Easy

Does a great job! Grind coffee. Is a bit loud but that is ok, just grind the night before!

Some very good features; some very annoying ones

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Pros: 1. It doesn't overheat and shut down, or need "rest periods." 2. It's fast. 3. It does a truly very good job of grinding beans to fine powder. 4. It's easy to clean. Cons: 1. You can't walk away from it for a minute, because every 15 seconds or so it just stops pulling beans into the grinding chamber. I stand at the unit and swirl the beans around nonstop to keep the unit functioning. Makes it mighty hard to get anything else done. 2. It's jet-engine loud, which is bad on its own but all the worse since you have to stand over the unit and continually feed beans into the grinding chamber. 3. While I don't know whether the number selection for grind size (coarse, fine, etc.) is beneficial or accurate, the selection for number of cups has no effect at all.

Hubby Now Loves Being The Official Bean Grinder

My husband and I both love this coffee bean grinder. I finally had enough of the daily task of grinding small amounts of beans at a time. We go through a lot of coffee and it was frustrating to open my canister of ground coffee when I wanted to make a pot or set it up the night before to auto-brew in the morning, only to find it empty! This grinder is fast, efficient and I can grind larger quantities at a time. In fact, I rarely have to grind beans at all now because my husband treats it like a new toy and loves being the bean grinder, haha!

Grinder

Beans don’t flow into the grinder without encouragement, I.e., slap the side during grinding or you will wind up grinding air. Other than that it’s great.

Great features

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Bought a month ago, works well. Quieter than expected. I like the separate grind size setting and number of cups setting. So far it actually is anti-statice.

Looked good in store at least

Just received the unit. Unpacked it, followed directions setting it up, put 1/4 pound of beans in, plugged it in, and the blue light came on. Set the grind and the number of cups, and pressed the start. Guess what? NOTHING HAPPENED. At this point, it is nothing more than a paper weight and ugly one at that.

Thank you for your feedback — we’re sorry to hear the unit did not operate as expected right out of the box. For initial setup, please ensure the lid and grind chamber are properly locked into place, as the safety interlock will prevent the grinder from starting if components are not fully seated. Our Consumer Assistance Center would be happy to help troubleshoot or arrange support at 1-800-726-0190. Please reference Ticket #8900519662 when you call so we can assist you promptly.

Underwhelming

The grinding port tends to leak a noticeable amount of grounds onto the counter each time it’s used, and the interior chamber builds up residue quickly, causing frequent jams. Even after carefully cleaning it according to the instructions, the jamming persists and the grinder often stops working properly. I’ve only used it a few times so far, but these issues have made it frustrating to rely on. While I appreciate the thoughtful gift, this particular model hasn’t lived up to expectations for me in terms of reliability and mess-free operation.

Thank you for sharing your detailed feedback. We’re sorry to hear about the grounds spilling, residue buildup, and jamming issues—it’s understandable that these challenges have made using the grinder frustrating. To help prevent jams, please ensure the grinder is fully assembled, the grinding chamber is cleaned thoroughly after each use, and only the recommended amount of beans is used at a time. This product is backed by a limited warranty, and our Consumer Service team at 1-800-726-0190 is available to provide further guidance or assistance.

Dissatisfied

Grinds well. I haven't had any issues with clogging yet, but I haven't had it very long. I'm giving low score because of the attached rubber stopper closing piece that just HANGS off the lid. It's so ugly. It literally just hangs like an eyesore. It is only useful if you ground large amounts of coffee at a time, but even then, you would need to store the collection container elsewhere. The collection container doesn't fit well in its place with the stopper lid closed. So it just sits in my kitchen, looking like it's wagging a tail. I will probably just cut it off soon.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re glad to hear the grinder is performing well so far and that you haven’t experienced clogging. We’re sorry to learn that the attached rubber stopper design has been disappointing and feels inconvenient and unattractive in everyday use.

Doesn’t grind find enough for espresso

Got this grinder so I can make espresso at home. needed a burr grinder so thought this was gonna be perfect, but it does not grind fine enough for espresso. kind of disappointed because it advertises as espresso grinder, but doesn’t grind find enough.

We’re sorry to hear that the grinder did not meet your espresso expectations. For the best results, many customers find using the finest burr setting and grinding smaller amounts at a time helps achieve a finer consistency suitable for espresso.
