What the testers found

Reviewed's Best Overall grinder: "The OXO Brew Conical Brew Grinder is the best overall grinder we've ever tested." Its container "resists static cling," and testers found "virtually no ground coffee accumulated in the chute." The testers disagree on fine grinds: Reviewed says it goes down to espresso, while Homes & Gardens found it "not ideal for fine grinds" and "wouldn't use this for Turkish coffee or espresso." At about 13 inches tall it "takes up more space than many other grinders." The listing doesn't state a warranty.
