Amazon.com Review
Italy's La Pavoni invokes a bygone era with this handsome machine. The hard-plastic hoppers and spout are sepia-toned, like old photographs of dignified men and women relaxing on a Ravello terrace, and burnished brass houses the grinder's electric motor. Good looks, however, don't overshadow the grinder's performance in delivering fresh, full-flavored ground coffee. First, pour up to 8 ounces of whole beans into the top hopper. Then turn a knob on the side to adjust grind from fine to coarse through nine finely calibrated settings. Press a button on the side, and coffee ground to your personal specifications spills into the removable front hopper. For grinding directly into a pot, remove the front hopper, place the pot beneath the spout, and press upward against a lever to activate the grinder. A quick cleanup with a brush that's included and the grinder awaits the next day. --Fred Brack

I spend about 100 dollars tax included to get this beautiful grinder.
It's the lowest price I saw, and this grinder really do his job.
I am using the stovetop coffee maker, which this product can handle easily.
Now I can enjoy my fresh coffee everyday.
PS. I really hate USPS package service, and that make my experience for shopping this grinder become 3 stars from 4 stars.

I have been using my PGB for about 10 years; it works very well with no problems. A great virtue of the model I have (hope this is still true) is the ability to grind directly into the espresso basket, turning on the machine with simple pressure from the basket; this enables one to grind just the coffee needed with no reservoir to empty or clean, and more assurance that a minimum of old ground coffee will join that which is freshly ground.

I'm quite satisfied with the excellent grind consistency and quality. The brass La Pavoni PGB Coffee Grinder is close to being a commercial grade burr grinder -- equal to those found in Europe's espresso bars and restaurants. Be aware that the brass finish is "plated" over hard plastic, so carefully inspect your new grinder before using it. I had to return mine twice to the retailer back east, before a perfect one arrived. I've used mine daily for more than three years without any issues.Just a quick note to Patricia O'Connor who considered it "a piece of junk." With proper care & regular cleaning, the La Pavoni PGB Coffee Grinder will last a lifetime. -smile-
 SADLY DISSAPPOINTING August 16, 2002

I PUCHASED THE LA PAVONI GRINDER ABOUT SIX MONTHS AGO, TRULY THINKING THAT IT WOULD BE THE LAST GRINDER I EVER NEEDED. IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE WELL MADE AND FOR PROFESSIONAL USE, SO I FIGURED THAT USING IT ONCE A DAY WOULD BE A PIECE OF CAKE, AND I WAS WILLING TO SPEND THE BIG BUCKS FOR SOMETHING THAT WOULD LAST.
AFTER MY CAPRESSO BURR GRINDER EXPERIENCE, I REALLY WANTED A STURDY QUALITY MACHINE. WELL, AFTER HALF A YEAR OF USE, THE GRINDER BURR IS COMPLETELY WORN OUT, AND WOULDN'T GRIND MY FINGER IF I STUCK THAT IN IT, AND, NO ONE CAN SEEM TO FIND THE PARTS TO FIX IT, AND IF THEY COULD IT WOULD COST ME [MONEY]. AREVADERCI LA PAVONI!! OH AND BYE BYE [MONEY], WHAT A PIECE OF JUNK.
