robert ajaye: Love it I grind mostly coffee, but sometimes I grind spices or pepper or rock salt. Perfect device.

Alan: Lo utilizó diariamente para preparar café por las mañanas, hay que moler y luego agitar un poco y volver a moler para lograr que el grano quede mejor, de lo contrario quedarán fragmentos de café carentes de uniformidad.

Jillian: I like this product because it does not heat up when it grinds my coffee beans. I like the deepness of the well or capacity of it. What I don't like is it doesn't have the sort of windable cord retractor that I like. And I don't know why but one of the little grinder blades one points up one points down the one that points down broke off for some reason maybe it was a really hard coffee Bean. Anyhow I liked it so well I bought a second one. I recommend this product

Adam: The grinder has been working fine for months. Is the ground coffee coarser than store bought ground? Yes. Did it break? Not if don't over work the motor like instructions warn you. Does it compact a bit to the bottom? Yes but what do you want for 30 bucks, just loosen when emptying. Start with whole beans, make ground, the grounds make great coffee and that's why you would buy it.

Elle campbell: This is replacement of my Capresso grinder which I had for years, exactly the same as this new one but white. I use it for spices only, not coffee. It grinds well and I can always grind to suit, depending on how fine I need the spice.

Margot B: Size: I purchased this based on it being a smaller grinder as it is my backup grinder. We have a large burr grinder we use for espresso and it’s a pain to change the grind once it’s “dialed in” so we purchased this for French press and pour over ideas. It suits our purpose quite well and can hold about 3oz of beans without being over full. I read some reviewers say 10 Tbs another said 1/2 a cup. I would agree with those assessments too. It’s compact and the cord storage built in at the bottom is a big plus.

Design: I wanted a stainless interior and I am glad I got this unit. As another user mentioned, the lid fitting over the top of the grinder rather than tucking inside is a plus in my book too. It makes for easier clean up and seems like a better long term design. The clear lid and stainless interior make it easy to see what’s going on inside, whereas if the bottom were black plastic as is the case with many grinders, it would be harder to discern.

Grind: as advertised, this is not an adjustable grind. However, the longer you grind, the finer the grind will become. One user mentioned that the grind was inconsistent with some being finer and some...

The_Phantom: On the advice of a friend, I purchased this to grind spices. He told me that he tried a few different ones, including some of the big $$$ ones that cost $150 or more. After all was said and done, he said that this one was the best one he has ever owned and in fact, purchased two of them - one for coffee and one for spices. The only problem he ever had was with whole nutmegs. Aside from that, it worked great for him. And with that also being said, I bought one, too - just for spices (I'm not a coffee drinker). I use it to grind spices for making barbecue rubs. Grinding spices helps them penetrate the meat deeper and less spice is required to get the same flavor into the meat. To that end, this little grinder is fantastic and does the intended job wonderfully. Oh, and it does it for under $20, I don't think the price can be beat for the same quality, either. So, if you need a spice grinder, definitely consider this one, especially over those more expensive ones.

UPDATE 7/23/2018 - I have used this little guy a several times now and still have nothing to complain about. It works well, it works fast, and it does exactly what I needed it to do - grind spices up into a powder to...

Paul: I purchased this grinder to replace a Capresso model 501 which burned out after many years of daily use. It is used for only one purpose... to grind 3 kinds of seeds which are included in a daily nutritional smoothie. The first thing I noticed, when comparing it to the 501, was that it takes longer to process the material to the consistency I require. The new 505 also seems to heat the product more than the older model. The old 501 tended to compact the material at the bottom of the chamber and the new model is much better in that regard. It also operates more quietly than the old model. I have 2 other Capresso grinders which I use for other materials, coffee, herbs, etc... a 501 and a 505... which work perfectly. Overall, I'm pleased with all my Capresso products and would unhesitatingly recommend them for their overall performance, quality and durability.

Elena O.: No es desmontable por lo que se complica lo de la limpieza, es solo con un paño húmedo pero es muy bueno para el precio y no es tan ruidoso.
