Mine died this morning. Anyone got recommendations for a good one? Not looking to break the bank either, but I won't cheap out.
I need a new coffee grinder!

this is more, but it produces a much better grind:

That's a bit more than I'm willing to spend. Just a bit. I french press all my coffee, is the grind quality really that important?
Good budget grinder, buy it at a local Target so you don't have to pay for shipping:

I've had good luck with these and - the grind bucket is detachable and thus easy to clean - this lets me use it to grind spices without making food taste like coffee or coffee taste like food.

Coffee grinders are like bikes.
Is a Turner worth the premium over a Huffy? It all depends on how much you like riding...

Yeah, um...no.
I have a Mazzer Mini. Odddly, it's the only thing I've bought ever has ever appreciated in value. I think I paid about $295 for it 6 years ago. It's almost $700 now. Again, if you think your Mr. Coffee stands up to it, you're the idiot who thinks that a Huffy and Turner are the same.
Who forecast the the best investment would have been to buy Italian coffee grinders?
Ordered this one... I'll let you know:

And yes, it's fairly important for French Press if you like consistency - it's very hard with a blade grinder in my experience to get a grind that is at ALL uniform in particle size. There's always powder which will muck up the press brew.

I said my Mr. Coffee mill stands up to more expensive ones. Like a Huffy standing up to a dept store Schwinn or Mongoose.
For what it is, it works great. The motor is fast and powerful and it has good capacity for a cheap, basic rotary mill. It was a gift too, I didn't even pay the $20 it originally sold for and I've had 9 years of daily use out of it.
You spent almost $300 to grind coffee. Who's the idiot?
Cone filter: insert beans in blade mill and count to 9.
French press: count to 7.
If you are worried about fine particles then you need to have your vag sewn shut.
