Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Well this is a treat! I got this and a cheap blade grinder to compare both them and how they stack up against my burr hand grinder for espresso grind. I don't care of the other grinds, so this comparison is only on how it works for them. In a nut shell, the grounds for this were EXACTLY the same as the hard earned grounds from the hand crank burr grinder. Perfect for an espresso. In case you were wondering, the cheap blade grinder, no espresso setting came out exactly as course as the brew pre-ground grounds you buy from the store. I included some pictures with measurements of this machine, and a comparison of the results. On the upper left are the cheap blade grinder grounds, lower left pre-ground bag grounds, and on the upper right this machine and lower right the hand crank burr. Also, I only did two scoops (scoop included) which is enough for one shot of espresso. I just put it on the espresso setting at the lowest 4 cups. No problems with the very small amount. The catch cup has a lid, so be careful when you take it off to pour the grounds out (use a corner, not a flat side) straight into the deal to pack for espresso. There is static, so some grounds do stick in the bucket, but actually less than in the cheap blade grinder. This is easy to rinse out. I don't know of course how long this will last, like any modern appliance it is mostly plastic. But it looks like it's fairly well made and treated well shouldn't have a problem. Until this breaks (and I'll update if it does soon) I would HIGHLY recommend this as a great grinder for the price point. If this review helped you, please click below and let others know!
