The Coffee Score review
The BISTRO Electric Burr Grinder crushes the coffee beans between conical burrs rather than chopping them, preventing the coffee from losing its characteristic taste and aroma. Our team spent hands-on time with the Bodum Bistro Electric Conical Burr Coffee Grinder, Preset Timer to see how it holds up against the rest of the grinders we've tested.
Across repeated sessions we evaluated it on the categories that matter most: quality, consistency, value, and how likely we are to reach for it again. Ranked #47 of our top 50 grinders — a strong electric burr pick, earning a 3.7★ average across 8,360 Amazon ratings.
The BISTRO Electric Burr Grinder crushes the coffee beans between conical burrs rather than chopping them, preventing the coffee from losing its characteristic taste and aroma. By twisting the upper bean container, the variable grind settings can be adjusted from a coarse French press setting all the way down to a fine ground for espresso, depending on the brewing method or personal taste.

Buyer beware: great grinder BUT can't replace fragile/cheap components, not anti-static
I have used Bodum products and been happy with them for years, but this one has let me down. I was a little disappointed in it for a very small reason but could live with it.

Awesome upgrade over blade grinder
I'd been using the same blade grinder for years and had never really been happy with the results. Coffee was always inconsistent and unless the planets were aligned, usually tasted like bleh.

Snoopy Verified purchase ★★★★★
Finally, my perfect grinder
I've used a number of blade grinders in the past, and they all had two thing in common--tons of mess, and uneven grinding. I'm currently using a french press for a couple months (drip machine packed for moving), and have used a french press for years, especially when the office coffee was standard issue terrible.
