Customer Ratings & Reviews

Needed something to grind flax seeds. The Best Buy salesman recommended this unit - and it saved us money over the unit we intended to buy,

This is my first Burr Mill grinder and what a difference over the stand standard grinders. I highly recommend this unit. Its easy to use and clean and makes for a great cup of coffee.

I thought twice before buying this grinder because of the mixed reviews. I ended up using my rewards points toward buying it so the grinder was practically free for me. So for free, I decided to get this grinder. At first when I tried it, it worked awesome. It grinded the coffee beans without a problem. It is convenient to load the bean holder (bowl) on top and not worry about filling it up every time I need to grind coffee beans. After about five uses, the grinder didn't grind because the beans were not coming down from the bowl. I poked the bottom of the bowl with a spoon to try to remove any jammed beans that were not allowing the beans to flow freely to the grinder. That seemed to fix the problem until the same thing happened again after another three uses. I got frustrated and wanted to throw the grinder as far as I could for being a piece of junk. After I calmed down with the help of a few Coronas, I got happy and gave the grinder another chance. I unscrewed the bowl (You have to screw on the bowl when setting it up for the first time) and removed a few beans that were on the grinding teeth. I gave the grinding teeth a good once over brushing with the small brush that comes with the grinder. After that, the grinder worked perfectly every time since. It is convenient to set the dial at the amount of coffee you want to grind so that you can place the ground coffee immediately in your coffee machine and have fresh coffee. The grinder only grinds the amount you set for it to grind and automatically turns off once it reaches that amount. This was the selling point for me. You don't have to press a button several times to grind your coffee to your liking, like with other grinders. This machine grinds the amount you want and at the size you want your coffee to be grinded in one press of a button. The blue light at the dial to measure how many cups you want to grind, is a little brighter than I would like but, it is not too bright to the point of annoying me. You do have to brush out some of the coffee from the container it falls to after you grind your coffee. It does spill a little coffee if you are not careful pouring the ground coffee to your coffee machine. I have decided to keep the grinder as I found the pros to outweigh the cons. I have owned this grinder for one month and have not had any problems since the initial ones. Hopefully it does not break down before the warranty is over. I definitely recommend giving this grinder a chance if you are patient. If you are not, then maybe this grinder is not for you.

Grinds very well. Container will actually hold a couple days worth. Container is a little hard to remove and it's a little difficult to try and remove all the coffee. Comes with brush and scoop. Scoop is way to small. Settings for grind type and cups is very easy to use. For the price; this item can't be beat.

I bought this coffee grinder because my Capresso burr grinder died on me after four short years. So I will be reviewing this new Mr. Coffee one, and compare it to the Capresso. First, this grinder is A LOT less expensive, that in itself makes it worth the purchase. The grinder is a bit noisy, but the Capresso was too (slightly less noisy). The design is nice, I like the blue LED light which tells you its plugged in and ready to go. This unit also has quite a few settings, designed for the type of coffee pot you have. I use a French Press, so its on that setting. It also has an adjustment for the amount of cups of coffee you are planning to make. Plus, the push button feature is easy, unlike the Capresso which had a dial you had to twist to the number of cups you are brewing. Overall, after adjusting it for the best settings for me, I would definitely recommend this unit.

The only thing even slightly negative I could say is that it is loud. I live in an apartment building where the walls are a bit thin so I try to grind my coffee the night before just in case. I have been using mine several times a day for a month. I have not had any issue with it as some have mentioned, I also took mine apart after a month to check. It is very easy to check or I might have skipped it. I bought it to replace a cheap grinder that only had one setting. Though it is louder it delivers in the many grind options. I have been ordering Jamaican Blue mountain coffee after someone mentioned it was the best coffee they had tried, don't think I could go back to regular coffee. I use a french press and buy the coffee from a company that buys and roasts coffee from all over the world, they are on ebay. Best coffee I have ever had in my life, even better than the Kona from Hawaii. Anyhow, I wanted a good grinder that did not break the bank. This delivers and had a really good price. I love it and would recommend it.

Excellent value for the money. I had one for 3 years, but something fell on it and it broke. Bought a second because of how much I liked it. Great for the price. Hard to get a burr grinder of value for the price, but this one is. Doesn't grind fine enough for espresso, but great for Drip, Perked, or even Turkish.

Very good grinding with enough bells and whistles (e. g. one button push for X-number of cups you want to set it for). Works like a charm, holds plenty of beans in its hopper, easy to clean. Not anywhere near as pricey as other products of the same ilk.

Great coffee grinder, especially for the price. Precise grinds per cup, easy to set differing grinds for brewing methods. Used small grinder prior to this one, converted it to a spice grinder.

My wife bought this for me. I love grinding my own coffee and this machine is perfect for that. You have several grinds you can use and it is very easy to use.

The Mr Coffee Burr Mill coffee bean grinder was purchased so I can make French Press coffee. I am a coffee lover and really enjoy making French Press (new to me) as the grinder makes the process so easy. It also has about 18 grind settings. It will grind anything from espresso (fine) to French Press (very coarse). About 18 settings.

There are 2 different kinds of grinders. The bad kind (blade), and the good kind (burr). This one ensures a good, consistent size of the grounds because it's a burr grinder. One of the cheapest. Go with this one.

This is my second grinder that I have purchased. I returned another brand that just did not work the way I wanted it to. This one is great. Especially with the different grind settings. I would definitely recommend.

I had a blade type grinder that didn't always grind the beans well and left nearly whole beans behind. This burr grinder is night and day better. I can choose how course or fine I want the grind to be. Get a perfect grind every time. There is some static in the bowl, but I have not used one anywhere that did not have any static. Also, the blue "ready" light can be annoying, but not horrible. Overall, this is a great beginner grinder that will not break the bank.

Does good job grinding beans for different types of coffee makers. Machine is a little large. Can be a little messy until you get the hang of emptying the ground beans.

This coffee grinder works great at producing a variation of grinds and varied cup amounts. From course to medium to fine and several grind sizes in between. It's perfect.

Love the grinder it can be used for coffee, spices, nuts etc., really works well.

If you are looking for a coffee grinder, this is a good burr grinder for a good price at Best Buy.

Great to make the most flavorful, aromatic coffee, best if paired with whole beans roasted less than two weeks before (check roast date, freshly roasted are not that hard to find, but you have to check) Burr produces more consistent grind sizes than blades. Has more grind sizes than the others. Easy to clean, and doesn't take up much room.

This Grinder is simple and easy to use. It's easy to clean and stores easily if you don't have a lot of counter space. Can gum up a bit if you grind beans that are oily. Running some rice through it will clean it right out. The price was also great. Highly recommend.
