Most helpful negative review
Really good grinder, not so hard to use.
"I was initially put off by comments on the web about how hard it was to use this unit, but it's actually not bad at all. Yes, the saucer shape is very wide and hard to grab, but if you keep the sliding door open you've suddenly got a nice surface to grab onto. Yes, the whole combination of grinder + receiving vessel can get wobbly if the fit isn't perfect but this can be overcome. I use this with a Jetboil PCS, ..." Read Full Review »

works great, at the end of a drill
"I bought this with the specific intent of mounting it at the end of a used cordless drill (that I also bought for the purpose). I see another reviewer here was disappointed with its "grind quality"; I've noticed that because the dark "lid" can bow, the size of the grinds will vary. If grinding by hand, I imagine this could very significantly. But at the end of a drill, it's consistent and quite satisfactory. Wi..." Read Full Review »

Grinds well, hard to use
- Compact
Pros
- Unstable
Cons
- Car Camping
Best Uses
"I want to start by stating that I'm a full blown coffee snob. This seemed like a nice simple toy to help get my outdoor mornings started. Beans that are kept whole stay fresh 4-5 times longer that grounds, and this was the answer to stale coffee at the end of a week long trip. It's not too big or …" Read Full Review »

Pros
- Slow Start
Cons
- Backcountry Camping
Best Uses
"This grinder is basically worthless in my opinion. I would rather pre-grind my beans than use this (which for me, is a huge no-no; yes, that bad). Why? First, it's pretty darn hard to use. If you don't have it inserted in a perfectly fitting French Press pot, then it's darn hard to hold on to an …" Read Full Review »

GSI JavaGRIND Coffee Grinder Review
Best (manual) travel grinder yet
- Durable
- Easy To Clean
- Stable
- Well made
Pros
- Bulky
Cons
- Car Camping
Best Uses
"Well made grinder, the ceramic burr works well. Only problem I find with the grinder is that it is hard to hold while grinding unless you have a container to hold that will fit tightly to the grinder. All things considered it is pretty efficient (grinding coffee is a labor of love!) "
