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

| Bottom Line: Look elsewhere - this simply doesn't do any job well or even adequately. |

| 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: If you only make drip coffee with paper filters this unit will work for you. Just keep a paper plate under it for the mess. |

| Bottom Line: Honestly, I'd rather have a whirly-blade grinder. It's at least as good, and less than half the price. |

| Bottom Line: All in all if you cannot afford Rocky or better this will do the Job. Otherwise beaware of its short commings. |
