Summary: Long distance grinder
Comment: I make a lot of coffee: I fill this with beans at least twice a day, every day for the past ten years or so, and this little baby is still going strong. Sure, a burr grinder makes it easier to be precise, but after all this time I'm pretty accurate about the grind time. Some other reviewers have had a different experience, but I can testify that it's at least possible for one of these to last over a decade of constant use.
Customer Rating: 
Summary: Grinds sufficient for espresso
Comment: This is a good first grinding mill. Will grind fine enough for espresso and will also further grind coffee that is bought not fine enough. Don't use water to clean unless youw wait a long time for drying. I just grind ten to fifteen seconds ( three times five seconds) for espresso then empty and clean using an unused (for painting that is) half inch paint brush to remove all coffee powder without damaging grinding blades. Value for Money? - DEFINITELY.

Summary: It's a 'Coffee' Mill
Comment: This is a coffee mill. It grinds coffee. It's small and does "exactly what it says on the tin" :-) Okay, the cable is a bit short and I also can smell the mill (lubricant or otherwise) after use - minor negatives. I read the other reviews and you really can't mark it down for things like: "it does not stand up to grinding spices Cumin or similar that contain certain chemicals that corrode metal and plastic" - 1) it's a coffee mill, 2) *nothing* which is made of metal and plastic will stand up to anything that corrodes metal or plastic! ;-) Buy it, it's a good mill.

Summary: Great but flawed
Comment: I grind a lot of spices as part of my semi-professional job as an Asian Chef. This by far has been the best of this type of grinder, but it suffers from the same fault as most of its competitors; it does not stand up to grinding spices Cumin or similar that contain certain chemicals that corrode metal and plastic. This grinder lasted less time that my previous types e.g. Moulinex, Braun before it seized (because of cumin damage to the bearing). If you want to maitain any of these types of grinder my advice is: Never allow any dampness near the grinder area as the bearing on this machine is more susceptible to rusting, just clean it out with a dry brush and if necessary a cloth dipped in a little oil; and aways wash the plastic top in warm soapy water not the dishwasher. Why can't manufactureres produce a spice grinder that is not susceptible to spice damage and will not rust and seize. There must surely be a very large demand for electric grinders specifically for spices these days.

Summary: Simply perfect coffee
Comment: I only have one cup of coffee a day - but it has to be the best. I enjoy the ritual of trying to make the perfect cup. This grinder makes that goal consistently achievable.
It is small, neat, attractive (mine is black), well designed, simple to the point of basic - and effective. I use a stove top espresso maker, and this grinds beautifully fine, which makes the espresso machine really have to work to force through the coffee. The result is strong, smooth coffee - perfect to add milk to, or to have black. Most importantly, I now get better cups of coffee than before I owned it.
A really pleasing product.
