Product Description

The key to great tasting coffee is freshly ground beans, and you can have this delicious flavor every morning with the De'Longhi Coffee Grinder. Durable and long lasting stainless steel blades grind any bean to perfection. Simply select your preferred setting with the grind selector, press the button on top of the lid, and remove your hand once your desired consistency is achieved. When grinding is complete, just remove the ground coffee container and pour directly into your coffee filter. It's that easy! If you want a specific amount of ground coffee, just use the quantity control knob and choose your selection. Cleaning is also a breeze with the convenient integrated brush. No worries about safety either with this grinder, once pressure is removed from the lid the blades stop turning. Other highlights include self contained cord storage for clutter free countertops.

5.0 out of 5 stars Love this grinder, October 24, 2010

This is the best coffee grinder I have ever owned. I really like that the plastic container comes out so you can deposit the freshly ground coffee beans into whatever coffee making apparatus you have without making a mess. The lights help guide you in determining the coarseness of the grind.
There was one trick to using this grinder which would address the previous reviewers comment...which is you have to push down on the back of the top (side by the brush) and not in the center were it says "push". If you do this you won't have to push hard at all.

This review is from: DeLonghi KG49 Electronic Coffee-Bean Grinder with 3 Grind Settings (Kitchen)

Bought this product after reading reviews of on [...]. After just the second time using it, it stopped working. A couple of other annoying features of the product are:

1. Have to press really hard on the cover to get the motor to start

2. Very poorly designed bottom dial that shows you what the setting is and how fine/coarse the grind will be.

Will never buy this product again and recommend others from doing so.

I bought this coffee grinder a few weeks ago and the first time I used it, it stopped working. I have since tried to contact the manufacturer, but their 800 number is always "busy with other customers". I will not buy any more of their products - bad design, non-existent service.
