It is hard to find a grinder with all of the features you like in one machine. I have owned several Krups, but now the plastic cup on top is too shallow and if you grind a full amount you can't invert the ground coffee into the clear cup. Some have very inconvenient cord storage...often fraying dangerously at the point where they bend upon attaching to the grinder. I have tried the Melitta Burr grinder...the static electricity (a major consideration) made a mess every time I used it...gave it away. The top feels cheap on this Braun and it is noisy, but it does have all the features I need in one grinder and is an excellent bargain.
Works Speedily and Lasts a Long Time!

I've had my little grinder for more than 6 years now. I use it for grinding nuts (I'm not a coffee drinker) and I'm always amazed that it grinds everything so quickly and neatly. It was so easy to use that I even let my 5 year old help the last time I needed to grind almonds. The only thing is that it's hard to get every bit of ground stuff out... there's always a little bit of grounds left. I suppose I could get it out with a dental pick or a Q-tip or something, but a regular cleaning doesn't get it all. Other than that, it works great!
Great little grinder!

We received this coffee grinder as a gift about 5 years ago, and it's still going strong. It's fairly loud but quite fast: in only a few seconds, you can have aromatic, finely ground coffee, and nary a bean in the mix! It's true that the capacity is small, but I've never found this to be a problem, especially since the best coffee requires freshly ground beans. And although the unit is not dishwasher safe, I've never had a problem with cleanup either, as I just rinse out the plastic cup and use a damp paper towel to wipe out the interior. This inexpensive, easy-to-use tool is a perfect addition to your kitchen!
