For the price I would recommend, but if you’re uptight about perfect consistency, grind it by hand or be prepared to spend way more.

Never grinds the same size or amount even though we don’t change the settings... major frustration considering the price.

It's not top of the line, and the grind consistency is certainly not perfect, but it's working well for a fair price

This grinder works very well and it has a great price to boot!

We pulled the trigger on this grinder due to the good reviews and price.

Does a great job grinding the coffee.... but messy, difficult to clean

Does a nice job creating a consistent grind

Does a great job grinding the coffee.... but messy, difficult to clean

It’s quiet and does a pretty good job at grinding coffee beans

Does a decent job grinding the beans, though

It's not top of the line, and the grind consistency is certainly not perfect, but it's working well for a fair price

One worked well but then shorted out after back to back uses trying to grind an entire bag of coffee for a friend.

This grinder stopped working while grinding the second bag of beans

this works quite well especially for the price not that hard to clean it comes with a little brush and it’s simple to operate freshly ground coffee always taste better than packaged preground

It grinds consistent fineness and works like a charm.

This coffee grinder is attractive and solidly constructed.

Our last coffee grinder had a large hopper and bin, but this one grinds less than a cup at a time.

My old coffee grinder died and I wanted something that grinds the coffee to my likingand I can easily put away, something that is not too high, not too

All coffee grinders are loud, and this one is no exception, but its other features outweigh the noise

I bought this for my husband, who had been using a small electric coffee grinder that didn't offer any options, and which could only grind about 1-2 tablespoons at a time

It was outrageously loud, the grind inconsistent, and clueless as to number of cups dispensed (set for 4 - get maybe 2).

I have my dedicated espresso grinder set to the max fine value and the grinds are STILL coarse and drip-quality, nowhere remotely near the fineness needed for espresso

This is the sort of information to include in the instructions so people don't get frustrated with an otherwise fine grinder and a great value for the price.

If there aren't many beans in the top it won't grind as much as it should.

The courseness adjustment is now jammed and the output of the coffee from each grind has become inconsistent (it doesn’t grind as much as it used to so the consistency of brews is totally

Works well the only issue is the finer powder that kind of gets all over as you try to pour out the grounds

I can always count on barely ground beans, beans ground to unusable powder, and the same coarse grind no matter the selection - all in the same grinding session

Grind is uneven, producing everything from coarse to fine powder at the same time

I was hoping to use this for my French Press, but on the coarse setting the grind is about half coarse and half powder.

seems to work, does create some powder even on coarse grind (as to be expected), has auto shut off when it reaches the 'number of cups' threshold which is nice

That worked ok, but could be better and doesn't give me much room in the way of adjusting the grind, so I got this burr grinder based on lots of good reviews here

I see reviews that state good results for espresso or Turkish ground consistency, but I also see many reviews stating poor results for finer ground types

I chose this because the reviews seemed good and I was looking for something more compact than the cuisinart.

I've never given a bad review of a

Very disappointed given the good reviews.

I don't expect I would be getting vastly better performance for spending 3-5x on more expensive burr grinders

Decent grind quality, not the best conical burr grinder, but much better than a blade grinder.

This is my first step into a better burr grinder and for the price it does not disappoint

This isn't a terrible burr grinder but it isn't awesome, either

I purchased this because it's basically the cheapest burr grinder

I'm planning to return it tomorrow, I have tried different settings, checking in case burr was lose but nothing improves it's grinding, bad, bad, I was hoping for a better product, maybe I got a lemon!Pros: Not too big, perfect size for my needs and to store away, small counter footprint, not too noise

I simply can't trust that this device is grinding to the correct size or providing the correct amount of coffee

The finest grind I can get is size of a half carat diamond mixed with probably less then 5-10% if the right size of grounded coffee beans and everything in btw.

After several adjustments it grinds the correct amount and size for my coffee maker with one push of the button.

but even when I use the highest number meaning the finest grounded coffee the results are terrible, it is rendering small size " Rocky" texture and is unusable for expresso

It’s not only a huge waste of coffee and time, it also renders ineffective other techniques and taste from coffee makers after the grind

I brew a 6 cup pot every day, love the fresh ground coffee smell and taste.

This grinds the coffee beans very fine for better taste.

Just love grinding beans for a fresher tasting cup of coffee.

It was outrageously loud, the grind inconsistent, and clueless as to number of cups dispensed (set for 4 - get maybe 2).

I would not recommend this product, and I'm sorry I purchased it

I highly recommend this product if you can't afford one of the high-end products.

This is the worst-conceived product we have used in a long time.

If you are looking for a burr grinder, especially one with which to grind espresso, spend the extra dollars and get a better product than this one.

Overall, I am very upset with my purchase and would not recommend this product.

It is super loud, does not grind fine and I cannot recommend it

On a good note, it does grind the coffee very well and has a great taste

It does a good job but does not have a coarse enough grind for a French Press coffee maker, it leaves sludge at the bottom of the cup

Some fine powder does seems to sort of come out of the sides of the collection box as we grind, which does contribute to the mess.

