Adds a touch of elegance to my kitchen countertop, complementing my other appliances beautifully
As a coffee lover who enjoys the ritual of grinding fresh beans each morning, I recently invested in the KitchenAid Blade Coffee Grinder in Onyx Black, and let me tell you, it has completely transformed my morning routine.
First and foremost, let’s talk about design. The sleek and stylish Onyx Black exterior adds a touch of elegance to my kitchen countertop, complementing my other appliances beautifully. The compact size makes it easy to store when not in use, yet it’s still substantial enough to feel durable and well-made.
Now, let’s dive into performance. This coffee grinder is an absolute powerhouse when it comes to grinding beans to perfection. The stainless steel blade effortlessly cuts through even the toughest beans, resulting in a consistent grind every time. Whether I’m brewing espresso, pour-over, or French press coffee, I can always count on this grinder to deliver the perfect grind size for my preferred brewing method.
One of the features I appreciate most is the versatility of this grinder. With a simple push-button operation, I can easily adjust the grind size to suit my needs, whether I’m craving a fine espresso grind or a coarser grind for my French press. The transparent lid allows me to monitor the grinding process, ensuring that I achieve the perfect consistency every time.
In terms of ease of use and cleanup, this grinder couldn’t be simpler. The removable stainless steel bowl is easy to clean and dishwasher safe, making cleanup a breeze. The compact size and cord storage feature also make it easy to tuck away when not in use, keeping my kitchen clutter-free and organized.
Overall, I couldn’t be happier with my purchase of the KitchenAid Blade Coffee Grinder in Onyx Black. Its stylish design, exceptional performance, and user-friendly features make it a standout addition to my kitchen arsenal. Whether you’re a coffee aficionado or simply enjoy a fresh cup of joe in the morning, this grinder is sure to elevate your coffee experience to new heights. Trust me, you won’t be disappointed!

Exceeded all expectations
I did quite a bit of research before purchasing this coffee mill. Even the expensive brands seemed to have poor reviews and the two main complaints in those reviews (not grinding all the beans and leaving chunks, and being too messy because there was not a removable cup) are NOT an issue with this model as far as I can tell. I’ve owned this about three weeks and couldn’t be more pleased, in fact it exceeded every expectation. When I saw the blades for the first time, I assumed it was going to also leave some chucks of unground beans in the receptacle. Never has it done that. The grind is perfectly even and fine. I was also surprised that it is relatively quiet when grinding. This unit is VERY easy to clean and not messy because the receptacle lifts out and you empty that into the coffee filter rather than turning over the whole unit. Plus, both the grinding receptacle and the lid can be washed so you could easily switch from grinding coffee beans one day to grinding some peppercorns the next. You could never do that with a coffee grinder that didn’t have a lift-out receptacle that you could throw in the dishwasher because there would be residual flavor in the receptacle. I have not tried grinding spices with it, but judging on how well it works with whole coffee beans I think it would do fine. I expected to like this unit, but thought I would have some of the same issues that other folks had experienced like the receptacle being somewhat difficult to lift out, or the lid getting covered with grounds. Honestly, each time I have used it the receptacle has been a piece of cake to lift out, I’ve had zero trouble with that. And even when I fill the receptacle full to grind a lot of beans I have yet to get the clear lid dirty with grinds. I realize I’m praising this thing to the point where it sounds perfect, but since I love it so far I really can’t think of a negative. It’s attractive on the counter too.
Update June 16, 2012 : Still 100% happy with this purchase. Even when I fill the reservoir full with beans and grind a lot at once, it never leaves any unground beans. Not even a small chunk remains, there is just a perfectly smooth, fine grind. And it grinds a full reservoir extremely fast (in mere SECONDS). I’ve put the removable reservoir in the dishwasher several times so far, no problem. I don’t wash it every day. I wash it about once a week. I’ve never had loose grounds on the countertop and it’s never made a mess, so I’m unsure why some reviews seem to say it made a mess. I’m being fully honest that I cannot think of a single thing that I dislike about this appliance. P.S. I don’t put the clear acrylic top in the dishwasher. It’s never dirty so I’ve never washed the lid, just the stainless steel bean reservoir.

Grinds beautifully
I love this grinder and use it to make datil pepper dust from my dried datil peppers. The value is great for the money and the quality is great. It is a little messy so I used parchment paper under it to get all the ground peppers.

Impressive Grinder, Excellent Value
I’ve used this grinder several times a week for a month or so and have been very impressed. For several years, I had used a blade grinder from another prestige brand, but when the last one failed shortly after the warranty, it was time to try something different. Thus far, the KitchenAid BCG111ER has proven to be an excellent choice and an excellent value.
The grind consistency is by far the best I have ever gotten from a blade grinder. I’m aware of all the hype regarding burr grinders, but my experience with them says they are too much of a PIA to clean, and I have never found the finished coffee to be better when burr ground. Maybe my taste buds are just not sufficiently sophisticated. The KitchenAid instructions provide recommended grind times for various brewing methods, and I have found them to be worthwhile guidance. I religiously follow their times when I grind and recommend doing so.
The top of the grinding bowl is sharp and could have been finished better. The lid also rattles when sitting idly in place, but when it is pushed down to grind, all the pieces fit snugly and works effortlessly. Both of those issues are minor and I am happy to overlook them. Finally, it cleans up easily and stores nicely out of the way. In a nutshell, it’s everything I want from a coffee grinder at a great price. I highly recommend it.

Gotta be KD like me! –
I never used to grind my own coffee until I discovered how much fresher and tastier it tastes than pre-ground bags of coffee from the grocery stores. I used to use a manual grinder but it gets tiring and can take awhile depending on how much you intend to grind.
My fiancé recommended I buy the same one as him as I could also buy a separate attachment for grinding spices and herbs (which is very important to me both as a baker and gardener).
I have not regretted buying this whatsoever as it makes grinding coffee an absolute breeze and unlike a previous electric grinder of a different brand that stopped working after two uses, this one is easy to clean as well as empty the grinds.
The only minor annoyance I have with this grinder is that the grinds at the bottom almost end up powdery if you use it too long or you don’t stop and stir the grinds around in between spurts of grinding.
Very pleased with this product and I highly recommend it to anyone who’s new to the world of grinding your own coffee beans!

This product stoped working after 2 months. I contacted the seller and their reply was this: “Dear Sir/Ma’am,
Apologies for the inconvenience,
The model of coffee grinder you are having is out of India model so this product we are unable to provide the service not under warranty or chargeable basis.
Kindly contact where you have purchased it they will assist you with that.” So this product does not have any technical support in India. Not worth buying it.
