by   suzukiscoot ,  Sep 13, 2008
Pros: 1 Year Warranty. Quiet. Fast. Consistent grind quality. Good value @ $60
Cons: None yet.
Review: 1 Year Warranty available via mail in or website. Quiet. Fast. Consistent grind quality. Value priced at $60. Although I just bought this product today, I think that we will enjoy a rather nice & long relationship of good coffee together. This ...

Grinding your way to contentment

by   carter66 ,  Feb 2, 2009
Pros: Good for the money. Takes up precious little counterspace. Elegant design aesthetic.
Cons: Printing on item could be clearer. Receptacle container needs improvement of operation.
The Bottom Line: Coffee snobs - ho hum all you want: This is a good grinder for the money!
Review: Like many Americans, I love my coffee in the morning. The feeling of caffeine running through my veins to wake me up and get me moving for the day is just what I need. Yet I am no coffee snob. I cannot taste the delicate, distinct ...

Should You Use The Krups Burr Grinder on Your Precious Coffee Beans?

by   davidmanning ,  Jan 3, 2009
Pros: inexpensive, replaceable, fine control settings, reasonably quiet
Cons: creates more coffee dust than I'd like
The Bottom Line: If your coffee snobbery hasn't yet grown to immense proportions, until it does this low-end Krups burr grinder will suit your needs.
Review: Short answer: a qualified Yes. Qualified, because if you have more money to spend on your coffee, there are much better options, but definitely, spend the money for a burr grinder, not a blade grinder.But this is Epinions, and a longer answer ...

Good for what it is - a cheap grinder that grinds well

by   randomroyalty ,  Jul 23, 2008
Pros: Consistent grind, quiet
Cons: Clogs easily with oily beans, static
The Bottom Line: Very good considering price, keeping in mind that good grinders are at least $300.
Review: When I bought my http://www1.epinions.com/conte nt_422888115844 I realized that my old Mr. Coffee blade grinder was not going to be up to snuff in producing a consistent grind fine enough for this machine. While many coffee purist sites say that you ...

Works but slow and static city

by   mike_ottawa ,  Jan 23, 2007
Pros: Good for home use. Good consistent grinding.
Cons: A little too slow and too much static
Review: I wanted a grinder that had good volume. This one does, but it is very slow. I wanted something for doing 12 pots a day but I would be grinding all the time. I also can't imagine how the coffee grinds would be scattered all over; the grinder generates a ...

Decent but Problematic

by   twilling ,  Mar 11, 2008
Pros: Styling, German engineering looks, cup and grind selector knobs
Cons: clogs or jam consistently, uneven grind. Quality control issues
The Bottom Line: Not recommended for daily use
Review: I have owned a few grinders in the past, (Braun KSM2 blade & Cuisinart DBM-8 burr) and I had high hopes for this model. Being the Krups brand with German engineering, I purchased this model from Macys November 2007 after donating my Cuisinart to my ...

Not great with oily beans and makes a mess

by   joelfire ,  Mar 1, 2008
Pros: The result is good
Cons: Slow, messy, has a hard time with oily beans
Review: If you like oily dark roasted beans like Peets, you need to constantly shake while grinding to get the burrs to "catch." Also, as another reviewer said, it makes a mess due to all the static. Those two things aside, it grinds well, but after using it for ...

The Worst

by   eas21 ,  Oct 13, 2008
Pros: easy to clean
Cons: Basically the entire machine.
The Bottom Line: this is junk. the beans don't feed into the burrs, the grind is inconsistent, the plastic parts break easily and it is very noisy
Review: I got this machine because of the name, the price and reputation of the brand. However, I soon discovered that buying this machine was a major mistake. Fromthe very beginning, the grind was very uneven, beans would not feed into the burrs, the selector ...

breaks very easily

by   jaabna ,  Jul 25, 2007
Pros: Looks nice.
Cons: Breaks easily, messy to use with the static.
Review: I bought this product on Friday from Macys. Used it twice and it broke. I brought it back and got another one. That one broke after one use. I am using Starbucks beans which I know are oilier but give me a break. It should not have broken this ...
