An entry level consumer burr grinder, not suitable for espresso. Made by Salton for Capresso. |

| Bottom Line: Huge step up from blade grinders, though if I was in the market for another, I'd be tempted to look at the Solis. |

| Bottom Line: DO NOT BUY THIS GRINDER! It is better than a chopper grinder, but not by much. |

| Bottom Line: Stick with your whirly-blade and save your cash for another burr-grinder. Any other burr-grinder. |

| Bottom Line: You're paying $50 for an annoying mess and a cheap product. But works for drip and french press and cup quality is good. |

| Bottom Line: This grinder is barely adequate for drip coffee, but definately better than a blade grinder. |
