My only gripe is static electricity can cause some grinds to stick to the side of the plastic

The one negative of the plastic container of the Sboly, over the metallic of the OXO is static electricity

The reviews listing the static electricity are 100% accurate

This grinder produces so much static electricity that grinds go and stick everywhere

After each grind I have ground coffee all around the base and static electricity causes grinds to stick to the front of the grinder.

This item produces static electricity when in use, this causes the coffee grounds to jump out of the container when you open it causing a huge mess

I'll most likely be sending this product back and getting a more expensive one that is less messy and creates less static electricity (not a perfect solution though)

The unit does have some static electricity build-up in the hopper, but the included top cover and hatch prevent the grounds from leaping out of the hopper when you remove it from the machine

Then when the canister was removed, the static electricity made even larger amounts of grounds go everywhere.

The plastic had static electricity

And it generates a ton of static electricity (we hoped this would abate over time

I looked at several reviews complaining about the static electricity in the Coffee Powder Container and was weary

I have learned to add a few drops of water to the beans before grinding to eliminate the static electricity

We found that once we rinsed the canister (and let it dry) the static electricity was reduced to almost nothing, making it a much cleaner process

There's also a learning curve on getting the grounds out, as static electricity in this area causes it to cling to the bottom and sides

Grinds well but generates a huge amount of static electricity resulting in a huge mess.

The main complaint is that it will make a mess duo to static electricity.

No matter how careful you are, the static electricity of the grinds gets all over the plastic and does not make it easy to grind cleanly.

My first complaint is that static electricity generated in the grinding causes the coffee grinds fly everywhere when you open the hopper.

Far too much-wasted coffee from the static electricity generated

One unexpected results was static electricity of the grounds.

But the mess it makes because of static electricity is NO joke

The big problem that I have with it is the fact that it creates an incredible amount of static electricity

I’ve not had the static electricity sending my coffee all over the place

The cup also seems to have a static electricity issue or something that causes the finer grounds to want to stick to the insides of the cup; maybe it 's just the moisture content of the the coffee .

I have to clean up the unit and my counter after every use because of the static electricity that charges the particles and sends them flying into the air

Having to clean it after each use is a little cumbersome, and the static electricity problem mentioned by other people was experienced by us.

Static electricity ensures coffee grounds go everywhere on the unit itself and the counter top.3

In order for a person to open the ground coffee chamber, you have to wait at least 20 minutes for the static electricity to go away

Well, I told them about the static electricity, and all they told me was to pour water in the coffee

The static electricity would go away if you waited 5 minutes or so, but who wants to wait 5 minutes more when you want a cup of coffee?

The #1 pet peave with this is the static electricity on the grounds receptacle

The grinder tends to create static electricity

It does have a static electricity issue, though

Grinder does a fine job but is as with most coffee grinders it is prone to build up static electricity

I have tried cleaning out the hole where the coffee comes out and into the container and basically cleaned the entire machine several times, but there's always a mess on top of the container and stuck by static electricity to all surfaces

I had anticipated problems with static electricity, the bugaboo of burr grinders.

As soon as the container is removed from the housing to scoop up some coffee for use, grounds fly EVERYWHERE from the static electricity.

It creates a large amount of static electricity all about the grinder as it operates, loading the grindings with charge.

Have not yet experienced much static electricity so the ground coffee comes easily out of the container.

Nothing I've tried will eliminate the static electricity

(I did not have to take these static electricity precautions with the metal container of the OXO.)I returned the OXO because of a manufacturing defect

Does a great job grinding, but as others have reported static electricity on the collection chamber is a problem even at 55% relative humidity

I do have issues with static electricity, but the oilier your beans are the less static

What has become annoying is static electricity

This thing creates some type of static electricity and the coffee grinds fly around as if there were a fan blowing

Let me say that I ignored those reviews that complained about the static electricity making the coffee grinds fly all over the kitchen counter, thinking that these people had to be exaggerating

The container that the ground coffee goes into gets so much static electricity that the grinds go all over the place when you open it

then it goes back to the annoying static electricity

Grinding creates static electricity so things don’t always just drop into the container

Works well, a bit tedious to clean and the grounds get static electricity and cling to

The issue is the amount of static electricity created when grinding

Removing the lid to the collection chamber to pour the ground coffee into anything else, again coffee is literally thrown 18 inches due to the static electricity

Static electricity causes some of the ground beans to stick to the the inside of the catch bin

There is a lot of static electricity that leads to a mess of coffee grinds

Another reviewer suggested draping a wet paper towel over the container area to stop static electricity from causing grounds to be expelled.

I think this is when some grinded coffee reaches the countertop because of static electricity

n’t think I could work this thing in the morning

n’t mind the noise, I mean, it’s a grinder and it grinds pretty fast

n’t clean the burrs out every few days and then give it a nice shake

n’t appreciate how sloppy it is.

Maximum Coarse setting is not as coarse as I like for my french press coffee maker.

Other wise I like how it grinds coffee

Because the beans don't drop or get stuck, this will sometimes cause the grinder to run when there are no beans being ground and this seems to create a strange plastic(y) smell and makes me feel like the grinder is about to burn out
