If you are looking for a well-designed, consistent, and versatile all-purpose grinder, the Secura Electric Coffee and Spice is a great option. It created the finest grinds at the fastest speeds of those we tested, and we love the fine consistency it achieved in all our test spices. The Secura is also versatile, including two stainless steel bowls, one designed for grinding and one designed for chopping. This means it can handle a variety of grinding tasks, including grinding various spices, seeds, nuts, and coffee, while also being able to chop small amounts of nuts, veggies, and fresh herbs. Its smart design includes a rubber-sealed lid that covers the bowls during grinding and chopping, making for a less messy process. Thus clean-up was easy, and the lid can double for storage of excess spice. The grinding cups themselves were easy to clean with soapy water or a rinse and towel dry.
While we love this grinder, we did have a couple of minor gripes. The cord-keeping feature was a bit annoying as we found it difficult to wrap the cord around the spool on the bottom, and it kept trying to escape the guide. It was also difficult to see the grind consistency through the two plastic lids, one which is pressed down to start the grinder &#40;a typical feature&#41; and the other a fitted lid that keeps spices from flying out of the grinder. Still, this model is a great choice for the home chef looking to grind a variety of spices and herbs and occasionally chop small additions to the meal.
