 Not Quite Worth It! November 29, 2008
Richard P (Ft. Lauderdale, FL)
I have owned this machine for two years. Now when I purchased it the price was $30 but now its $50. but its the same machine. Don't get me wrong it is functional but there are some problems: First there is a lot of static electircity which makes you constantly have to clean it and it does get messy. Also, and heres the most annoying part, it gets clogged very week. This means that each week I have to take it apart and clean out the clog, clean up the subsequent mess, and then put it back together again. And then it is loud but for the minute or so that its, so what.
Now for $30, the hassles are excusable but $50...........its the same model and probably with the same problems. My advice..........spend a little more and get something better!
 Good and loud November 23, 2008

So far I like this machine. It grinds well and fairly consistently. It is, however by far the noisiest contraption in the house. It sounds more like it's grinding rocks than coffee. Maybe it has to do with the morning quiet, but it's LOUD. So I walk into the room, fire it up and leave while it does it's thing. Not a problem with static like the Krups grinder it replaced. All in all I'm happy with this grinder.

I owned a Braun grinder for 10 years and decided to replace it. After reading all the reviews extensively, which contained some conflicting information, I selected this Lello Ariete model. Unfortunately most of the negative comments turned out to be correct. My belief now is that $40-50 is simply too little to pay for a grinder and expect great quality and functionality.
Specifically the problems were:
- Product is indeed very LOUD much to my family's chagrin each morning. Similar to a gas lawn mower in volume...probably 100-110 decibels.
- The unit died after one month. Bad connection in the plug.
- There is significant static electricity in the hopper.
- The hopper is odd shaped and hard to clean.
- A nonsensical set of buttons & lights that control how much to grind.
I just purchased the Capresso 560.01 Infinity Burr Grinder to hopefully reach a better tier in grinders. I'm paying hundreds per year in coffee, so why not invest in better quality.
 Perfect when you are brainless in the morning.... or evening! October 17, 2008

This is my first electric burr grinder. Great price, built well...and honestly, I don't remember my life pre-Ariete Burr now. Easy to clean, and sturdy plastic collection cup and hopper.
The grinds come out cool, even, and is just perfect when you get up in the morning and don't want to "think" of measurements. It grinds 2-10 cups (for 5 oz. liquid measurement I find).
The only thing I would love to see this company change is that the hopper holding the beans would be a stainless steel or some other type of material that is not see through. I think it would be neat to just let the beans sit in the hopper between grinds to help those little beans keep fresh.
cool little gizmo October 17, 2008

I bought this with the coffee maker I recently reviewed. I like it because it is like set it and forget it. Get up, push the button while filling the water and your good to go. Does make quite a a bit of noise but that's the way it goes. I find it more uniformed grind than the spice mill blade type grinder and it is easy to change the grind when I perk coffee.
