Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I read all the customer reviews and as the former owner of both a really fancy burr grinder and a Krups blade grinder (lost in the last move, darn), I can say that those folks complaining about static, uneven grind, cleaning issues, mess when uncapping it (hint: Hold it upside down and tap the bottom gently to loosen the grinds then slowly release the cap), and breaking the red contact pin... I have to wonder: do they complain because they're socks aren't labeled L and R? It's a blade grinder. It does a perfectly good job of grinding my coffee beans every morning. This, in my household, is a very important job indeed. Yes, it "sheds" a little bean dust when you remove the cap. I have never ever had a grinder of any price or type that didn't. Get a sponge. *sigh* I loved my Krups, I loved the burr grinder (ex got it in the divorce), and I love the Bodum.
