Great budget grinder
I bought the C2 Max after looking to spend a lot more on a quality mill, but having difficulty finding any in stock that weren't 3x the price. I settled on the C2 as the reviews were fairly good, and I don't mill for espresso. Some appear to have issues with that. For pour over this thing works great with good uniformity and a quick grind. My $30 one this is replacing took forever and constantly lost its grind setting during the mill, leaving a lot of boulders in the result. It was near impossible to dial things in unless going near espresso levels. I'm not a big fan of the lid being attached to the lever, but it shouldn't be a big deal unless one is traveling with it. Even then, a good cleaning or chucking it into a bag should be fine. Compared to my $30 mill, this one is significantly louder, or at least the pitch is higher. Some may not like the grippy texture, but I find it really helpful when powering through my 30g loads. All in all it appears to be well built, has a good weight to it, and does a good job at milling a consistent ground. Sure, it's not a Commandante, but it's also not over $300. If starting out on the hand grinding journey, I'd suggest this over something cheaper made of plastic with ceramic burrs. Yes they are a lower point of entry, but will only dissuade from enjoying milling. This is a good beginner one that will cover the user until they're at the point of stepping up to a much more specialized mill.

One of the best hand grinders under $200.
Unbeatable price/performance. If you're considering the C2 get this one as it comes with the upgraded E&B burr which would cost you about $40 to retrofit plus it has more capacity. This review largely mirros my review for the C2 with updates for the differences. Pros: • Solidly built • Grind adjustment is all metal • Plenty of adjustment steps • Large capacity (~ 30gm) • Sharp well-cut burrs • "E&B" burr is an upgrade (over the C2 model) • Knurling on housing gives good grip • Comes with storage bag and cleaning brush • Breaks down quick for easily for cleaning • Moving part rides on bearings Cons: • Internal supports are plastic (though they seem really robust) • Grounds get stuck in sharp corner of bottom camber. Would be better with a rounded or chamfered edge down there. • Stepped adjustment • Not as portable as smaller grinders All in all this is a FANTASTIC grinder even if you don't consider the current price. Even over $100 this would still be a brilliant deal. Easily holds it own with grinders that cost more than twice as much. It's essentially identical to the C2 except it's taller (more capacity) and also has the upgraded E&B center burr. Really solidly built. Feels weighty in the hand, grinds smootly, the knurling gives good grip on the housing and good leverage with the handle. Much bettter than "budget" grinders that are in this price range. They simply don't compare. This punches well above its price point. Summary: You cannont go wrong with this grinder, you just get so much quality and usability for your money. This really is all you need.

Great coffee grinder A+
I did a lot of research about coffee grinders and this seems to fit the bill. Stainless steel burrs, holds a decent amount of coffee beans to grind and easy to use. Did not disappoint works wonders. Even and consistent grinds every time. I got some cheap beans to practice and compare to my old store bought grounds. Can do fine medium and coarse ground anything in between with great results. Now I can enjoy freshly ground coffee everyday and skip the coffee shop. Very easy to use and assemble. Love the grip on the shaft. Glides very smoothly not hard to crank (my 10 year old did it) it's not noisy and a has a pleasant sound. I enjoy the process find it relaxing. Also easy to clean. Take it apart brush away put it back together ez. Highly recommend. Prefect for coffee for one or two.

Excellent performance, but nit for everyone.
It is high-quality and very heavy. It does the job very well, making a stunning grind of refined coffee. I gave it an A+. But turning the knob need to have force. Don't buy this one if you have osteoarthritis or a weak wrist. Then, get a battery-operated coffee grinder. Don't choose a cheap one; invest your money in an expensive one. I bought an inexpensive electric coffee grinder from Amazon; it was loud, messy, and terrible.

Super quality affordable piece!
We camp and use a french press relatively often and this grinder is a must have! It takes less than a minute to grind the beans and we grind two caps worth for a full french press. A decent amount of beans fit in one cap full for the size of the grinder. It’s extremely user friendly, works better than expected, and i would definitely recommend over and over!

A product of real quality that delivers improved coffee flavor.
After buying so many other things online that turned out to be cheap junk, I was pleasantly surprised at the weight and absolutely solid construction of this coffee grinder. It grinds much finer than my high-end electric burr grinder. Without the burn of an electric motor, the same beans that I have been using taste WAY better now, smoother and without any bitterness. Yes, it takes a couple of minutes to crank it and grind one load of coffee into its base, and I have to do two loads just for one mug of coffee. But I actually enjoy doing it and find the results well worth it. Also, I am worried about long-term power outages where I live, and this device gives me peace of mind that I will still be able to grind my coffee if that happens.

Es muy malo apenas es capaz de trituar el grano de cafe ,tiene mucha olgura o tolerancia lo que impide que los granos de cafe salgan bien molidos y como resultado obtines granitos de cafe más pequeños en ningun momento cafe en polvo bien molido.Es tirar el dinero a la basura.

Elegant and greatly functional. If you crave a cup of coffee, go for this, amazing grinding options that give very satisfying taste. It has a lot of settings, easy to use and very sturdy. It is my go to when I use the reusable k cups, just add two tea spoons to it, grind, back to the reusable k cup, brew it and enjoy your coffee. I love it
