SHARDOR Conical Burr Espresso Coffee Grinder Electric with Precision Timer 2.0, Touchscreen Adjustable Burr Mill with 51 Precise Settings for Home Use, Anti-static, Stainless Steel

Despite this grinder taking a while to get in, this product is AMAZING! So affordable for a coffee grinder and it does an amazing job. I’ve worked with more expensive “name brand” coffee grinders and this one feels to be the exact same quality. It’s not too loud and is so fast. I usually use it to grind espresso and it does a fantastic job. The grind settings are really self explanatory and very accurate in my opinion. It’s not too big or heavy either. The container also holds a standard bag of coffee beans but the machine is small enough to fit on my kitchen counter with ease. Very easy to clean too. I don’t think I could have gotten a better grinder for this cheap.

Awesome burr grinder. This thing is a perfect addition to my coffee nook. I can adjust the grind setting, amount of time to grind, and configure to simply grind directly into portafilter or a seal-able container. It does recommend to tap on the top of the device a few seconds before it finishes, just to knock down the grounds that tend to stick, but I've noticed this does tend to make the amount inconsistent. I'm not fine tuned on how my coffee is, but this is something worth noting. I enjoy that almost every component can come off for cleaning. I also very much like that the attachments to change for portafilter or container are magnetic.

This has been a reliable, cost effective grinder. Controls are easy to figure out. It just can't get a fine enough grind to pull a shot with proper crema extraction in an open bottom portafilter and standard cup. I tested the finest setting on this grinder in a Breville Bambino with Normcore portafilter (yes we are a booshie I.T. office with our coffee habit) we have at work. No crema. This will work great with a double walled pressurized cup in your portafilter. I'm cheap in my home setup that I had to buy myself with a Casabrews CM5418 and this grinder and get the same results as my work Breville. If you don't care about espresso shots then get this grinder. I want to use standard espresso cups that aren't pressurized so I will eventually have to upgrade to a Breville grinder. But not today.

This innovative yet simple coffee grinder was a great upgrade from my blade coffee grinder. I am using a Breville Precision brew drip coffee maker and have been desiring a quality burr grinder to pair with it that didn’t cost as much as a professional level coffee grinder to pair with it. I believe I found the perfect match.This grinder uses same design principles as larger pro grinders just on a smaller scale. The hopper is quite innovative as it has a small bean gate built into the bottom to avoid spilling beans during burr cleaning process (which also has a very clear 14 step instruction near back of the manual). The hopper also included a very curious bellows attachment, which is simple but brilliant to help “puff” grinds out of the burrs for cleaning, but I use at the end of grinding to help maintain a clean burr to reduce the required cleaning.The operation of the grinder actually helps me portion the right amount for my coffee maker using the same units as the coffee maker (cups of coffee), which eliminates the need for measurement of beans. I just set for the matching amount of water in my coffee maker, select my grind preference and hit start. It’s so great!Time will tell if this grinder holds up without l breakdown or failure, but for now, I’m really excited about this addition to my coffee station.

I typically like to wait a bit before leaving my reviews. I've had the unit now for 4 months. I've enjoyed it quite a bit. There are a few quirks I'd wish were different but otherwise I can't really complain. I'm not aware of how to cancel out of a mode once you have started, i.e. I want a little hot water, once I start the water I can turn it off and on, but no go to another mode without turning the whole unit off. Not a big deal, but a little odd.But it makes good espresso, coffee, milk wand is great, and it has a heating tray on top. Overall this is a good little unit if you want something under $100 that does not take up a lot of space!

I bought this to replace a Breville Smart Grinder Pro that has developed a bad squeal, perhaps from worn bearings. I only use it for drip coffee with a Technivorm Moccamaster as a have a superautomatic Gaggia for espresso.The grind appears consistent and there is much less/almost no spurious grinds. It even comes with a bellows. And of course the price is good - most others with these features are $200-250.While you can customize the grind time for a cup, the one annoying thing is the shortest time is 3s, which doesn’t let me match the cups on the Moccamaster to the grinder (2.3s would deliver 55g per liter of coffee). So a full 10 cup pot is set to 8 on the grinder, half pot is 4. Sometimes I need to do math if I want to make a different amount.

With the price being relatively so low, the quality of this grinder is surprisingly good. Not too noisy, fine grind for espresso was well-uniform, and the material it is made of does not appear or feel cheap. It is easy to use. The only downside is that you cannot use a dosing funnel on the portafilter when the portafilter cradle is installed. I have to use the grinder without the cradle so I can use the dosing funnel.

Produces decent results but really hard to keep clean. The button to engage the grinder when a portafilter is inserted is tiny and hard to engage. This grinder comes with two mounts for portafilters, neither fits my Breville Bambino Plus, one of the most popular espresso machines on the market.To avoid overflows which make a mess and waste coffee, be sure to reset the grind time after the unit is unplugged.
