Excellent long term Burr Grinder !
This review is about the "old" version of this Mr. Coffee Burr Grinder that is still available.I purchased this one, due to the fact that I had my other one for 14 years, used it daily and it was excellent ! That's why when it no longer ground fine enough (after 14 years !) for my Mr. Coffee Espresso machine, I simply gave it to my boyfriend who now uses it to grind beans for his Mr. Coffee Drip machine !He loves going from preground store bought to freshly ground coffee for his morning brew ! It still looks new and looks nice on his counter ! Why pay more when you can have this excellent grinder from a company that KNOWS coffee well for only $29.95 ?

Excellent item!
This coffee grinder is absolutely a great value to your money. It's inexpensive, powerful, and it will last you for a long time. Remember this: this item is to gring small amounts of coffee at a time (8 oz). If you push it to grind larger amounts of coffee it will overheat and stop grinding automatically. Once it cools down it will work again, but you should avoid getting there bc it will affect the flavors of your coffee.

For the money, this is a good start to a nice entry level espresso station.
A fine grinder for the budget barrista.Update: 1/3/2017. After nearly a year of constant use, this grinder is still going full force. I am so glad I skipped buying the Breville. Not so much against the Breville, but rather a testament to the fact that this grinder is all I need. The Breville would have been overkillIf works fantastically with my DeLonghi pressurized portafilter espresso machine, and my Black and Decker single cup maker. My son and I drink coffee regularly so it is fired up several times a day. If it failed tomorrow I would not hesitate to repurchase it. Best grinder I've owned and greatly exceeded my expectations. Back to the regular review, already in progress.Here's the good, the bad, and the ugly.GOOD:- Price. $35.00 is dirt cheap for a burr grinder. This isn't much more than a small blade grinder and it's so much nicer.- Burr Grinding: Yes, it's not a conical burr grinder, but a burr grinder is much better than a blade grinder- Dosing. Choose the number of cups you want and push the button. Each "cup" equates to approximately 1 Tablespoon of Beans except for the Espresso setting (more on that in the "bad"). This is unbelievably convenient. I can grind the exact amount I need for my Espresso or my single cup drip maker and get freshly ground coffee with each cup without having to count seconds or try to convert seconds to cups, etc....The "cups" guide works great (6oz per "cup") and it's easy to adjust up or down according to taste.- Easy selection for choosing grind strength. Simply rotate the beans hopper to the proper setting and viola. This is done due to the top burr being a part of the bean hopper (more than that on the ugly). Thus you simply rotate the bean hopper to the desired setting and it adjusts the gap between the burrs. Detents positively let you know when you are on the desired setting and each setting is clearly labeled.BAD:- About that Espresso, the manual tells you to set it to 3 cups for a 2 oz shot and 5 cups for 4 oz. That right there tells you that they are referring to their little Mr.Coffee steam espresso machine. Which also should tell you that this grinder will not grind fine enough for a pump machine with an unpressurized portafilter. I have a DeLohghi EC155 and the espresso setting works great for that machine, but your mileage may vary. Odd's are if you have a high end Espresso maker, you won't want to cheap out on a 35 dollar grinder. So just keep in mind what you are mating this thing with.- Noisy: It's relatively noisy. It's not super annoying since my kitchen is downstairs, and I'm single. But I can imagine that people might not appreciate the noise from the grinder.- Inconsistent Grind. As is typical for this type of grinder, you will get some powder, and it will accumulate in your grounds chamber. If you use paper filters, this will keep the powder from appearing in your coffee. It is a design flaw of this machine, and while it's to be expected, it can be prevented or lived with.- The Blue LED. It's bright, but as others said, simply move the grounds cup about 1/4 inch out and the light goes out. Easy work around.THE UGLY:- OH THE MESS: The biggest drawback of the machine is the mess. Transferring the contents of the grinds cup to your filter or portafilter can be messy. Grinds tend to stick to the side of the container and then end up on the counter/sink/wherever.- Cleaning: This has to do with the bean hopper, it's screwed into the body of the grinder and it is actually the mount point for the top burr. So if you want to clean the burrs, you have to unscrew the hopper, which means you have to empty the beans. This is a bit of a chore, and on more than one occasions as I was attempting to transfer the beans to a secondary container, the top lid came off and beans all over the counter.These two items alone almost forced me into buying a Breville Smart Grinder, but it's $200+ price tag made me take a step back. After careful consideration, the bean dump and my own laziness makes the mess a bigger issue than it needs to be. I can take steps to secure the beans prior to cleaning the device, and if I'm careful with removing the grounds, I don't have to spread them over the kitchen.The Breville is most likely a much superior grinder, but is it 6 times better, and will I appreciate it 6 times as much, or will I stress over paying over $200.00 for a grinder. At this point my inner miser is telling me to be more careful.For me, this and the DeLonghi are more than enough for now. If it dies in the near future, then I may have to spring for a pricer grinder, but right now it does exactly what I want for a price that's hard to beat.

