Braun MQS270SI Multiquick Coffee and Spice Grinder Hand Blender Attachment, 1.5-Cup

Perfect size, easy to clean, does an amazing job of grinding coffee beans, spices, freeze dried items too. It's pretty quiet & easy to use.

Great attachment for the Braun MultiQuick 9 Hand Blender! Suitable for grinding spices and seasonings. I highly recommend adding it to the set!

Garbage.Absolute garbage.The very first time I used it the plastic came apart and some of it even MELTED.Yes, I read the manual first.Yes, I followed the directions.Yes, I had the proper model of blender.Didn't matter.It was just that fragile and poorly made.Save yourself some trouble here: This is just the immersion blender attachment with a miniature, shoddily built, version of the food processor attachment.After using this (it didn't even grind one single batch of beans) I tried using the immersion blender AND IT WORKED JUST FINE.Unfortunately, I cannot give this a negative star rating, as it deserves one. Not only did it not work, not only did it shatter on the first use, but the shards of plastic rendered the beans unusable. It's actually worth NEGITIVE money.

I have not used it yet but it looks well-made and of unique design as the 'blade' is really a stirrer with the cutting edges at the tips of the 'blade' facing vertically, much like the wing tips of an airplane wing. The perceived advantage of this is that it will likely not grind previously chopped items as much into a powder while whole items remain above which may lead to a more consistent grind. Its biggest flaw is the manual which is made up of tiny black & white pictorials with no written instructions. These are very challenging to decipher, especially the items that should not be ground and will require me to call the company for interperation. This is the only reason I gave it a three star rating. Otherwise I would have likely given it a five.

Bought this to grind up dried pumpkin flakes. Flakes get caught at end of the blade and stops. Thinking of returning.
