I was very close to buying one of those expensive grinders but I chose to give this one a try first. This gives my coffee beans a perfect grind. The grinds look just like what you expect from one of those pricey professional grinders. No difference at all! At $20 this was a steal!
"It's designed for coffee, but I use it for other things."

I got this product for grinding dried hot peppers from my garden. It does a great job in grinding the peppers down to almost a "sand" form, which I can use as an ingredient in my home made chili sauce, meat rubs, etc.
This is a powerful grinder. It has nice readings on the side that are helpful if you can figure out what they actually mean. You can definitely grind enough coffee for your average 10 pot coffee pot. However, I find using this a bit annoying. The lid fits firmly. If you are someone who gets the grounds out by turning the grinder upside down and then putting the lid on, realize that you better be sure you're done. The plastic lid is - ironically - too well made, meaning that there is no going back once you drip out the coffee.
It is also very easy to get coffee on the sides of the the lid such that the lid doesn't fit smoothly as you re-attch the lid.
It's functional. It works. In fact, we've had this one for over 4 years with no problem. It grinds really well. But is there anything special about this grinder? Eh...

This product is perfect for grinding coffee and flax seeds.It is easy to wipe out and keep clean with a dry paper towel. It is also the ideal size for my limited counter space, is easy to operate, and is quieter than I had expected. Overall, I am very pleased with this purchase.

This grinder's best design feature is the simplicity. One button, one setting, not too many parts. Pour beans in, grind, pour coffee out. Done. If you have always bought ground coffee you will be surprised at the difference in flavor when you grind it just before brewing. Wow! It has also come in handy for grinding herbs & spices. They taste much better freshly ground as well!

Purchased this unit to replace an older, worn-out unit of same make and model.
Use: Daily for grinding whole coffee beans; occasionally for grinding nuts, spices, etc.
Pros: Unit is simple to use and takes up little counter space. Appearance is clean and easy on the eyes. Recommend black as it doesn't look dirty after grinding coffee. Reliable. Not expensive.
Cons: If you require a thoroughly consistent grain size in your ground coffee, seek another more expensive device. Difficult to clean after using it for grinding nuts or spices. Loud enough to stop conversation throughout the room. Unit gave off "burning electrical insulation" smell when used during the first week, so I watched it carefully and prepared to return it as defective. Then the unit quit putting out that smell and has been performing well since.
Summary: I would recommend this unit to a friend.