Doesn't use "real" conical grinder
I just wrote a blog post with a detailed review of this coffee maker as compared to three separate burr grinders (including a 7 minute video):<..>Below is the text of the review (if you copy & paste the URL above, you'll get pictures & can watch the video, etc.)I'm exploring how to make great coffee.The thing about making great coffee is that it means something different to everyone. Here's what it means to me: The coffee is dark and flavorful. It doesn't taste like it's watered down. It has a great aroma and makes me smile when I drink it. I guess this blog is really about how to maximize the `smile' factor.I'm no coffee pro or snob. Just a guy who wants better-than-average coffee. My colleague Jeremia, who knows a heck of a lot more about coffee than I do, just informed me the other day that the lighter blends actually have more caffeine than darker blends, because the caffeine is roasted out of coffee the longer it roasts. Now there's a guy who knows his coffee. To thank him for that pearl of knowledge, I just bought him some raw Luwak coffee, straight from Indonesia. We'll see what he does with that bad boy.Today I tested three burr coffee grinders to figure out which one was best: the Capresso 560 Infinity Conical Burr Grinder , Bodum Bistro Electric Burr Coffee Grinder, and Mr. Coffee BVMC-BMH23 Automatic Burr Mill Grinder . Previously we had been using the Capresso 464.05 CoffeeTeam GS 10-Cup Digital Coffeemaker with Conical Burr Grinder but the coffee just wasn't coming out with enough flavor.So here's the new plan: Test these 3 burr grinders, pick the one that grinds the best coffee, and then use a Zojirushi Premium Thermal 1.85 liter Carafe, Brushed Stainless Steel carafe along with a No. 6 filter size plastic filter cone (which fits perfectly inside that model carafe) and boil water on the stove to run through it. (My guess is that the CoffeeTeam GS didn't make "high smile factor coffee" because it didn't ge the water hot enough. Just speculation on my part though, all I can say is that it wasn't as good).This new plan is actually going back to the old plan -- my wife and I were boiling water and running it through the filter cone + carafe before with great "smile factor" results, but the burr grinder we had been using, the Black & Decker CBM210 Stainless Steel Burr Coffee Mill/Grinder , was a pain because we had to hold the button down while it was grinding. It also made inconsistent sized grounds. So after trying the CoffeeTeam GS because I thought it'd be easier (wake up timer!) I'm back to the manual original burr grinder + boiling water + filter cone + carafe approach. This time, hopefully, with a better burr grinder.The winner for me was the Bodum Bistro Electric Burr Coffee Grinder because of its hardened steel burr grinding mechanism, ability to easily turn it on & off, and glass holder receptacle. The Capresso 560 Infinity Conical Burr Grinder was quieter, but annoyingly, the timer can't be stopped -- you have to wait for it to time out. The Mr. Coffee BVMC-BMH23 Automatic Burr Mill Grinder was a total fail because of its inferior burr grinder design.Please leave your own opinions and comments on my blog. Especially if you have tips on how to make higher smile factor coffee. Oh and by the way, I put agave sweetener in my coffee instead of sugar (available at Costco). Lower glycemic index = happier body.

Excellent product!
I absolutely love this product! I would highly recommend. It gives you the option to do different levels of grind and lets you grind as much or as little as you'd like.

Works great.
Works great! Love that it holds a lot of beans. My husband accidently bought beans instead of ground. Will keep using it.
