 Rating:  - Simple grinder which lasted around two yearsI bought this grinder for Christmas 2006 and I'm now looking for a replacement for Christmas 2008. It lasted around two years. It is a fair design, very straightforward, what you can see in the picture is what you get. However I expected it to last longer than two years. Something has become detatched/loose internally - the blade spins whilst it is empty but doesn't spin if coffee is inside. I did also use it for grinding spices, mainly cinnamon. I imagined it would be a fairly simple repair, ... Read More Rating:  - Run of the millWhen my wife dropped and broke our Bodum C-Mill Coffee Grinder, she replaced it with this item. It does the job well enough, and the snug fitting, generous lid is a good feature that allows you to tip the ground coffee into it before emptying into the cafetiere. The downside, however, is that every time I do a grind I'm left with the unpleasant whiff of burnt shellac from the grinder's little motor. I'd take back my old Bodum 5679 C-Mill Electric Coffee Grinder any day. Rating:  - Long distance grinderI 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. Rating: - Grinds sufficient for espressoThis 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. Rating: - It's a 'Coffee' MillThis 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 ...
