To start with the add talks about a stainless steel product.

I can't believe how fast this stainless steel conical grinder works and the result is very consistant

I don't store my beans in the grinder but put them in an air-tight stainless steel canister

Stainless steel looks is just a thin layer over plastic

The construction is pretty cheap flimsy plastic with thin sheet stainless steel wrapping the body of the grinder

Does a great job at grinding the exact ground that you need

It does a great job at grinding the beans to a fine grind

Does a good job grinding my French roast coffee beans which are a little

It's pretty quiet, easy to use and does a nice job evenly grinding beans.

I've been searching for the "perfect" cup of coffee , with this burr grinder to prepare the beans I think it's as close as you can get and for a reasonable price.

After looking at a dozen different grinders and reading countless reviews on Amazon and other websites, I finally settled on this grinder because it seemed to have the best reviews for the price point I could afford

Consistent grind for a cheap price.

Certainly willing to go distance for good coffee which is obvious from my willingness to pay hefty price for grinder.

It's a wonderful all-purpose grinder for any type of coffee drinker; and at a very reasonable price

Why did I get such an inexpensive grinder if I like espresso?

The adjustable grinder settings make it possible to achieve the perfect grind consistency for perfect espresso

Grinds that small using oily beans tend to get caught up inside the grinder and that can lead to a mess or too little ground espresso beans or a stopped up grinder.

This makes a nice espresso grind and drip grind.

This is a great grinder that can make a very fine espresso grind

Grinds at a slower speed than some other machines, which is good for coffee quality (and less noise)- Affordable (less than $100 for a good conical burr

It’s fairly easy to use and keep clean, and, typical of any decent burr grinder, it delivers a relatively consistent and even grind at most settings.

It's a well built, no thrills burr grinder that gets the job done

It is one of the least expensive burr grinders available

Whether one or the other is better between conical and flat burrs is debatable, but having the control of running the beans through the fixed space between a good burr set is arguably better than a blade that randomly chops at the beans from the bottom of the pile.

, it ground coffee just fine, however, the mess it made created more trouble than it was worth, so the seller kindly issued a refund: Bellemain Burr Coffee Grinder

Coffee grinder was priced good and arrived as advertised.

But I didn't like electric coffee grinders that use a blade because they were noisy and the grinding process was more or less pot luck

Absolutely the best Coffee grinder i ever own, its quiet, it doesnt vibrate

So we bought this coffee grinder for work and enjoyed it for a year and a half.

It has revolutionized the flavor of my coffee -- I'm kicking myself in the head for going most of my life without a burr grinder

Still quiet, little static as

But for me I simply appreciate the flavor that the consistent, but less fine, grind offers

However, it was crazy strong and I immediately realized why upon closer inspection of the coffee grinds themselves as they made contact with the water.

This one is the best..exquisite flavor, grind and quiet compared to other grinders

Some reviews complained about the grinder leaving a mess

it doesn't work very well and how it got good reviews is beyond me.

This particular grinder had CONSISTENTLY positive reviews, and now I know why

It was working fine and I could second all the positive reviews there are

I expected more for the price and all the positive reviews

This product was used once a week in an office - and broke in less than a year.

Nice product, the only downfall I found was the need to bang on it the whole time its grinding or the beans don't feed into the grinder.

Great product but can get a little messy when removing the cup after grounding the beans.

Great product, but it spits out coffee ground on my counter

Besides the imperfect grinds, this product just felt cheap

, good quality grind.- Fairly easy cleanup.- High quality metal burr

I've been using this grinder everyday for almost a year, and it still grinds just as consistently as it did brand new.

Not only does it now take a fraction of the time to make my coffee, the quality has improved drastically thanks to the ability to do a finer and more uniform grind

After researching grinders to death, I purchased this machine to grind coffee beans for my espresso

This is a very durable machine that provides a good grind when making your coffee

This machine perfectly grinds the beans into a consistently sized grind enabling the beans to yield maximum flavor

While grinding beans, I have to pause and shake the machine for beans to empty from hopper

Also when grinding the machine is so light weight that you have to shake it for it to keep beans flowing.

It takes forever to grind enough beans for a single cup.

