I was somehow expecting a bigger jar, but it turned out to be much smaller. Anyways, I and my spouse had made up our mind to return but we thought of giving it a try.
What we were looking for primarily is:
- Being able to grind chutneys (Coconut or Cilantro)
- Grinding wet almonds
- Size for 4 people
- Occasional spice grinding
Here is my feedback after 7 runs so far (mostly WET).
- NOISE: The grinder is NOT too loud to interrupt people watching TV in the nearby living room but not too silent either. (Rating: **** )
- SPEED & SHARPNESS: I have been grinding wet almond (+ some water) with some seedless dates in it and it does the job but not the perfect way. I could still see chunks of almonds in the gravy. We have tried both wet coconut chutney and cilantro + chilli chutney and both turned out great. We were not even expecting that nice results.
(Rating: ***** )
- SIZE: I think if you are looking for a small family or a couple this is the appropriate size. Attached is an image comparing Iphone 7 to the jars. (Rating: ***** )
- RUN: We ensured as pointed out in other reviews to not run for more than 20 secs at a time and we stuck to that and faced NO burning smells or anything like that so far. (Rating: ***** )
- DESIGN: This is where I feel the product needs improvement. The id of the jar is certainly not designed the best and I have to press hard while grinding to make sure it doesn't spill out on the sides. I wish instead of a glass shaped lid there had been a proper lid. Every time I do wet grinding I can see some water spills and reaching the base causing a worry if liquid seeping inside. (Rating: *** )
- CLEANUP: We just rinse out the jar and the lid without much effort. But additional cleanup is required due to the wet grinding spills. (Rating: **** )
OVERALL feedback is RECOMMENDED if you are:
- wet grinding for chutneys (Indian)
- looking for something sufficient for 2-4 people
- dry seeds, spices, almond grinding etc
- okay to do minor cleanups after wet grinding
I will probably update again in 2 months or so.
I was in the market for a wet and dry grinder/mixie after my magic bullet broke nearly after a decade of good use. Something to make coconut chutneys, ginger garlic chilli paste etc. Did not want to invest in a Ninja,Blendtec, preeti etc because I already have a blender and a processor and I am happy with them. Also wanted to move away from plastic jars. This little genie is a wonder! It really took under 30 seconds to grind almost whole nutmegs to a reasonably fine pwd altho there was one out of 4 that ground to 3/4ths and I did not want to push the unit beyond its 30 second limit it has so advertised. Ginger garlic pasted was good too, again in an instant. I will most likely update after a few months of use. So far so good!
We have only used this once so far but it really seems like it will do whatever we need. We grind peanuts to make our own peanut butter and it worked like a charm. The deciding factor for us was that there are two small bowls, one with a single blade and one with 2 blades. We figured the double blade would be best for grinding nuts. It worked like a charm.
Nice quality grinder. I bought it to replace my spice grinder. This does an excellent job of grinding everything to a nice powder. The cup on top is large enough for several spices to be ground at once and does it very quickly. One cup is meant for moist applications and does pink pepper extremely well. Easy and fast clean up is a major plus.
I tried it twice so far and it works really well.! I wish it was a little bigger in size of 3 cups or more.! I would like to suggest the manufacuturer to produce bigger size machine! I bought this mainly for grinding chutnies and ginger-garlic paste in a bulk quantity. So it is little too small for that purpose. But I still like it since it does a good job getting a small quantity done.!!

Its a perfect grinder for grinding . making chutneys and nuts.It's beautiful compact and has modern design. Stainless steel containers are awesome and are very easy to clean. Containers are of perfect size, big enough to make chutneys for a week. Love it!!
Previously had a cuisinart grinder - lasted for several years and did just fine but the blade on that model was elevated a bit from the bottom of the grinder cup and had a plastic middle piece (that broke). This grinder solved my problems and grinds coffee MUCH better than my old grinder. The blades themselves lift slightly off the ginder cup bottom but the middle of the blade is secured to the grinder cup with metal, not plastic. EXCELLENT results thus far and highly recommend for the price. *Note* haven't even used the bonus chopper cup yet either. This thing really is top-notch.
We bought this product to grind garlic, dry hot peper and coffee bean. We tried this several times so far so good. Because this is a small size grinder, it only takes about 20 seconds to finish the job each time. But the result coming out is fine. For small family and those who few cooking at home, this machine is right for you. It is also very easy to carry with you when you go to travel. It is easy to clean.
I'm delighted by how easy it is to use and clean this, and how confident I can be in both wet and dry grinding.
Admittedly done more of the wet, used to make a couple chutneys (and grind a couple small bits of spice for them), and the results have been lovely. I cook for myself and one or two guests, typically, and the size is perfect, and the price is remarkable given all that.
I will say I was able to grind small amounts of cumin seed handily, and I think getting a small amount of spices nicely powdered is perhaps more impressive than doing so to a larger amount, so unless there's a surprise when I try to do more later, I think this speaks well of the dry capacity as well.
And I already dropped the plastic cover once, onto a fairly hard floor from a low counter height, and not a scratch! I don't recommend this test (too many variables!), but I've had some covers like this that just took any opportunity to crack or shatter, so that also reassures me.
An actual pleasure to use, and the results have been wonderful.
This grinder was well constructed. The cups were easily twisted on and off. I ordered this because I had problem removing the top cover of my old one due to arthritis on my fingers which was a common design for most coffee grinders. Finally found this one and it could also a small chopper that I could chop onion ,garlic or ginger for my home cooking. The pretty design looks good with all my stainless steel kitchen appliances and small gadgets too. That is a plus!
