"Best grinder for those who don't drink coffee..."
If you only plan to drink coffee for the next month or two, buy this grinder!! It was truly one of the best and we'll miss it. One of the coolest features was the safety catch that needs to be engaged for the grinder to work. This protects your fingers from (1) getting through the sealed plastic cover, then (2) working their way over the lip of the metal grinding bowl, and (3) slipping down into the nasty metal blades. Only problem is that after a week or two you have to hold the whole apparatus to keep the latch engaged. After three or four months (if you use it every morning)the little nubs gets rubbed down so no matter what you do the grinder won't work ever again, keeping you fingers safe forever!!!!

"Great little grinder!"
I did a lot of internet comparison shopping before deciding to purchase this nifty little coffee grinder, and I haven't regretted my decision. It's fast, simple to adjust and to operate, easy to clean, and does a great job of grinding our coffee just the way we like it. We've had it for over six months with no problems whatsoever.

"Worked fine, for about three grinds"
Bought this grinder looking for something to grind enough coffee for my wife and I, we drink one or two pots a day. After a week of use, it began smoking and something had clearly burned out. Returned promptly without question from Amazon.

Contrast this to the $20 grinder from Walmart I bought a few years ago that performed just as well, but only wore out when the plastic literally broke apart at the seam holding the lid down.

"Pretty good for the money"
It's not a fancy burr grinder, but it does really well for the price. It has 5 settings, so if you aren't too picky I recommend it! You will never buy pre-ground coffee again. The difference is amazing! And the cord wrap keeps everything from getting tangled in the pantry.

"Forget this one..."
Like another reviewer, I found this grinder wouldn't work right out of the box as the vibration of the grinder backed off the plastic cover from the locked to the unlocked position, shutting off the unit. I never ground a bean in this loser. It goes back to the store for a refund tomorrow. I'll likely buy a good German-made manual burr grinder, as I am sick of buying poorly executed Asian-made electrical appliances that end up in the land fill much too soon. Don't waste your time on low cost blade grinders-most of them are junk. Look for a good burr grinder that is either manual or electric.

What our customer's say!

"good product", I love this grinder, very convenience and easy to clean. The control button seems easy to break, everytime lock and unlock the grind cylinder need to pay extra attention to avoid grabing the button. But compare to other three coffee grinder that I had, this one definitely a winner.

"Definitely NOT "Hands-Free" ", This is a good-looking grinder, it grinds just right. I do love the removable stainless steel insert, way less of a mess. But, within perhaps a month of purchase, you can no longer "walk away" while the coffee grinds. The vibrations of the machine cause the plastic top to "unlock" and the grinding will stop. You have to stand there and hold the plastic top in the "locked" position if you want the grinder to finish its cycle. It is definitely NOT "hands-free." You don't have to hold the button down, just hold the plastic top in place. It is just like any other cheap grinder now, you have to stand there holding it, except for the fact that this one is NOT cheap! I miss being able to walk away...I don't believe I will buy this one again...

"not worth the money", not satisfied, had a Braun in the past which was much easier to handle, this machine to difficult to remove cup and to grind, would not buy again

"very poor", After about 1 week of use the plastic cover would no longer latch. It doesn't appear that anything broke, but it must have worn slightly. I now have to continually apply a twisting pressure while grinding or else the grinder will stop.
Also, you cannot use it repeatedly, so if you like to grind enough coffee for a few days at once, this is not the machine for you. Just doing two fine grinds in a row causes it to smoke quite a *lot* and emit a nasty odor. I am not sure how this has gotten such good reviews. It is inferior to all the basic, $10-15 models I've tried.

"Best Grinder for Espresso", If you don't clean this grinder regularly where the plastic top fits...the on button will appear not to work because you need a tight fit. Thats why they provide a cleaning brush. I've had my grinder for 1.5 years now and its only now that its not working because the plastic top has cracked from me dropping it. This grinder makes the finest grind for espresso that I know...that's in comparison to the other 4 grinders I have in my cupboard that I've retired due to a poor grind and difficulty cleaning.

Read this reviews before You buy...

"Could be Better!", I bought this grinder based upon mainly reviews here - I like it, BUT wish I had actually bought another. FIRST - the cord provided is WAY too SHORT, it sets on my kitchen counter under my cabinets, thus, one, like most, have to pull it out to use it....I had to attach a lousy extension cord so I could pull it out maybe another 6". SECOND - the plastic cup\cap on the unit must be engaged and then twisted kind of hard to the right to "lock" before you hit the GRIND button....I found almost immediately that IF I did not put my arm/hand on top of the "cap\cup" that the ginding would usually vibrate the cap enough so it would shut off the grind prematurely. So I hold down on the top with some force while it is grinding. Other than those two quibbles...it works fine....BUT they need to address those 2 things then I could give it a 5 STAR rating.

"$25 to grind a 1/4 of coffee...once.", I liked the design and and the idea of an auto grind switch, but after one use it quit working. Now it's a fight to get the thing to grind at all. On top of that it's 40 days since I bought it and Amazon won't give a full refund after 30 days. The cost is too low to bother returning the junk to the manufacturer. So my only option is to not buy Hamilton Beach products in the future. It may only have been $25, but that is A LOT of money to grind a 1/4 pound of coffee.

"Handy Dandy Blade Grinder", As an "older" person with hand issues, it takes a little strength to remove the blade cup. So I only remove the clear outer plastic cup by inverting it over my pot's brew holder. EASY on the hands. This is a fine little machine for the price.

"Love it!", I used to have a starbucks coffee grinder and this one is definitely much better. I love the fact that I can just push one button and walk away. I love the different settings so that I can adjust the grind (in case I want it stronger or weaker). I would definitely recommend this item...and if mine ever breaks I will definitely be ordering the same one again!!!

"Worked quite fine ...", ... for the first two times. Then it quit working. After 4 weeks. Very disappointed. Will try the 1-800-number now.
