Verified purchases don't even mean a thing, either. They can literally shill-ship crap to people with an address just so they can boost their posts.
Here's the real test: show me their website and show me that I can order replacement parts two years down the road. If I can't, that's because it's junk destined to be e-waste as soon as it breaks.
Hence, the downvotes: it's some Chinese garbage with an inflated price.

Here's my main issues:
- ALL dark roast beans I've tried (4 varieties) get stuck in the hopper. The only medium roast beans I currently have are dry and feed properly, but expect to be manually feeding beans everytime you grind if you want this to work.
- Coarse grind is too small for good cold brew
- Coarse grind is too inconsistent (the finer you go, the better consistency gets)
- The static cling is very real.
If you just want to make medium grind, medium roast coffee for drip, this might work fine, but if you want something with great variable control, great consistency, that just works when you press the button and doesn't have static cling issues, don't buy this.I reached out to the company, hoping device is bad or that they'd have some response around these issues...no answer. Too many issues for a "$70" grinder, so I'm going to return this and spend a bit more on something that will last that I can enjoy.
Yeah, a Baratza is way more, a Capresso and similar grinders are a bit more...but this isn't a deal, with this grinder you're lucky if you're getting what you pay for.
It's a little loud but I can just press the button and walk away. The hopper could be a bit bigger, but it's still better than having to fill it up every time.
I love it. No regrets.
