I tend to grind 2 tablespoons at a time, and don't want a large grinder. I use it for herbs (black pepper, and other seeds mostly). I was specifically looking for a small grinder for herbs, before I found this. I wasn't really looking for a quiet grinder. I stumbled upon this in my search for a small grinder. Most grinders in this size range are portable, and that's not something I need. While this grinder is small, it's very high quality and very powerful.
I have used a lot of grinders and this is by far the quietest grinder, easily 1/10 the noise of other "quiet" grinders. The lid design gives it a double wall with air between when in use. Similar to how a double pain window works, this greatly reduces the noise.
The double wall design ensures that no dust escapes the grinder while grinding.
I have used this for very tiny seeds, much smaller than pepper, and it does a great job grinding them.
The "Vortex" design is great for small quantities as it causes all of the particles to form a tornado-like movement inside the grinder when in use. This gives it a very even grind, as all the particles are thrown around in the vortex, instead of having some sit on the bottom.
The power of the grinder is perfect for my use.
For my use, it's important that the grinding bowl is metal. Some seeds I grind are very tough and have scratched the sides of other grinders that had plastic bowls. The top is quite high up so it isn't really an issue that it's plastic. On other grinders that had plastic bowls and a plastic top, the tops never got scratched much, but the sides did. On grinders with glass, the glass broke eventually. Never use a grinder with glass parts. It's dangerous.
The grinding bowl is easily removed and easily cleaned. This is very important. I've had other grinders that were not so easily cleaned and had parts where particles would accumulate and were almost impossible to clean completely.
This is a blade grinder obviously. I have used steel burr grinders, and the main issue is that the burrs slowly wear down after every use (you ingest steel particles from that). Eventually you have to replace the burrs after a few years. If you buy a burr grinder that doesn't let you replace the burrs, you're buying a grinder that you'll throw away in a few years after the burrs ware out. Blade grinders don't have this wear issue nearly as bad as burrs do. I have blade grinders that are over 10 years old and they still work great.
I like that the cord can be wound around under the grinder, so that you can extend the cord to just the right length on your counter top so that you don't have a long cord dangling around your counter top. This is a must have feature in my opinion.
This also has overheating protection. Another must have feature. If you run it too long, and it overheats, it will temporarily shut down, preventing damage to the grinder. A lot of grinders don't have this feature and will simply be destroyed and rendered useless if this happens. Do not buy a grinder without this feature.
A good example of a grinder NOT TO BUY is the CUISINART Coffee Grinder DBM-8P1. The reasons are: burr grinder wears out and you can't get replacements; it's 100% impossible to clean all parts that come into contact with what you're grinding; it is rendered useless if it overheats; it's super noisy; it spits out dust while it's grinding, so you always need to clean up dust after each use. It's just plain awful. This grinder has none of those issues.
This is easily the best blade grinder in it's class and is highly recommended.
I bought this particular Krups coffee grinder mainly because my mom has one that is coming up on 20 years old. As the saying goes, "they just don't make em like they used to." Or do they? The answer is YES. Side by side comparison of the 20 year old white Krups, and my brand new black Krups revealed almost no difference. They are identical. You know what that means to me? It means the company knows they make a great product that lasts for years, so why change it? All I can say is I wish Krups made cars.
So, about the grinder... It is very simple and straightforward. A powerful machine with one purpose: to pulverize anything you put in it. I mainly use mine for coffee, but I also use it for spices occasionally. Normally I hand grind all my spices in a mortar and pestle. I have even used it to grind my home grown dry chili peppers to put in a shaker. It works beautifully! The only problem with that is cleaning, but its not fair to fault the machine for that. After all, it was meant for coffee beans. It does take a bit of work to clean it without damaging it. You can't exactly put it in the dishwasher. I used a dry toothbrush and toothpicks to pick out all the spicy mess. I assume I got it all out since I don't taste any chili pepper in my coffee. Heck, for 20 bucks, its worth buying a second one just for spices!
This is a great grinder! It is well built and very powerful! There is no doubt in my mind that this one will last 20+ years just like my moms!
UPDATE 2/2016! It's been about 4 years and this grinder is still going strong! I use it about 2 to 3 times daily. I haven't had one single problem with it, and I have not had to perform any sort of maintenance except for the occasional cleaning. I have noticed a few gripes from other reviewers that I would like to address:
1. Hard to pour the coffee into the coffee maker from the grinder. Really? Come on. Grind your coffee, turn the thing upside down with the lid on, give it a few taps, and pull the lid off in the upside down position. Now you have a nice little container of ground coffee to pour it into your machine. It's not brain surgery... you can do this. Give it a try!
2. Oval shape hinders the circular flow of beans while grinding. I have found this only matters when you overload the grinder. Keep it to level with the top and you're golden. If you're like me and insist on filling the thing with a huge heap, then do this: I solved this by pulsing the power button 5 or 6 times. While doing that, you can watch the grounds circulate top to bottom, not round and round. Either way, your beans still get pulverized, so who cares?
3. Comparing this unit to a high dollar burr grinder. NO! STOP IT! This is a $20 blender type (for lack of a better term) It's not a barrista's wet dream $300 burr grinder. It's just not, no matter how much you want it to be. If that's what you were expecting when you dropped a whole Jackson on this one, you must enjoy disappointment. It's like comparing apples to.. hmm... applesauce.. yeah, applesauce. Lets go with that.
4. Too loud. I saw one reviewer that described this unit as "deafeningly loud" which I had to chuckle at. Granted, it's not exactly quiet, but it's not "deafening" in any sense of the word. If you're one of those spastic drama queens who overly exaggerates everything, this one is not for you. The grinder is basically a drill motor with a tiny lawn mower blade on it. It's gonna make some noise. I'd say it's comparable to a hair dryer on low. I am rather biased on the noise level though. I work in a steel mill, so to me the noise level is no big deal. Take that for whatever it's worth to ya, but it's hardly deafening or I would most certainly be stone deaf by now.
I will update again sometime in the future! ta ta!
10 YEAR UPDATE!!! I have nothing to complain about.. literally nothing! This grinder still works just as good as the day it was new! Considering at least a pot a day sometimes more, we are talking over 3,650 uses. That also makes my moms grinder I mentioned 30 years old and hers is also still going strong. I challenge you to show me any product that lasts 10 years without a single problem. Some may say "Its not the years, its the mileage." which is true to an extent... however, I am not nice to this grinder.. Its not a once-in-a-while thing. Its had daily use since day one. We've been through a lot together and she's got a lottta rough miles on 'er... but the most important thing is she's still here and just won't give up.
Top reviews from other countries
I had purchased a cheaper grinder to replace my 30 year old Braun that finally died, but it was awkward to use and slow so I gave up and bought this one. The Krups feels much closer in feel and build quality to the old Braun.
Plugged it in first time - wasn't very quiet - then burnt out - smoke came out of it and it doesn't work. Tried to return it - paid for postage and it came back to me again undeliverable.
