Useless within 2 months : Revel CCM101,
By
This review is from: Revel 280 Watt Wet & Dry Blender Grinder Mixer 110 Volts (Electronics)
Completely agree with Phil. The plastic parts where the top pot and the base meet, have worn out within 2 months. There is no plastic anymore. And the chopper stands useless. What I am having is Revel-CCM101 model. Don't have any clue where I can get spare parts for it, or get it repaired. Any suggestions are welcome.

Completely inadequate design,

This review is from: Revel 280 Watt Wet & Dry Blender Grinder Mixer 110 Volts (Electronics)
At first sight, the basic design of this grinder appears sound, and at 280W it's got plenty of power. It handles spice-grinding tasks with ease, although extremely noisily. (It shrieks like a banshee. Consider buying some earplugs.)Unfortunately, you shouldn't expect it to do so more than about half a dozen times, maybe a dozen if you never grind more than about a tablespoon of spices at a time, because that's how long it takes the Revel grinder to either melt its nylon drive gear or wear through the bottom of its grind bowl. The blade mounting is simply dry plastic parts clamped together and spinning at high speed with no lubrication whatsoever. Crude doesn't begin to describe it - this grinder could almost have been intentionally designed to self-destruct, and it does so, quickly. If you're shopping for a spice grinder and intend to use it, I recommend ... almost anything but this one.

Great product with one caveat,
By SCD Mom (Zionsville, IN USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Revel 280 Watt Wet & Dry Blender Grinder Mixer 110 Volts (Electronics)
I have had two of these and I absolutely love them. Yes, it is noisy, but the grinding goes so quickly I don't mind putting up with the noise at all. The two main uses I have for this are: grinding toasted fennel seeds and finely chopping garlic. I have also blended up a garlic-and-spice paste in the bowl to season chicken. My caveat is: don't put the bowl in the dishwasher, no matter what the product description says. That is how I ruined both of my bowls. Over time the plastic coating gets water under it and then comes away from the bowl itself. Not very appetizing! I thought I had ruined the first one by letting vinegar sit in it, so I didn't do that with the second. Now I realize the culprit is the dishwasher. It would be fantastic if there were a way to just order replacement bowls, since the motor bases and covers are still in great shape. $35 is a bit steep when all I need is the bowl; but I may do it. I love this little grinder.
