Pros: Price; customer service
Cons: Poor Quality ; faulty pieces
Summary: I purchased this product with a gift certificate that I had earned online so it was basically free but regardless, I do have some complaints about the performance of this grinder.
This is the Fresh Grind Coffee Mill from Proctor-Silex and the ... read more

Pros: It's plastic.
Cons: FIRE HAZARD, SHOCK HAZARD, POORLY DESIGNED, SNOOTY CUSTOMER SERVICE... JUNK!!!
Summary: Oh where do I start? The first thing you will notice with your Proctor-Silex Coffee Grinder is it doesn't hold enough coffee to make a full pot of coffee. But once you start grinding with it, the next little dandy is that once you grind your coffee and ... read more

Pros: worked
Cons: the cord winding feature eventually cut the cord
Summary: My husband came with this grinder when we married, and since I was replacing most of his kitchen stuff with mine, when it came to which grinder to use, I let him keep his. I liked that the cord wound up and didn't look messy on the counter. It died ... read more

Pros: Cheap
Cons: Small capacity, very messy
Summary: This is the kind of product you'll pay double to replace once you've used it for a couple of days. What a piece of junk.
Problems:
1) Its grinding chamber doesn't hold very much coffee. Barely enough for a french press. Definitely ... read more

Pros: It is inexpensive.
Cons: It works like it is cheap.
Summary: I actually do not own this grinder, but one of my best friends does. We both make coffee often when we are hanging out, and I use his grinder when I am over at his house. My standard of comparison is an inexpensive Krups grinder that is in the same ... read more

Pros: small, self-storing cord, inexpensive, versatile
Cons: none
Summary: I am not a big coffee drinker but enjoy a cup now and then of gourmet coffee. I do love the smell of freshly ground coffee beans.
The main reason I even needed a coffee grinder was so I could grind grains. Having recently gone on ... read more

Pros: Excellent job for Herbs and Seeds.
Cord recoils into grinder for storage.
Good price.
Cons: Lid easy to wash, but takes care to clean interior.
Summary: I've had this grinder for over 5 years with complete satisfaction. I use the grinder for grinding dried herbs - sage, rosemary, etc. and it does a great job. Mainly I use the grinder each week to grind Flax Seeds and Chai Seeds. I buy

Pros: it's cheap
Cons: it's worthless
Summary: The Proctor-Silex E160B coffee grinder is an inferior product, the worst coffee grinder I have ever used, and a complete waste of money. I purchased this grinder specifically (and exclusively) to grind peppercorns. I used the grinder two or three

Pros: Cheap, Works great
Cons: Bad design on the Retractable cord...
Summary: We have had the unit for less than a year and the cord is showing exposed bare wire. This is the second unit to do this. This is a shock and fire hazard. The cord wraps back into the unit by self winding, after some time the cord cracks and

Pros: Flax seed wonder, inexpensive, small unobtrusive size, easy to clean and use
Cons: Blades might not be up to the task of handling coffee beans?
Summary: I tried several options for grinding flax seeds - even one by hand sure to bring on carpal tunnel syndrome before I discovered this little gem. I don't drink coffee but would think the light weight of the blades and the small capacity might not stand up

Pros: Works for years (3 ?), retractable cord, simple use.
Cons: None, I found and bought the same model for my parents.
Summary: I've owned this coffee grinder for nearly 3 years now and love it. I have not had any problems with it. To be honest, I do not pull out and/or retract the cord. For me, I leave it out about 7 inches and keep it there. The performance is wonderful and

Pros: The wind-up cord is great, especially if you put the grinder away frequently.
Cons: Dull blade.
On/Off button doesn't work well.
Summary: I've had this coffee grinder for about 3 years, so I would say that it performed better for me than for some of the other reviewers here. The only reason it's been around so long is that I'm very stubborn and decided to use the grinder until it refused

Pros: Cheap and holds the cord for storing it inside the grinder.
Cons: none really
Summary: I bought this Proctor Silex Fresh Grind Coffee Mill E160B because I had heard that grinding your own coffee beans will make a better tasting cup of coffee. That is correct about this grinder. Unlike the other people who have rated the grinder. I have had

Pros: It was white
retractable cord
Cons: Difficult to run
Sticky top
Not large capacity
Summary: This coffee grinder has me very frustrated! It does not hold enough beans to make a 12 cup coffee pot, it gets the grounds caught in the lid making it difficult to open without yanking it (need I say more about what happened to all the freshly ground
