This burr grinder is easy to use and easy to take apart to rinse/clean. It doesnt take too much elbow grease to grind the beans. I get a nice fresh grind in the morning. For my one or two cups, it is perfect. I use it with both my Chemex and my Frech press on the coarsest setting. I have been so happy with the results that I have not even used it for my Aeropress yet, but I will.
I had been looking at the more expensive metal burr grinder that has a ton of reviews and it rated super high. The 40+ was enough of a deterrent, that I did not pull the trigger. I was also a bit worried about the cleanup and the metal and the heaviness of the grinder. Then, I found this one for 18 with plastic parts. Sold! And I am glad I went for it. I think the metal one is taller and slimmer than this one, but it still doesnt take up much space. So that is good. It is intuitive how it works.
Stop reading this review. Buy the darn thing! It is well worth the money!
Exactly what I wanted
