works great. two electric oven allow different baking. gas top burners heats up food quickly. from Ajmadison.com Great burr grinder. It broke one month after I bought it, but it was promptly replaced by kitchen aide without questions. from Cooking.com A little pricey but worth it. Looks great and works even better. Bought this to replace a plastic burr grinder from another maker (which replaced a blade grinder). As much of an improvement as the first burr grinder was over the blade grinder, the KitchenAid grinder is that much better than the other burr grinder. from Cooking.com Well, the grinder is cool looking and by all initial appearances is built like a brick sh--uh, well, you know, it is solid and sturdy and seems like it's something your kids will eventually fight over when they divy up the estate. But after 10 months' use, my wife couldn't take it anymore and shelved the thing--we start using a Capresso burr grinder tomorow a.m. and I'll be trying out the "no hassle return" feature soon. from Amazon.com We just keep it on medium all the time. I love the look of it- kind of retro- but if I had it to do over again, I would buy a better quality... Kind of surprising too since KitchenAid is such a reputable brand. from Amazon.com We use it everyday, and after a couple of weeks, we started experiencing problems with bits of coffee shooting out, as described by many owners. Grr. WM Flanik described how to fix slippage with the burrs, and M. Plichta identified problems with static electricity. from Amazon.com The problem: Many note how the grinder periodically begins shooting out coarse bits of beans instead of grinding properly. Mine too did that quite often. The problem with mine--and I imagine this is the design flaw to which so many reviewers allude--is that the bottom cutting burr became loosened from the metal base that spins it. I would venture that this means that the motor cannot get enough 'traction' on the beans, and consequently the burrs slip and slide across the bean surface rather than grinding into it. from Amazon.com It makes no difference how often it is cleaned. It is expensive and now after 6 months it is broken. I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER KITCHENAID PRODUCT AGAIN! from Amazon.com Motor made a high pitched sound and blew coffee all over. I dismantled the whole unit - it then worked for about 2 days. I called Kitchenaid - (they are right about no hassle warranty) They quickly sent me out a new one. This new one lasted about 6 months - and now has the same symptoms. from Amazon.com I've wanted one of these for along time but the other reviews scared me off. However, today is my birthday and I got an unexpected surprise. My son bought me this KitchenAid Burr Coffee Mill. I went straight to the store and bought some beans, pluged it in and let her rip. from Amazon.com
