Wal-Mart is not the seller. Use caution.
Trust me, one of the most important things you can do is get fresh coffee (whole bean, roasted within the last 6 months... pref 3 if possible). Then you need a grinder for it... the nicer the grinder the more consistent your grind size. Think of this like cooking vegetables... if you were to chop potatoes into random size chunks, it is nearly impossible to get them all "cooked" to the same doneness. Normally you don't want this, and the same thing applies to coffee brewing.
Methods like french press are more forgiving, but others... not so much. Underextracted coffee is sour. Overextracted coffee is bitter and astringent. Just like with the potato example, its easier to hit the sweet spot if your grounds are generally the same size rather than large boulders and a ton of fines.
EDIT: Also, 100% agree with DiMAn0684 about this not being a capable espresso grinder. This is probably a step up from using old, stale coffee for drip, pour over, or french press (especially this one) but espresso requires as much evenness as possible and a VERY fine grind setting. You're putting coffee under high pressure, if the grinds aren't fine enough, water is just going to flow through and you're going to get a very sour shot. Water also will flow through the path of least resistance, so an uneven grind (like what you'd get with this) would lead to most water going through a couple of spots (channeling) and barely flowing through the rest.

Anyone know the quality of manufacturer warranty or CS?

- Quick detach burrs for easy cleaning
- Straight through grind path for low retention
- Can grind directly into filter basket/portafilter for convenience and reduced mess
- Button trigger for portafilter dosing
- Low (450rpm) burr speed for reduced noise and heat build-up
- It can grind at least fine enough for pressurized espresso without modification, much finer than the Sboly
One version is currently $31.99 with free Amazon shipping. [amazon.com]Edit: Coincidentally this Sboly was in James Hoffmann's latest video [youtu.be].

That grinder has small flat burrs [youtube.com]. Those really just pulverize the beans and create a lot of fines even when set coarsely. Conical burrs are much better in inexpensive grinders as long as the rest of the grinder isn't junk.

People who aren't actual coffee snobs will be fine with this. If you're on the insufferable level (like me) this is going to be woefully inadequate.
