I own this. I don't recall the price being this high. I think I paid half that, But I love this as you can change the grind from coarse to fine. The more important thing are the beans. I buy the beans green and roast them myself for regular grind. For Greek coffee, I'll grind fine or simply go to Starbucks or any other coffee place and ask them to fine grind for me 1/4 to 1/2 lb. Once you open the package of ground coffee it will go stale within 3 to 4 days...say for sure within 7 days. If you put in the refrig, it will go bad even faster. So, you buy the smallest amount you can. I'll drink Greek coffee maybe once per month. So, I'll grind a batch. But, you can easily get in the habit of it everyday. If so, you need to get a Flin-Johnny (That's how you pronounce it) online or from a Mediterranean food market.

I have the same KitchenAid coffee mill. It was the only one on the market I could find that appeared to be well designed and constructed, but cost less than an commercial-grade unit. About the only criticism it got from Amazon reviewers was that the bowl that collects the ground coffee seemed flimsy and needed to be handled with care.

If a grind that is coarser or finer than what the adjustment dial covers is needed, the instructions tell how to move an internal gear (under the knob) a couple of notches to extend the range one way or the other.
