Current slide {CURRENT_SLIDE} of {TOTAL_SLIDES}- Best Selling in Coffee Grinders
This is an excellent well built coffee grinder. The bean hopper and the grind container are glass, very sturdy. The dial selector has many grind selections. The outer casing is very nice in appearance. Machine is durable and last for years since I have 2. Con: Kitchenaid discontinue this model and there isnt any service for repairs if needed in the future. Expensive coffee grinder, and no service makes me feel Kitchenaid let me down. When a company creates a product like this, they should have a repair department so consumers who buy their products can keep enjoying them. Dissappointed in them.

I really like this grinder. The one thing that drives me crazy - about this one and the vintage tall older looking one from some years back - the static-electricity they generate and cause the flinging of coffee grounds all over the place. If simple instructions were included with these items, such as waiting a few minutes after grinding - or just tapping the glass container a couple times with a wooden brush handle, and using the brush to get the remaining grounds out of the hopper - it would make a world of difference. I would hope KitchenAid would also incorporate this idea and recommendation into their pamphlets that come with the items - they'd sell a lot more and have a lot more loyal customers!!!

Pluses: Well built, Heavy duty, easy to opperate, low RPM grind. Muh: Strange layout Minuses: Grinds no where near fine enough for a decent (non pressurized porta-filter) espresso machine, even after doing the Mazzer Mini burr upgrade. Noisey, top heavy (easy to tip over).

A friend of mine had one if these and I was amazed at how great it ground our morning coffee beans in the morning and I just HAD to have one. I am not disappointed! Might be a lot of money for just a "coffee grinder" but I am totally happy with my purchase. And, like Kathy Bates said in Fried Green Tomatoes..."I'm older and have more insurance (money)"π

I purchased this unit to replace my same model grinder. Was going to use the motor out of it but decided to just add the glass pieces and use as-is since it was in good shape. Works great.
