Started out messy - Pleased overall
4 out of 5 stars
Started out messy - Pleased overall
First impressions - Very good noise level and the grind was totally as expected. However, I sometimes noticed that coffee grounds escaped the inner lid (grinding cup cover) causing a bit of a mess. When I removed the outer lid (sound shield), some grounds would fall onto the kitchen counter and some grounds would fall into the base when I removed the grinding cup. This did not happen every time, but it was disappointing to have to clean up a mess.Noticing that there were two points in which the inner lid (grinding cup cover) can lock into place, I suspected that one of those points worked flawlessly while the other point allowed the grounds to escape. After a couple tests, this was confirmed. I marked the successful lock position (highlighted in picture). So, I had to figure out a workaround, but, now, it's the grinder I was hoping for.

    This is a GREAT coffee grinder! After purchasing two Hamilton Beach grinders that had declined in quality since the last one I owned, and were as loud as airplane engines, this one is far and away the best grinder out there.
    1. It's quiet. The sound shield really does work, it just emits a low grinding sound - you can carry on a conversation while it's operating.
    2. Easy to use. The inner lid locks easily and you just place the clear sound shield over it and press down. No fiddly little buttons, super easy!
    3. The inner metal grind bowl comes right out for cleaning, replace it by just dropping it back in its place. Nothing to snap, totally simple.
    4. Grinds evenly and fast - about 10 seconds for 2 tablespoons of beans.
    5. The cord is a good length, and there is capacity to wind it around under the unit. However, since I use it everyday I just wrap it around the grinder - it's not super easy to stow the cord, but the other features outweigh that slight inconvenience that I wouldn't drop the star rating for it!
    In short, BUY THIS GRINDER! It's an absolute winner!

  • Reviewed in the United States on January 15, 2025
    I'm extremely pleased with this grinder. Most coffee grinders sound like a rock polisher in a grain silo. This one isn't much louder than a phone vibrating on a couch cushion.
    Now, I'm obviously given to hyperbole, but for real, this thing is quiet.
    I wake up before the sun, and I can grind coffee without disturbing the rest of my family who wake up at a reasonable hour.
    Also, the blade cup and the two covers are dishwasher safe, or if you prefer to just use a barista brush, this feature makes it easier to clean.
    There is one thing coffee purists won't dig: It's a blade grinder instead of a burr grinder, but lack of decibels is the main thing here, not uniformity of grounds size.

    I've had this now for 3 months and I grind my coffee almost every day. It does have an extra plastic top so it muffles the sound of the grinder, but it is not 100% quiet. I would say its about 70% quieter than a regular grinder. The grind itself is good and it grinds fast. It is a quality product, not flimsy. The plastic is sturdy, as are the stainless steel blades. Its easy to work as I have arthritis in my hands. Its easy to clean either with a dish-cleaning wand or throw it in the dishwasher (top shelf) for a deep clean.

    After buying a coffee/spice grinder and returning it (there were residue coffee grounds left in it -obviously a return) I opted for this one and I'm glad I did. I really like that the bowl is removable for washing. I thought I would buy one for coffee and another for grinding flax seed and maybe spices, but if you can remove the bowl and get it thoroughly clean, I may not need to do that. So, right out of the box, I'm impressed with this. I also like the double cap which reduces the noise....well designed. Hopefully it will last for many years.
  • Reviewed in the United States on October 20, 2024
    I love the 3 containers it comes with and the quality of the materials. Not silent but much quieter than others I've owned. Love the safety features which make it pretty impossible to injure yourself or run it without the lids locked. The only issue is it is not made for espresso grind as it will clog. I use a classic Italian espresso pot on stove occasionally. But it's great for regular coffee makers.
  • Reviewed in the United States on January 16, 2025
    Product is very nice when it works - quiter than the average grinder. 6 months into ownership the inner cup cracked while tapping it against my fingers to loosen the grinds out. I contacted Hamilton Beach and after much delay and on the second attempt with customer service after first insinuating that I had somehow mistreated the device all they offered was a free shipping code. The replacement cup costs all of $2.99 (with $9.99 shipping for a piece of plastic that weights all of an ounce or two). Why be so stingy? Stand behind your product, especially when the cost would be so trivial.

    I bought this to replace my 10 year old Proctor Silex. Very glad the company still makes these small simple grinders. I like the small size and the simplicity. Another great feature is that everything disassembles and the main bowl with the blade comes out. Make it a ton easier to clean. I mainly use it for grinding spices and it works excellent. I have not used it to grind coffee.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Less noisy than others
    Reviewed in Canada on January 1, 2025
    I use this as a dedicated spice grinder. The result of the first grind (see pic) is just shy of a fine powder. This blend (Biryani masala) contains green & black cardamom, cumin, coriander, cloves, star anise, mace, black pepper, bay leaves, cinnamon, poppy seeds, dried red chillies, turmeric, and chilli powder. Since the instructions state it can’t handle bigger spices such as cinnamon, star anise, and cloves (see pic), I broke these into tiny pieces. This defeats the purpose because I had to first use a mortar and pestle!

    For an ultra fine powder (what the recipe needs), I have to regrind in smaller batches… not a big deal but it’s an extra step. My guess is a 4-blade design or a more powerful motor would work best.

    Overall, it’s easy to use, fast grind, with a much lower noise level than the others I’ve used. The best feature is the removable, easy to clean jar. Cord wound underneath for easy storage. I’m keeping it because of these features.
