Meh, it's okay. I bought it for Melita style pour overs. It's pretty heavy, built well, and grinds fast for any particular setting compared to cheaper ceramic burrs. I haven't sieved it but I don't see much "mud" left in the filters. Has pretty good capacity too. The glass jar hasn't been an issue. The problem is it only has six settings (1=fine, 6=coarse). I use #3 setting which is the "meh" part. Number 2 was bitter while #4 was flat. Number 3 is close to my mark but I can't go either side to dial it in. At this price point it is worth four stars.

It works great! Handle is easy to turn, and the grinds come out perfect. I use it for my french press and have absolutely no complaints. Amazing quality for price

Far nicer than antiicipated. The six grind levels are very reasonable for what this grinder is made to do, and the resulting grinds have been very consistent. It is simple to use, with a normal level of grind effort and speed. The finish of the product looks fantastic, I do hope it is as durable as it is handsome. Sweet storage bag, too.

This is a quality coffee grinder. I have been impressed with how adjustable the grind can be and how quickly it grinds the beans. It is easy to clean and to disassemble and store. I have had this grinder for over a year and have had no complaints.

I usually don't write reviews but I am so pleased! I had been searching online for a good coffee grinder until my eyes felt numb and finally settled on this one because, with this price, the risk wasn't too high. It works great and I am able to get the fine grind I want. Previously, I had a frustrating experience with an electric grinder that was expensive - barely worked, hard to use, cleaning it was very involved, only worked in 20 second increments so took a while to grind the beans, was clunky and messy. This grinder is small/easy to store, not messy, easy to use. It is manual so does take time and effort but to me its worth it. I am a cup a day coffee drinker so I don't mind. I just wanted something reliable!

For the price of $50 Vevok Chef Manual Coffee Grinder is a great entry level grinder. The build quality feels premium, it has beautiful finish and grinding experience feels smooth. The unboxing was very elegant and the packaging was well put together. I love that I can get a premium feeling hand grinder with steel burrs at this price and it actually performs well. I usually grind for pour over/filter with grind setting 4 but occasionally I would grind for my moka pot with grind setting 2. Though my experience is limited as this my first canonical burr grinder, it's a huge step up from my blade grinder and I get well balance cups of coffee.The cons:Honestly at this price it would be a surprise to not having any cons but the cons aren't too major for me.1. It's a stepped grinder, so if you want more granularity you might have to tinker with the internal construction. Not a big deal at this price point and I'm not grinding for espresso.2. I love the visual design of the grind setting and how easy it is to change BUT I've noticed that the settings can slip while I'm grind if I'm not holding the setting ring as I grind. Not sure why it slips sometimes if you're not holding it but this should be looked at by the product engineers.3. The little container/hopper for the beans is very small. Depending on how much you're grinding, you might have to keep another container nearby to hold the beans you're going to grind.Besides it being a stepped grinder, the setting slippage and the tiny hopper, it's a fantastic entry level hand grinder!

I thoroughly enjoy my coffee more so than when I bought pre-ground. I can set it to the correct setting for my espresso machine and it tastes better than buying it pre-ground. Plus, it tastes fresher, since coffee beans, once ground, will dry out faster than as a whole bean, regardless of the storage container. You can fill up the upper section twice before filling the glass jar it comes with. I would NOT recommend grinding over a larger container, it will make a mess. I also would NOT recommend using a drill / driver to drive the grinder, as it is not only NOT made for that, but it also is not any faster if you do that. It doesn't pull the beans in. If you don't want to put in the manual effort to grind beans, it would be no surprise that kind of person would not enjoy this grinder. But I find it easy to use, transport, and it does a good job. The walnut handle is a nice touch. The only complaint I could make is that my hand slips off every once in a while, or my other hand rotates the grind size.

Great design - the hand held knob curvature is detailed well not only for aesthetics, but ergonomics. It is easy to grind and maintain. Love it.

Update, 06/29/2020:My only nitpick with this otherwise excellent grinder was the lack of replacement receptacles. Lo and behold, the supplier now has replacement receptacles at a very good price. Great, high value grinder backed by a very responsive, customer service oriented manufacturer/supplier. Happy customer..Original review:After disassembling it to take a look, I have to say I was pleasantly surprised. The steel burr is sharp and the tolerances of the assembly confidence inspiring. The adjustment ring didn't have a particularly smooth action at first but gently and firmly cycling it back and forth a few times resulted in a smoother action.After thoroughly cleaning it while disassembled, I put it together and gave it a try. At it's finest setting which is 1, I got a very consistent and finely ground result. Increasing the setting up the range resulted in a consistently coarser grind. Nice. The crank mechanism is smooth, doesn't 'wiggle' and has plenty of leverage making grinding very easy. Only once did the beans stop feeding but a simple shake took care of it.A couple things to expect:The crank isn't locked in place. This is by design. To fill the chamber with coffee beans, you lift off the crank. When reaching for this on a counter top for example, always pick it up by the body, not the crank. Given that this has a glass receptacle, this makes handling especially important. As far as I can tell, the supplier does not yet sell replacement jars/receptacles. If and when they do, I hope they offer a larger size as an option to the original size. In spite of a potentially fragile glass receptacle, I like it. It's easy to see when to stop grinding and the receptacle is dishwasher safe.Fine grinds require more grinding. Grinding at setting 1 will take significantly longer than at 6. At setting 1 it can seem as if the beans aren't feeding but they are. At this setting, you'll wind up with a powdery result. Higher settings will result in faster grinds. 3 seems to be the sweet spot for pour over but this is a personal preference. With 6 grind types, there's probably a favorite for everyone.Pros:Very high value for a grinder with a good quality *steel* burr. Comparable grinders with steel burrs are at least 30-40% more. Some far more. Most burr grinders at this price point and below have ceramic burrs that can chip, break and are less precise. Grinders with steel burrs are sharper and likely to last indefinitely. I can't imagine it gets much better than this without going to a motorized burr grinder. Aside from cost, the downside of a motorized burr grinder is that it will disconnect you from the experience of grinding your own beans. I find that grinding my own seems to enhance my enjoyment of coffee.Cons:Nothing significant. If I had to find one thing I did not like, it would be the lack of replacement receptacles. If the one that ships with this breaks, you'll have to improvise.Great price, design and quality. Happy customer and definitely recommended.
