It does a fine job of grinding small batches of coffee beans or would probably be perfect for spices or flax seed, I haven't tried those. If I try to grind enough for a full pot at once I am left with probably half a Tbsp.or more of ground beans all over my counter. I think this is a fine little grinder. You must turn it upside down and use a brush to get the coffee out. I am returning mine for one that will grind a larger batch into a removable container. This is strictly a coffee grinder for me. Way too much work early in the morning.
It is quiet, fast and does a very nice job on fine grind, if you only brew up to four cups at a time, over that and you've got a mess on your hands. I do mean little. I pay a ridiculous price for my flavored decaf beans, can't afford to waste that much coffee. The one I bought is VERY messy and hard to get the ground coffee out of. The cord is so short you almost have to unplug it to do that. If it fits your needs it's a great buy. No more upside down for me.
We tried another grinder and had to return it because it couldn't grind the coffee fine enough. We like ours expresso ground for a strong cup of coffee and this Krups is able to do that. It's very high quality, grinds quickly, and is easy to get the ground coffee out of. Can't go wrong with this one.
It allows you to use foods you may have not used before, and that is the best attribute of an item like this. Use it for cacao, goji berries, nuts, flax seeds, etc. Does what it says. Buy it. It can handle it all. Never used it for spices, but if it can do cacao they I'd imagine it can do spices.Items like this allow you to branch out nutritional. Get on the net, and add some awesome foods to your diet. One of my better purchases for my kitchen.
This is a great compact coffee grinder that makes enough coffee for about 6-8 cups. Highly recommended.
Arrived quickly and works well. A bit of a pain to clean but otherwise great. A great value for the price.
