A fine grinder.
The grind is very even, but I wish it would go just a little coarser (I use a french press). There is some fine dust produced, but I don't mind coffee with some texture!
The controls are wonderfully integrated and very intuitive:
1. turn the hopper to select the grind size
2. turn the timer knob to start
It is a little louder than I expected - but it's lower pitched than a blade grinder and really not bothersome.
The container for the grounds is a little larger than my french press which makes pouring the grounds a little tricky. Sometimes the container builds up a static charge that sends some coffee jumping out onto the countertop.
Capresso people - if you are listening - please enlarge the hopper to take a full pound of beans! it only holds about 3/4 lb meaning i have to find an airtight container to hold the rest.
Overall I recommend it, and it is surely worth the price. If I was to spend more money on a grinder I would try out some higher end grinders to find one that fixes a few of the niggles I mentioned above.
