Overview
A spice shelf or a counter beside the stove is where this small grinder works. Pressing the lid down starts the stainless steel blades, and a built-in interlock prevents operation unless the lid is securely in place.
Fresh spices and custom blends from a compact bowl, with a storage lid that holds the extra, make daily seasoning easy. The limit is the small capacity and the fact that it is a grinder, whatever the item-type entry says.
Who it's for
Home cooks who like freshly ground seeds and spice blends suit a grinder of this size. People who want chopping or large batches should use a food processor, which this is not.
Pros and cons
- Push-down lid starts grinding
- Removable stainless bowl
- Nonslip rubber feet
- Recipe book included
- Small bowl size
- Voltage entry looks wrong for US use
- Spices and nuts only
- Item type entry mislabels it
Performance notes
The blades are designed specifically for spices and nuts, and pressing the lid down with the lid locked starts them. Loading the right amount of spices matters for a clean grind. The interlock stops operation if the lid is not secure.
