Mindkoo Manual Coffee Grinders Ceramic Burr Hand Crank Grinding Mill (Grey)

I've used it twice so far, so not tons of exposure. However, it seems to work as advertised. I wonder if I have an improved version, because many reviews mention wobble in the grinder but I don't see any sign of that.I found it was slightly time-consuming to set the grind when I first used it, but it seems like once I get it right it should stay right. The grind was consistent and it was easy to get the grinds out of the jar. I also appreciate the little rubber lid that goes on top, which prevents accidental dumping of beans if you lose your grip and tip the grinder over.Operation is a lot quieter than my electric grinder, and since the product falls free of the grinder mechanism, it seems more consistent in size than my electric.

After seeing the favorable reviews, I decided to purchase this grinder to replace one of the smaller stainless steel ones seen for sale here. This Mindkoo grinder fits the bill. Not only does it have a larger capacity, but it's larger diameter makes the grinding process easier on my carpal tunnel, since it is easier to grip. The longer handle also helps in this process and it does not take as long to grind your coffee. You can either hold the unit or place it on a counter and it will stay in place because of the silicon bottom. It seems well made and should last a while. I recommend shopping prices on this - there are several with prices high to low, but it is basically the same grinder.

This is my first coffee grinder and I've been quite pleased with it. I've been able to get a good, coarse grind from whole coffee beans to use in my coffee press--fresh ground coffee is incredible! I've also used the grinder on whole cloves when I needed ground ones for a recipe. It did a superb job on the cloves. I love the compact size and it's easy to take apart to clean. If I ever wear this one out, I'd definitely buy a second one.

It does what it's supposed to do, but it's just not great at it. The grounds come out pretty irregular for me - a geologist would call them poorly sorted. I was hoping for a more even grind but the inner burr just wobbles too much. So while it's kinda okay for pour-over coffee, I wouldn't use this with a French press or espresso maker. Adjusting the (approximate) size of the grounds is tricky as well, since you have to take the whole thing apart. In all, while it's something I'd want to have on hand in case of nuclear apocalypse, I'd recommend looking for something better.

It's pretty good! Cute and easy to use. The only thing is that it didn't come with instructions so it took me a while to figure out how to adjust the grind size.

It grinds coffee very well, but I would prefer an electric motor. Grinding manually is too much work. Not the manufacturer's fault of course, just a preference as it takes too long to grind for my tastes. This type of grinder makes the beans grind perfectly, unlike a blade which will over grind a coffee bean.

Even though I haven't used it yet, I'm really impressed. It looks and feels just like a mill I gave my son for Christmas. The mill I gave him cost about 30% more. If they were side by side you couldn't tell the difference!

My first coffee grinder. Nice solid construction, and smooth movement, and simple to use. Would recommend.
