Product Description
Amazon.com Review
Large enough to grind up to 2-1/2 ounces of coffee beans (enough for 12 cups), this powerful grinder ensures that freshly ground coffee is quickly available, even for big coffeemakers in the office. The details are what make this grinder exceptional: The lid is transparent for monitoring the grind, and has two down-pointing ribs to guide beans toward the blades for even grinding. The design of the stainless-steel blades, combined with the 150-watt motor, means beans can be ground quickly without overheating and spoiling the coffee's taste. For safety, the grinder will not work unless the lid is securely in place and locked down. Finally, the power cord wraps around the grinder's bottom for neat storage. Clad in gleaming white, the grinder carries a one-year warranty against defects. --Fred Brack

5.0 out of 5 stars
Efficient operation and excellent value,
By Penumbra (Atlanta, GA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Braun KSM2-WH Aromatic Coffee Grinder, White (Kitchen)
My unit has been smoothly grinding coffee beans for over a year, and shows no signs of slowing down. If I had to replace this grinder tomorrow, I wouldn't hesitate to buy the same model again.
Yes, it is loud while it's grinding but the noise never lasts more than about 10 seconds. Often I just pulse it a few times for 2-3 seconds each. It's the smell of fresh coffee, not the sound of the grinder that gets our family out of bed in the morning. After a year I'm happy to report that the motor isn't evidencing any signs of fatigue, nor do the blades seem to be dulling. I'm not too hard on it though -- it's used less than half a minute every day. It never grinds anything harder than frozen coffee beans. And I never use anything wet or damp to clean the inside. After tapping out all of the freshly ground coffee, I wipe out any residual "coffee dust" with a dry paper towel. I feel that it's a very efficient coffee grinder, and an excellent value for the price. UPDATE: It's now March 2009, almost seven years after I wrote the above review. I'm still using the same coffee grinder every morning (and twice on Saturdays). It's held up fine and shows no signs of slowing down. The reliability has been excellent!

Except for the cheap feel it is perfect!,

This review is from: Braun KSM2-WH Aromatic Coffee Grinder, White (Kitchen)
It is hard to find a grinder with all of the features you like in one machine. I have owned several Krups, but now the plastic cup on top is too shallow and if you grind a full amount you can't invert the ground coffee into the clear cup. Some have very inconvenient cord storage...often fraying dangerously at the point where they bend upon attaching to the grinder. I have tried the Melitta Burr grinder...the static electricity (a major consideration) made a mess every time I used it...gave it away. The top feels cheap on this Braun and it is noisy, but it does have all the features I need in one grinder and is an excellent bargain.

It's simple. It's small. It can grind enough coffee for a large home pot.
I don't use it very often, but that's because I don't really make coffee that often. It gets the job done, and does it fairly quickly and painlessly. It's a bit noisy, but I think that's to be expected. After all, you're grinding coffee beans. I've strictly used this for coffee, not spices. I imagine it would do a fine job on spices as well, but given the smaller size of most spices, you should read a different review where someone has used it for that. However, if you do plan on grinding spices, buy 2. One for spices, one for coffee. The grinder is a little difficult to clean. It's not submersible, and the blade isn't removable. The top/lid is easy enough to clean (as it is submersible), but for the unit, I shake/tap it out onto a paper towel, and then use a new, damp paper towel to clean it out, and then dry it. The "not easy, though not quite difficult," clean-up is what makes this 4 out of 5 stars, instead of 5/5.
