I am very disappointed with the coffee grinder; it does not grind well or evenly; it leaves whole beans unground even after 30 seconds; worst of all ground coffee is allowed to spill out of the reservoir cup and end up on the grinder itself, which makes a countertop mess when attempting to empty the cup. I went immediately out and bought a KitchenAid and a Krups grinder, both of which do a great job.
