This grinder looks suspiciously like the old Breville BCG450XL, enough to make me wonder if Brim ripped off the design or bought the old tooling to manufacture it. If that's the case then it should be a good deal at $35 for drip, French press, etc. but don't expect it to do much else.
The plastic grounds basket is prone to static like any other plastic one. Dropped it once and the hinge to one side of the lid broke which was still usable but even more of a pain.
Ultimately I upgraded to the Oxo which gets very good reviews and it's been a game changer - much more useful with a more consistent grind, hopper that can be filled and metal grounds container with a pouring spout in the lid.
It did cost about 2x as much but I love it. I dropped off the Brim at Goodwill - it's still usable for those willing to work around the flaws.

Will work OK for espresso and just fine for most everything else:

I ended up returning the normcore and use the 1Zpresso more than my Orphan Espresso Pharos which I also recommend for espresso, but is grossly more expensive and not all that much better IMO than the 1Zpresso.
Good luck on your espresso journey.
