What Others Say
Excellent Grinder
I owned a Krups coffee grinder before and it lasted 12 years. The GX4100 is a step up from my old one in style. This new one does a wonderful job of grinding. Please be aware that if you grind cloves in it, the plastic top will turn opaque and you will no longer be able to see what is being ground anymore. Otherwise, the best grinder to be had for the money.
state of the art grinder
I purchased Krups GX4100 Electric Coffee and Spice Grinder to grind flax seeds. This grinder looks sleek and works well. What more could you want?
Fair to Poor Quality
I had a Krups which lasted 10+ yrs, but plug finely went bad. Bought this one because of name and looks. After only 6 weeks, top does not fit into the bottem for grinding since PLASTIC activator peg already broken. Was difficult to fit into the top to get going too. Did grind nicely when I finally got it just in the right place, but this is the not Krups quality I am used to. I returned mine and will try another brand.
Great Choice For A Blade Grinder
I've owned many blade and burr grinders, including a commercial model burr grinder I use for espresso. In my experience, the inexpensive ($100 or less) burr grinders all share problems with static electricity as well as cheap housings for the "commercial grade" burrs.
I think that, for most grinds, a blade grinder works at least as well as the inexpensive burr grinders.
I have owned the Krups grinder for many years, and the blade has finally stopped catching all of the beans. I managed to dismantle the blade assembly and I sharpened the blade, but that only worked for a week. The Krups grinder more than earned its keep after so many years, and I am getting another one.

AWESOME Grinder!
I have nothing to compare this to as I have never owned another grinder, so I will just give my opinion. I have used this for pill grinding so far and it has done an incredible job, my 12 pills go from huge to powder in about 10 seconds. It operates easily with the simple press of a button. Love it, highly recommend.
