Pros & Cons
Pros
Braun ksm2-blk aromatic coffee grinder, black. This grinder is fantastic. But, this new one is fast and has more room to grind enough easily for a 12 cup pot!
This little grinder works great for grinding small amounts of coffee beans. It grinds enough beans to fill any home coffee maker. No need to pump or wait for a long drip time.
The only feature that i wish it has is a removable blades or grinder part, so i can wash. I find a kleenex works wonderfully well. It comes with a brush and since it is coffee grounds it brushes out quite easily.
The motor and everything else has plenty of life left. Used daily. It is more my fault than braun's, though. For any appliance to last 16 years these days is amazing. Have had mine for years.
I agree-it works but rather funky design to transmit lid push button to motor base. It works for me and hope it works for you too to save a few bucks for better tasting coffee.
Cons
The motor quits,however, after exactly 2 months of use. I like braun products generally, but this is a dud.
Highlights
Quality
We grind beans for aroma and flavor and this is an excellent product.
Of course you need to use good quality coffee beans to start with.

A little ground coffee does stay in the chamber, but i bought a pastry brush to use with the grinder to get it out.
Price
The price can't be beat and it works well.
Now i have gourmet coffee every day without the cost.
I would look elsewhere for a better price.
It is fairly loud but it only cost me 13 bucks.
Shipping
But, this new one is fast and has more room to grind enough easily for a 12 cup pot!
Packaging/appearance
Swing the filter back and then let it filtered through into the pot.
Competitiveness
It's a small, high-quality, reliable coffee grinder.
Edited to add: 2 years later and it's running like a champ.
I resolved to purchase a competing product, due to the extreme price gouging for a simple $19.
I have a regular braun coffee maker.
