Detailed Commentary
This is a great little grinder, I use this machine to grind espresso and coffee. There's not a whole lot to say; pour the beans into the hopper, select the grind and flip the switch.
I will address a few points:
Yes coffee beans occassionaly do get stuck in the hopper, why do reviewers complain about this?(criticism of this point is a little odd at best).
The glass ground coffee receptacle is beyond flimsy, I will buy another because I expect to accidentally break mine :)
Yes, there is a little static cling; so what. My Mazzer produced alot of static and it's the best grinder on the market.
Buying Experience
Received this grinder directly from KitchenAid in exchange for contract work.
