Sea330,
I've had one for about 3 years. I bought it refurbished and it works great. I needed a grinder for my sales to the churches I work with. It has never missed a beat. I've probably ground close to 300-400 pounds through it. It is not for personal use, however for drip, french press, etc. I'm sure it would be fine. If you are looking for a personal grinder and are doing espresso or vac pot I'd go another direction. Grinding for sales with it is great. It is large and heavy.
hope that helps, Jim
