"It automates hand grinding for a very low price, but struggles with the actual grinding."
The '38 Adjustable Grind Settings' offer a wide theoretical range, but the underpowered motor cannot provide the torque required for fine grinds or hard beans, rendering much of that range unusable in practice.
This is for someone who exclusively drinks medium or dark roast coffee, uses a forgiving brew method like French press, and wants to replace manual grinding for the absolute lowest possible price. Speed and longevity must not be primary concerns.
Anyone who drinks light roast coffee or wants to explore espresso should avoid this device. A quality manual hand grinder at the same price will provide a better, more consistent grind and last significantly longer, albeit with physical effort.
