Disadvantages:
- The black part is too smooth, so you can not hold the mill or need great power in your hands to prevent slipping. My wife has not done it! I've helped me with a piece of carpet Stopper I drum lege. That would have been easy to improve with a corrugated shape or a non-slip plastic.
- The fineness adjusted to the grinding gradually by itself; there is no scale to memorize a setting found.
- It turns a wolf! Approximately 70 to 80 revolutions for a cup of espresso! The spoils in the long run the fun of coffee.
- Electrostatic charging of the lower tank pulls the coffee high on the wall, when you open up every bit of ground coffee distributed in the area.
Conclusion: okay as an introduction or as a mobile device for the holidays. For continuous use is not recommended.
Meanwhile, I have but then the money invested for an electric mill (a Eureka) - which was a relief! The milling quality and thus crema and flavor have clearly gained.
