I'm overwhelmed by all of the choice! If you've got an electric coffee bean drinker that you would recommend would you share it with me? Thank you!

I got this, £25 from John Lewis
Seems sturdy and is quick to grind the beans

What’s does a cheap grinder mean to you and what do you need it for? If you are grinding for espresso if will need to be much more capable than if you are using it for French press or pour over. Coffee grinders are a thing where you can really spend what you want on them. I spent £110 this morning on a grinder which is normally over £200 so feel like I got a good deal on it. I also have a Hario Skerton Pro hand grinder which was probably around £25 which is good - but you need to be willing to put in the effort! I’d try to get a burr grinder over a blade though.

I really rate this website’s buyers guides and reviews for the UK market, but it starts at over £100 and I’m not sure if thats in your budget.

Thanks, I just need it to grind beans for an aeropress - normally I buy beans ground but I've been given some that aren't and am starting to think I may as well grind my own from now on

Check out James Hoffman on YouTube.
I thought about buying one recently and watched a couple of his videos. You keep increasing the amount you spend to get a better result, and by the end you're spending £180 on a manual burr grinder when you started looking at a £25 electric one from Argos.
I ended up not buying one at all as I don't drink coffee everyday.

I've got this one and it has served me well for years, including for Aeropress.
