day...yech."

Customer Review #3 "This is an
update (January 8th, 2008) of my former review.
Initially, I found this little grinder quite
something: it worked well, didn't cost very
much money, and was a very satisfactory
purchase. Unfortunately, over time, my
enthusiasm has ..."

Customer Review #4 "Nice features, especially the
removable cup, though a bit too many settings for a simple
grind. Sadly, two of these grinders stopped operating after a
month or so of once-daily use. They became too hot to touch
after plugging in."

Customer Review #5 "I searched online
for a good coffee bean grinder. After I read reviews on various
brands, I decided to go to Target and check out this Hamilton
Beach 80365 Coffee Grinder. They had several different brands,
but this one stood out. I purchased this grinder and could not
be more pleased. I like my grounds fine so I selected the
Expresso Grind and boy was I surprised. This unit grinds great,
it is easy to clean out all the coffee grounds out with a brush
and I like the fact that the unit where the grounds are can be
detached from the base to pour your grinds into your filter,I
also like that the cap has to be locked to grind, and coffee
grounds do not get in around the lid. You just have to clean
the grounds from the inside at the top. If and when this unit
gives out, I will buy another Hamilton Beach Coffee Grinder. To
put the icing on the cake, the hands free grinding timer is a
great asset. That was my main reason for purchasing the unit,
but I tell you that I am very pleased and happy with this
grinder. I would recommend this unit to anyone who likes fresh
ground coffee. Happy in PA "
