The grind quality is good, I will give it that, but this grinder is surprisingly loud. It's quite disruptive in the morning, making it hard to have a quiet start to the day. The noise level definitely makes me hesitate to use it sometimes.
This grinder produces a noticeably superior grind for my daily French press. The clarity of flavor is incredible, and the machine feels incredibly durable due to its steel construction. It's a substantial upgrade to my coffee bar.
The grind consistency is fantastic, but it does leave a bit of static sometimes.
Grinds well, but it's much louder than I expected for a grinder in this category.
I expected much more for the price. The noise level is incredibly high, making early morning grinding unbearable. Additionally, the doser seems to frequently jam with certain beans, which is frustrating. Not what I hoped for at all.
