As for whether or not in comes into contact with your food (per another answer), in many/most cases, the process of grinding causes abrasions in the plastic that leave it with a scratched/filmy look over even just the first few uses, which means that tiny bits of plastic are, in fact, coming off of the top and getting into the food. However, I have not yet been able to track down any grinder that has a glass top, so beyond this dismal PSA, I have little to offer in terms of advice. Hope this helps. **Q: Can the bowl be removed for cleaning?** A: Bowl does not come out. I clean with a moist paper towel about once a month. I just keep the lid on so that foreign matter does not collect in the bowl. **Q: How many watts?** A: It has 130 watts,just enough for me to grind black pepper beans quickly. VanCNguyen **Q: Does the top bowl come off. i have this one now and it does. also does it have pulse? mine does have pulse? h-e-b $15 2yrs ago** A: No,mine has been working fine.But it has no pulse. I have been using it for grinding coffee beans or black pepper beans VCN ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A gem of a grinder! *by K***M on March 16, 2026* Perfect! Easy to use and grinds the same consistency every time. Actually this is the first grinder that I have ever purchased. Works great! Small, but that's what I needed. I highly recommend. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Freshness and power in a compact design *by Y***L on March 20, 2026* If you are a lover of freshly ground coffee or enjoy cooking with fresh spices, this Cuisinart mill is the perfect tool. It is a small device but with a surprising performance that greatly facilitates the day to day. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Expected quality for the price *by J***N on December 10, 2025* Grinds good beans, just make sure to shake a lot before pulsing. Also don’t pulse continuously, hit the pulse every second and shake shake shake. The storage capacity is good for me cause I like to grind up my beans everytime i want a cup or two of coffee. Cleaning is simple, I wipe with a wet towel. Finally, the taste of the coffee is swell, where I can easily make medium coarse beans within 20 pulses (1 min or less with shaking). But to be honest, it doesn’t grind super evenly but as long as you always shake between pulses you’ll get a consistent ENOUGH result. Worth the price. ## Frequently Bought Together - Cuisinart DCG-20BKN Coffee Grinder, On/Off Switch With Safety Interlock, Stainless Steel Blades and Easy-to-Clean Bowl with Lid, 2.5oz/70g Capacity – Enough for 12 Cups, Black - Amazon Fresh Colombia Whole Bean Coffee, Medium Roast, 12 Ounce - San Francisco Bay Whole Bean Coffee - DECAF Espresso Roast (2lb Bag), Dark Roast --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/1368917-coffee-grinder-one-touch-control-coffee-bean-grinder-with-stainless](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/1368917-coffee-grinder-one-touch-control-coffee-bean-grinder-with-stainless) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-04-25*
