KitchenAid BCG100ER Blade Coffee Grinder, Empire Red

I love this grinder. I have used 2-3 times a week now since 2004. Still works great and looks like new. The best part about this grinder is it comes apart for cleaning and washing when needed. I use it for fine grind too, my burr grinder couldn't hold up after a year and was a pain to clean. Love love this one.

I really like this coffee grinder. It is easy to use, even with arthritis, and It is great for quickly grinding up coffee beans, easy to clean ( I usually just wipe it out with a dry paper towel), or can be easily diassembled and washed in soap and water.
Very attractive, simple design, cheerful red color, ( my coffee maker and toaster are red too), very cute machine. Takes up very little space on counter top and low price.
Best part is, it not only grinds up coffee beans quite nicely, I use it to grind brown rice and barley to make hot cereal ( porridge).Works great on whole grains.(I grind up 1/2 cup at a time). Would recommend and/or buy as a gift.

This is my first experience with a coffee grinder, so take my recomendation with a grain of salt. Received this as a Christmas gift and have been very happy with it so far. Easy to load, easy to operate, easy to clean. The bowl is of sufficient size to make a full 12-cup pot in my automatic coffee maker. Plus it matches my other red KitchenAid appliances!! I know you can spend less on other brands and you can also spend much more. This is a good all-around grinder for the money.

KITCHENAID - YOUR PRODUCTS SHINE AS DOES THIS ONE! ONE QUESTION - KNOWING WELL THAT MOST OF YOUR CUSTOMERS USE THIS IN THE KITCHEN ON TILE COUNTERS - HOW IN THE WORLD WOULD YOU SHIP A PRODUCT WITH NO RUBBER FEET???? WHILE GRINDING, IT'S LIKE TRYING TO HOLD DOWN A HOCKEY PUCK!

My brand new Kitchen Aide broke this morning making it's first cup of coffee. It started just fine and then stopped grinding. I have nothing but coffee beans and no way to grind them. No coffee this morning for me. Very frustrating. I just started using Amazon last week but will avoid them from now on.
