The KitchenAid Coffee Grinder features a nicely curved profile that has a robust footprint including rubber feet that prevent scratches and help absorb sound for quiet operation. The heavy-duty motor housing helps keep the grinder stable during operation. And, the clear top cover is durable for years of grinding. The whole grinder is remarkably easy to clean. The bowl, blade and top cover can go straight to the dishwasher for easy cleanup. The exterior wipes clean with a soft cloth.
