I bought this and even for $5 it wasn't worth it. Lots of better ones on Amazon available. I usually make 2 cups of coffee at a time and the grinds were spilling all over the place.

Ask any real coffee aficiano, and they will tell you the grinder, by far, is more important than the espresso machine or coffee maker. Chopper grinders chop very unevenly. They make large and tiny pieces. The pieces are shaped like splinters, bringing another level of unevenness. The tips of the splinters and the tiny pieces over extract bringing bitterness. The larger sizes and ends under extracts which gives a grassy flavor. So you have the whole spectrum of flavors; that's not a good thing. It also wastes coffee because it doesn't extract it all. Chopping grinders also do not partially crush the pieces like burr grinders do.

Expect to pay a lot for a grinder, be it for coffee or espresso. Just get the right on on sale. Know basic facts, like an espresso grinder is not necessarily going to make a good grind for coffee and a coffee grinder is certainly not going to make good grinds for espresso.

My advice is start researching the in and outs of a good grinder so you're ready when you see one on Slickdeals. If you get a good serviceable grinder you canhave it for 15 years easy. If you get a grinder at a good price it's excellent for even people who don't drink coffee much. As for this deal, whatever. It's not hard to enjoy even meh coffee. I have a barely-good-enough coffee grinder and I couldn't imagine having one any worse. That would be horrible. On the other hand I can enjoy some so-called Bad Coffee. Like the coffee at the car dealership in those funny machines I enjoy that coffee even if it's weird in a fetish way.
Good luck.

Yeah. 1/8 cup capacity seems awfully small.

either buy a better grinder or just buy pre-ground
This is the worst of both worlds. Hassle of grinding coffee, without any taste benefit

Is this good for grinding spices? I normally pound with a mortar and pestle but it's slow.

At this price it's worth getting as spice grinder and not having to clean my coffee grinder everytime

Price is good but the grind from these things is garbage. May as well just get a small food processor and it'll do the same thing plus be more useful. Those are usually around $10.

i use these for spice grinding. i've noticed that most of my pre-ground spices have diminished in flavor significantly. now i just buy the seeds and grind into powder in 5 seconds flat.

This thing looks so small even in their promotional video on youtube it seems that fits 12 beans of coffee: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XJXfOctZba4