It works, but does not do great with very coarse or very fine grounds

It is quite a bit quieter than my Mr. Coffee grinder but still somewhat noisy, as the grinder operates at a high speed, not slow speed like the Capresso and Baratza grinders advertise

" but I guess it's a bit more consistent in the finished product

Really, my only complaint is that it's a bit louder than I anticipated

Nice product...but explanation of grinding setting in manual..is a bit ambiguous and my setting wheel does not look the same as the one on the box or in photos of the grinder on Amazon.

At the finest grind it’s just good enough ... we could wish for a wee bit finer grind but it’s

Design makes a big mess, spewing ground coffee flakes out as it grinds

Not only does this grinder not grind coffee very fine, it makes a total mess when you grind and take the grinds out of the container

Makes a big mess whenever you grind some beans, grinds coarse on every setting

It’s a mess emptying the coffee after the coffee beans are ground

It takes just a few minutes to grind my beans and 5 minutes to clean up the mess

My fiance and I grind our coffee every morning and it grinds the beans in a uniform manner

It's not able to grind the beans enough to make a good cup of coffee

The biggest downside to it is the hopper size; It only holds enough beans for one grind.

/feels nice, it does not grind beans fine enough for an espresso maker

The reservoir holds enough beans for two strong carafes of coffee

The ground coffee gets a static charge so when you remove the lid, the charge is released and grounds fly out on the counter.

Some people have complained about the static charge & coffee sticking to the container, but that is easily cleaned with a swipe of your finger or a tap on the container.

Also, the plastic of the receptacle is "clingy": coffee always sticks to the top and sides, and that coffee ultimately ends up all over the counter and spills down to the floor, as well as on my hands, etc

I would really like a

That is especially true in winter because warming the house leads to dry air and that yields the static charge

machine itself works well, but it's really mess due to the static electricity issue of the collection box

I t was easy enough to use, but I should have paid attention to other reviews about it being super messy

Static electricity holds the grinds against the container.

static electricity has crumb everywhere - grind is good tho, but that is all

I have no idea what kind of materiel for the collection box, it comes with strong static electricity which makes the coffee powder everywhere

The motor burnt out before I could even grind a whole bag of coffee

Recycled milk jugs?It's possible, but seems unlikely, the motor burned out with only one use

My guess is that Chefman went with a smaller, cheaper motor with less torque and higher RPM's

I t was easy enough to use, but I should have paid attention to other reviews about it being super messy

if you set it for eight cups but only put seven cups of beans, the motor will whirr like a banshee

However, I do experience this spraying of the beans from static cling somehow

There is some static build up that makes the fines cling to the plastic, but I expect ground coffee to cling to plastic

Grind isn't any more consistent than my cheap Krups blade grinder and it is MESSY: design, coupled with lots of static cling make it impossible to transfer to coffee maker without having to wipe up the entire area.

I like my coffee finely ground, but the grounds are not as fine as I like them, no matter how I set the control.

I also had to work harder to place and remove the container, and I was always greeted with a ton of useless powder clinging to the top edge

Tried cold brew coffee and this just does not get the beans coarse enough or consistent enough

my only issue, I like making cold brew, which calls for a coarse ground

but I’m able to get a coarse enough grind for cold brew and French press and a nice medium grind for drip coffee

That is not good if you wanting a good brew I use a French press

So far we've used it for grinding coffee for cold brew and our drip coffee maker

I like my coffee finely ground, but the grounds are not as fine as I like them, no matter how I set the control.

It does a semi course grind but not quite as course as I want.

Being able to get a course grind of beans for the mesh filter in my Ninja improved taste and ability to rinse the filter afterwards.

Plus you do get a lot of finer grind in with it on the course grind setting

Not only won't it grind "fine" at all, but even the course grinding is below par

I t was easy enough to use, but I should have paid attention to other reviews about it being super messy

I have my grind set pretty coarse for a pour over, but every time there is a spray of clumpy coffee dust that accumulates in the top corner of the grounds bin

Cons: Horrible grinder, all the way to the thinnest setting it grinds very coarse with some coffee dust in between, total disappointment!, doesn't do it's job unless you would like some super coarse grind

As you can see from the pics, you get coffee dust that is so fine that they clump together on one side of the container, and you can also see all the very large chunks of coffee that settled on the top after brewing.

And it's painfully annoying to clean this thing, since the plastic that it's made of collects coffee dust and fingerprints like no tomorrow

When I open the lid, I always get fine coffee grinds flying out

Coffee grinds are coarse and don’t bring out any flavor

I like my coffee finely ground, but the grounds are not as fine as I like them, no matter how I set the control.

So now I have coffee grinds shooting all over my counter

Again so far so good and the coffee grind is perfect for my percolator scale 8 large grand, Great little machine and works perfect with my morning coffee!

A more course ground is better since a fine espresso grind has a tendency to stick to the sides of the container

If it could actually do a fine espresso grind, I'd deal with the dust and messiness

I like my coffee finely ground, but the grounds are not as fine as I like them, no matter how I set the control.

Totally happy with this product, consistent espresso grind, hope it holds up to my daily workload on the long haul.

The grinder works well except the grind is not fine enough to be considered an espresso grind