I purchased this grinder to grind coffee beans for a new espresso machine I recently bought

Unfortunately we his one does not grind the beans as fine as it’s needed

, It can grind the coffee beans like no other grinder I have ever used( Last coffee grinder I bought was

You have to play with the grind the the number of seconds that it grinds the beans.

The ground coffee container a little tight but follow the instruction and tilt the top inward first, no problem

Instead there is a rubberized path, shape like a nose, to reach the container (or the outlet if you like to grind directly into the filter).

The clear ground coffee container is too tall, so it touches (actually fits snugly against) the part where the coffee comes out, making it hard to get out and put back in

Then, the add says it will grind coffee fine enough to grind very fine and uses the example of grinding so fine as to be incredible to grind Turkish coffee.

I also like the static resistant plastic container it has

We bought this to make an awesome cold brew and are just so pleased

It grinds coffee beans consistently to the desired setting, and the resulting grind provides a great brew.

Great grinder, my old one was a small grinder that didn’t hold enough for a strong brew without grinding twice

It will grind for espresso up to super coarse for French Press or cold brew

Unfortunately the coarse grind is neither even nor coarse enough for french press or cold brew

Again, still no response from the seller on whether it's a design flaw or operator issue, (which I'm totally open to

Bought the Ariete primarily for french press and pour over coffee to use with my 12 cup press, as my hand grinder not only won't hold enough beans (45-58 g) but is a chore when the need for coffee strikes in the morning

However, it was crazy strong and I immediately realized why upon closer inspection of the coffee grinds themselves as they made contact with the water.

Unlike the absurdly expensive Baratza which the company knows has a design flaw, but does nothing about (the motor burns

This is a small design flaw, yes, but I sincerely resent having to rough-up my brand new, shiny, not-cheap grinder before I can make a cup of coffee in the morning

Then, the add says it will grind coffee fine enough to grind very fine and uses the example of grinding so fine as to be incredible to grind Turkish coffee.

Plastic is nice plastic.

I also like the static resistant plastic container it has

I would prefer something that screwed on with hard plastic

The catch container has a soft plastic top where we will have to wait and see how long it will last

mind cleaning up a mess every morning, maybe this grinder is for you.

That being said, there is no static mess of coffee grounds all over the counter.

I love this grinder...it makes no mess at all

This unit has a container with a lid that has a wide funnel like opening which allows you to dump the grounds into another container without the static mess

The grinds never touch the canister so no static, no mess, one less thing to clean

Not a single speck of coffee due to spill or static cling

Bought the Ariete primarily for french press and pour over coffee to use with my 12 cup press, as my hand grinder not only won't hold enough beans (45-58 g) but is a chore when the need for coffee strikes in the morning

The grounds cup allows the new grounds to pour out easily, no static cling

A few things I noticed was when using an oily bean, the grind coffee seems to be more attracted to static cling

The plastic receiving cup builds up static electricity resulting in fines clinging to the sides and top of the cup

Bought the Ariete primarily for french press and pour over coffee to use with my 12 cup press, as my hand grinder not only won't hold enough beans (45-58 g) but is a chore when the need for coffee strikes in the morning

The coffee grinds stay just as fresh as the day that I ground the entire bag of beans.

It only took a few minutes to grind the entire bag of beans since the hopper can hold up to 2.5 cups of beans at one

The most I grind is 60 or 70 g for a liter or even 15 g for a cup

The Cuisinart did indeed work great for the year that I had it until the motor burned out on me while grinding a 2 pound bag of beans.

Since I recently received it, I’m still working on the setting I like my coffee grinds

;O) Enjoy!!

In now time flat your counter is covered - COVERED - in coffee grinds.

The coffee grind is too fine to strain properly with the French Press and the coffee has a powdery, bitter after taste with sludge left in the bottom of the cup.

When I ordered this item, it would only grind fine coffee ground (not quite fine enough for espresso, but close)

Of course, I expected some static electricity but this is the biggest mess I

Plastic causes static electricity... hence the coffee mess.

Nothing to clean, no static electricity.

What I like - removable burr for cleaning, almost no static electricity in ground coffee container, easy to pour ground coffee directly in to cone of drip coffee maker from ground coffee container, easy to operate and well placed controls for the grinding time and grind thickness setting, removable whole bean hopper makes it easy to weigh whole beans on a digital scale before grinding for perfect ratios of water and coffee

Static electricity of ground coffee in the container wasn't expected.
