Design won't hold up to rigor of daily use. They have reconditioned product for a resason this is a POS. Don't buy it. Used for three months, and now broken.
Not much to say about this grinder except that it does a great job of creating an even grind at every level between espresso and French roast. Buying it refurbished at less than half of the price of a new one helps make it feel abundantly worth the money, too.It is a bit loud, but is there a grinder that isn't.
Put the indicator to the maximum Fine setting. Seemed OK, but did not seem very fine. With my blade grinder, the grounds look like slick, dark brown mud, but this thing didn't get that fine, it looked like beach sand texture. Ordered it, got it home, made coffee. It is nice to have a one touch grinder but not when it doesn't do the job well enough, and I don't want to have to pour the grinds through a second time just to get it fine enough. Left it, came back the next morning and made a full pot of coffee.
I am sending it back. I really thought this was going to be great. Turned the grinder to Fine and tried it. After pouring the coffee, I pulled out the grinds and checked the left overs.
The bean hopper piece feeds the beans down a tube to the burr grinder. We'd been using this burr grinder for less than 3 months when the top piece broke off. This tube is what snapped in half on ours.
Works just s I wanted. It cuts the coffee nice and fine for Expresso and Makes nice Drip Coffee too.
