Hamilton Beach Fresh Grind Electric Coffee Grinder for Beans, Spices and More, Stainless Steel Blades, Removable Chamber, Makes up to 12 Cups, Black

This small and mighty device is very easy to use and effective! In just a few seconds, it grinds beans, seeds, nuts, and spices. I love that it is easy to clean and store (nice touch with the cord compartment at the bottom). Very happy with this purchase!

Great price and user friendly. Seems like a great quality coffee grinder especially for the price. Not super loud and small enough to fit where ever you want to store it. Works great!

After three years of use, I'm finally writing a review. This is a very simple coffee grinder. It spins at one speed setting, so if you want a course grind, then don't grind longer than 15 seconds. The longer you grind, the finer it gets. There are two removable parts: 1) the cap/cup (top), and 2) the cup/blade (bottom). This makes cleaning very easy. Here's how you use the grinder. 1) Plug in the electrical cord. 2) Fill the cup/blade with coffee beans. 3) Place the cap/cup onto the cup/blade. 4) Press the button for at least 15 seconds. 5) Unplug machine by gripping the plug. 6) Turn machine upside down so the coffee grinds fall into the cap/cup. 7) Remove the machine from the cap/cup. 8) Pour out grinds from cap/cup. I go through these steps because of some of the reviews. Some people say that they make a mess when they remove the cup/blade. I understand why. The cup/blade has fill lines. This implies that the cup/blade is intended to be removed during operations to remove the finished grinds. But no, do not remove the cup/blade with grinds in the cup/blade. Turn the machine upside down so that the grinds fall into the cap/cup. This is because the cap/cup removes easily, and the cup/blade does not remove easily. You will make a mess struggling with the cup/blade while it is full of grinds. Another review said the cord get damaged at the base when unplugging. This is an example of the need for detailed instructions. What is obvious to some is not always so. When you unplug, grip the plug and pull. Do not only hold the machine and yank the cord out of the electrical outlet. You will damage the connection between the cord and the machine. This coffee grinder is very simple, with a good design, well built and reasonably priced. Qualities that you want in any tool.

Great grinder for the price. It is quiet. It does a great job at grinding. My only challenge with it is in order to grind for 12 cups, you have to fill it to the brim. You have to be careful removing the cup to dump the grinds for use to avoid spilling any. Slight more cup volume would be nice. But it works and works great.

Small and takes up less space in my kitchen. Works well and fast! The volume of coffee beans is not a large amount which is perfect for me because I purchased this coffee grinder to refill my coffee pods.

Very happy with this grinder. The stainless steel is great. It is well made; easy to use. The grinding is even; can be controlled simply by holding the button down until it reaches desired fineness.

I use this only for flax seeds. That’s why I bought it, don’t use it for anything else, so I can’t say about other uses. It works great for flax seeds! Very easy to put together, use and store.

I've used this exclusively for spices, and the cup where the blades attach started cracking after only a few uses. The cracks didn't grow for around a year (I only use it once or twice per month, on average) but now I'm pretty sure that one or two more uses and it will be so broken that I'll have to toss it. There are many cracks in the sides now and a couple are full of spice dust. About 80% of what I've used it for has been cumin. The rest is a mix that includes black pepper and annato seeds. Cumin doesn't seem that hard, but about half of the cracks appeared before I ground any of the hard spices. It's a great grinder in may ways, but the cup is just too fragile.
