IMAVO Manual Coffee Grinder, Wooden Coffee Bean Grinder with Cast Iron Hand Crank, Antique Design, Perfect for Home,Rustic,Coffee Shop Decoration,Gift

First and foremost, I love the look of it. Will look good in any kitchen, the vintage look just makes you want to use it. That part being out of the way, couple of things to point out, first being obvious. IT IS A MANUAL!!!! means you have to do the work! a few comments I have seen about these is that they want the look without doing the work, it is to hard. yeah, it takes work, but it makes your coffee taste better knowing you worked for it. yes, it is made in china, but still a great look, and so far great working product. biggest downfall is the size. It is smaller then expected, and the collection box does not hold much. 100 turns on the finest setting gets about 1 tablespoon worth. To be able to get enough to fill my Bialetti 5.7 moka pot, I have to crank it 300 times before i can start my coffee. I am sure one day I will get tired of it, but for now, i love it. Biggest mislead on this was the material. seems only the circular crank handle is metal, the rest is plastic. it does wobble around a little bit, but not much, and yes, the gears are plastic as well. but it turns smoothly. and the center post is metal, but the fill box is plastic but looks cast iron. Overall, if you don't mind a little extra work in the morning, and want something stylish in your kitchen, this one is the one to go for, and for the price, you can not beat it.

Bought for a gift and had to return due to them already having it. But they said they do love this item and that it’s cute and works good.

It works as it is supposed to. This coffe (or spice) grinder is more ergonomic for some, as the handle moves on a vertical circle vs a horizontal one. Smooth and steady will drop all the coffee in the drawer, but excessive speed or jerking can be sloppy. Som e plastic parts, not all iron, with ceramic burr... we'll see how long the plastic lasts. Overall, functional and decorative. Adjusting grind can be a bit fiddly, but that's the way this design is.

This product looks good and functions well. Be sure to adjust the grind setting before using. (see instructions) Frankly I got tired of having to buy an electric grinder once or twice a year, either because I would drop the plastic cap and break it or just wear it out from daily use. I have been grinding my own coffee beans for many years and even when I have to buy ground coffee because they were out of beans, I would still have to grind them further for my cappuccino machine.

Update: Ordered a second one on 10/8 and it's 11/19. The plastic gears once again jammed and stripped. Knowing this was a possibility we were very careful in not forcing it when a bean made it slow down. It's sad it looks so neat but isn't worth the money if you can't trust the main action part of the equipment. Looks pretty but not worth it for grinding actual coffee beans. My husband has 2-3 cups of coffee a day. This was purchased as a fathers day gift June 2024 for him. We love the vintage look considering we didn't have the spare means to buy the original Italian version of this which is all metal for $400. The gears are PLASTIC. The rest of the housing is metal/cast iron (minus the woods base of course). From June 16, 2024 - October 8, 2024 this has worked great. It needed a little snugging up every so often but no big deal. Today (10/8) while grinding he noticed it was hard to turn and saw the top gear was all mangled and smashed together. Other than pushing it back on the counter we don't mess with it, and nothing really rattled around, so I can only blame this on the fact plastic should be used as the most important part of the machinery. We love the look of this and it works great up until this happened. We don't want an electric grinder, and I re-ordered another one of the exact same thing since it's Prime Deal day and I will have it tomorrow. However I will be on the lookout for an all metal version even if it is $400. At least that will last a life time.

I really like this thing as a novelty device. It looks cool and it does grind coffee (slowly). I didn't expect it to be super efficient or have a large capacity, but my main concern is that there is a bar holding the gears and the shaft connected to the grinding element together that takes all the force of these elements when in operation. This bar is made of plastic where the rest of the unit is wood or metal, and I can see it bending and flexing when I'm grinding coffee beans. It hasn't broken yet, but it's only a matter of time. I've taken measurements of it so I can 3D print a replacement part when it does fail, but it would really benefit the customer if the manufacturer would make this out of metal.

If you need a grinder in case the power goes out this is a functioning grinder machine that works really well! Wish it had a heavier base to help weight it down but in a hurricane this thing became my best friend in the morning!

Product looks great but very difficult to use. Needs to be mounted on top of something to hold still while grinding your coffee. Hard to hold and grind. Hurts hands to do so. It does ground up your coffee beans but again you have to hold unit while turning the wheel and screws have to be tightened so ever so often.

コーヒー豆を挽く際にハンドルにかかる負荷が大きくかなり重い（ギヤの構造が悪いのか？）、このため木製の台座とミル部分を固定するねじに大きな負荷がかかり木製台座側の固定ねじのねじ山がつぶれて抜けてしまい、ガタつきが大きすぎて豆が引けず使用できなくなった。固定ねじも大きな負荷がかかるのにねじ部分が4～5ミリ系のものが2本しかついていない。さらに高ひーまめ投入口の蓋もねじ1本でしか止めっていないカラーもついていないので1回開閉しただけでゆるくなりハンドルを回した振動で空いてしまい危険。 豆は細かくちゃんと引けていたので我慢ハンドルの回転が重くても豆の固さの問題だろうと使用していたが 本他の強度がまるで雑なことが判明しました。購入される方はよく注意されたほうがよいでしょう。私は今回の半値以下でも再び購入はまずありえません。
