Detailed Commentary

What can I say, you get what you pay for. This was my first "Coffee Grinder" purchase. It’s better than a blade grinder, so in that respect it’s a step up. The machine is small and lightweight. It produces an uneven grind, which for me is a problem (but not as uneven as a blade grinder).

I have owned this machine for about 3 years, so I didn’t expect it to last. And the grinder didn’t let me down. The plastic whole bean hopper broke; I can still use it though. Also the machine is very noisy.

I don’t regret buying the grinder because I spend a whole lot on it. It served its purpose: A beginning grinder to use instead of a blade grinder. I not keep it with me at work.

I have no regrets although I would never buy it again.

Buying Experience

When I bought it home from Target it was missing clear grounds receptacle lid. I had to return it for another.
