DeLonghi KG79 isn't satisfactory 2 out of 5 stars.
1 of 2 people found this review helpful.

This grinder has the usual problem with plastic grinders. It builds up static electricity and the coffee both sticks to the grind holder and will also fly all over you and the counter. The square holder makes it unusually difficult to extract the coffee.

The range of fine to course doesn't generate course enough coffee for a French press. Be careful to follow the instructions for pre-cleaning and putting back the components. It needed a clean prior to use.

First Impression 5 out of 5 stars.

Just bought this a few days ago after reading and looking extensively. Used initially for only espresso and so far, so good. Next weekend it will get it's chance to show what it can do with french press. The fine setting yields consistently fine grounds. The reservoir for beans and ground coffee are both generous and hold enough to keep you 'jumpy' for quite a while. The smallest yield is 2 cups but that's too much for one espresso. It would be nice to yield just enough for one double espresso shot but that's a minor quibble. The machine does not vibrate or spray coffee grounds and you don't have to hold anything down while in operation. It's much quieter than the Krups blade grinder I've used for years and quieter than most others I've seen even much higher priced items. I also have the DeLonghi espresso machine so visually they make a nice pair.

Editorial Review:

For those who love the wonderful aroma and taste of freshly ground coffee, there's the DeLonghi coffee burr grinder. The burr grinding wheel produces a uniform ground texture for the most consistent results, and the grind selector lets you choose the perfect setting from coarse to fine. The quantity control knob allows you to grind up to 4-12 cups of coffee. Other highlights include dual safety system, on/off push button control and self-contained cord storage.

This is not a burr grinder 2 out of 5 stars.
9 of 10 people found this review helpful.

The La Pavoni PA-1402-B Electric Mill Grinder is classified as a burr grinder on Amazon, but it is NOT a burr grinder. If you read the description closely you could probably figure it out -- but a warning in case you only read reviews and found this by searching for burr grinders.

Editorial Review:

The La Pavoni black Mill Grinder is made of durable ABS plastic, and has a locking top. The stainless steel blade and chamber grinds beans, as well as spices. 2 year warranty on motor only.

I have a better grinder that cost $6 at our local cheapie market. 1 out of 5 stars.

Cuisinart. You think Cuisinart and you think "quality product," right? Think again, at least on this count. I have a lovely Cuisinart coffee maker and pots-and-pans set, as well as their wonderful fodd processor that has been chugging along for years. But this grinder really surprised me. The grinds were really uneven, some chunks being nearly whole beans, others ground within an inch of their molecular structure. And when I used it the second day, a few stray grinds came spewing out the side of the thing -- the seal wasn't tight if there were any leftover grinds from the last time. It feels chintzy and cheap, and I am promptly returning it. Bummer -- I thought Cuisinart made quality a priority.

Editorial Review:

A great cup of coffee requires freshly ground beans, and this coffee grinder quickly grinds enough to make up to 12 cups. Grind is controlled by the length of time pressure is applied to the cover. Easy to use, easy to clean, and made to last, the grinder features a stainless steel bowl and blades, on/off switch with safety interlock, and a transparent cover with measurement markings.

happy user of the Pavoni PGB 5 out of 5 stars.
3 of 3 people found this review helpful.

I have been using my PGB for about 10 years; it works very well with no problems. A great virtue of the model I have (hope this is still true) is the ability to grind directly into the espresso basket, turning on the machine with simple pressure from the basket; this enables one to grind just the coffee needed with no reservoir to empty or clean, and more assurance that a minimum of old ground coffee will join that which is freshly ground.

Another satisfied user of the La Pavoni PGB Coffee Grinder 5 out of 5 stars.

I'm quite satisfied with the excellent grind consistency and quality. The brass La Pavoni PGB Coffee Grinder is close to being a commercial grade burr grinder -- equal to those found in Europe's espresso bars and restaurants. Be aware that the brass finish is "plated" over hard plastic, so carefully inspect your new grinder before using it. I had to return mine twice to the retailer back east, before a perfect one arrived. I've used mine daily for more than three years without any issues.

Just a quick note to Patricia O'Connor who considered it "a piece of junk." With proper care & regular cleaning, the La Pavoni PGB Coffee Grinder will last a lifetime. -smile-
