The "cups" selection dial took some time to figure out since it isn't really a great way to know how much coffee you'll end up grinding
My husband prefers to grind his coffee by hand the old fashioned way, but I drink iced coffee by the pitcher and needed a faster and easier way to have fresh ground beans in a larger capacity
but I love the way it dials to the amount of coffee you
When talking to my favorite baristas, they always tell me the size/coarseness of the beans impacts the flavor and that "THE BEST WAY" to extract the flavor and ensure uniform grind iswait for it....a handgrinder
I tried finer and finer settings and finally got a grind that is marginally acceptable for french press, but the setting is almost as far down as it will go, and there are still large pieces mixed in

I removed the hopper and the top plate around the opening (careful not to lose the screws and the trigger peg and spring), then popped off the rubber "feet" on the bottom and unscrewed the bottom cover to dump out the trapped grounds
Unfortunately, taking the hopper off to clean the burrs (after unplugging the unit) seems to be the only way to get it back to working order.
Would not be bad but hopper broke off top of grinder tube and had to glue back together if I could get new hopper that would be nice
Both of these exhibited a specific issue -- the clear, plastic hopper on top will simply pop off and give the appearance the entire unit is dead.

It had to be small enough to tuck under my cabinets on the countertop, my top price was $100, and I wanted something that wouldn't look big and bulky on the countertop.
We've had this grinder for less than a year--it was a good price
Great product for a great price
We decided to purchase another one since the price was great and the first unit had worked quite well for a while.
It has been reliable for me for years, however and the price is hard to beat if you want to start with a burr grinder instead of a blade grinder

I’ll set it to 8 cups and it doesn’t even grind enough beans for a 6 cup pot
I make my coffee in a percolator and I need my beans to be extra fine for my perfect cup
Fresh beans with oils seem to be unfriendly and the burr's grinding mechanism doesn't seem to want to move.
My son loves a great cup of coffee with fresh ground beans.
We make cold brew coffee every day and this grinder works perfect!
Had been using it weekly to coarse grind beans, 5 cups of beans at a time, to make cold brew.
Followed instructions to a tee and still came up with an uneven grind and a weak, underextracted brew for a four cup pot- medium grind for flat bottom filter
We used this on average once a week to grind 12 oz of beans (3 cycles) for our cold brew Toddy
This results in a very rich cup, drip brew, + grass fed milk
