SHARDOR Coffee Grinder Electric Burr Coffee Grinder with Adjustable Timer Automatic Espresso Grinderfor Espresso Drip,French Press

Pro: I really like the digital timer, it makes grinding daily much more precise. I have a cup one from mochamaster and only grind for one cup at a time, this is a great product for that use, the grind size is very consistent. The anti static works well, but dont ever wash it if you want it to stay anti static (wipe only). It is also VERY quiet, I am impressed at how quiet it is compared to my previous version. Con: The container is WAY too small if you are grinding for a 10 or 12 cup machine (why 4 stars not 5) you will need multiple batches, there is zero reason for it to be so small there is plenty of unused room on the base for the container to be wider. The hopper is also a bit smaller than I like, I have to fill it too often. It also has an annoying rubberish plug to seal it up that seems pointless and it just gets in the way, I removed it almost instantly. This is my second conical grinder from shardor, the first one had an issue, and shardor was great about getting a replacement. Very good customer service. Other than the first "con" the rest are nitpicking. Im quite happy with is and would not hesitate to buy it again, from previous experience with customer service from these folks they are really excellent at standing behind their products and take care of their customers, I wish more companies were as good.

I just bought this grinder to use for making my own espresso grounds since the grounds I was buying were going stale before I could use them all. I have only used this a handful of times, but I mostly find it to be really decent quality, and very easy to use! It is still a bit noisy for my taste, but I will also say that I don't have to plug my ears to use it like I did with my previous coffee grinder. It does a GREAT job grinding really fine espresso, in fact it does almost too good a job, and I had to set the fineness lower than the suggested setting because my espresso machine was not strong enough to push the water through the finer grounds. I only grind as much as I need at one time, but from the looks of it the hopper would probably hold an average small bag of coffee beans in the top without any trouble. My only REAL complaint - and the reason for four stars - is that the container that catches the grounds does not fit snugly in place and actually vibrates forward and misaligns, which seems like a pretty obvious design flaw considering you wouldn't be able to start the grinder and walk away. I have to stand and hold the catching container the whole time in order for it to stay put. That being said, it grinds quickly (I do about 3 tablespoons of beans at a time in 25-30 seconds) so waiting and holding the bottom receptacle is a small price to pay for how well this works. It does exactly what I needed it to do, and only took me about three tries to get everything just right, so the price is very reasonable compared to a lot of similar products.

I love this coffee grinder. It works SO well. I know we could have spent more on one that has the espresso cup fit directly to it, but I love this one. It's not super messy if you buy the attachment that fits to said espresso cup to help keep the grounds from spilling out, I love that we can grind for both our pot or the espresso machine, the fresh ground coffee smell is SO good every morning. I'm so glad we purchased it. Have been using for over a year and it's a dream.

It is working without issues. The only part that is not nice is the lid where the grind coffee arrives. It does not latch and when you are going to pour the grind coffee, it splashes.

I’ve been very happy with this grinder so far. The design is beautiful, it feels solid, and it was very easy to assemble right out of the box. The hopper capacity is also generous, which I appreciate. In terms of performance, it has exceeded my expectations. I’ve used it mainly for French press and moka pot so far: French press: grind setting 40 – 15g of coffee in about 11 seconds Moka pot: grind setting 16 – 15g in around 25 seconds In both cases the grind consistency was excellent and very uniform. Another positive surprise was the noise level. Of course it makes some sound like any grinder, but it’s relatively quiet. In fact, I used it early in the morning and it did not wake up my 3-year-old child, which says a lot. The reason I’m giving 4 stars instead of 5 is due to a couple of small details that could easily be improved: First, the main screen arrived with some scratches. Shipping was fast, but this could likely be prevented by adding a simple protective plastic film during packaging. Second, the included cleaning brush feels a bit underwhelming. The bristles are quite stiff and sparse, which makes it harder to remove coffee particles from the burrs. A brush with softer and denser bristles would work better. It would also be great if the grinder had a dedicated place to store the brush. I’ve seen other grinders where the lid has a small internal hook to hold it, which makes maintenance more convenient. Overall, despite these minor issues, I’m very happy with the purchase. It’s not the cheapest grinder, but the build quality, grind consistency, and performance make it a worthwhile investment.
