Purchased the smaller stainless steel version. Fluffy yes, but oh so quick with little effort. Very smooth. I have several grinder styles and so far this is my favorite. I cannot imagine this one needing cleaning.......for a very long time.
I recently upgraded to the lastest 2.5 mill with grip. They even swapped my old mill after user error. Solid brand and team
In my personal opinion, this is the finest herb processor on the market. Personally, I prefer the finest mill plate (#1). The build quality on this unit is very well done. A little background on myself to offer perspective. I served as a master mechanic/machinist for most of my life (25 years) before entering the cannabis industry as a grower. This is the flower processor we use for all of our research and development. For those who know the difference, this is the “grinder” to buy. Major shout out to the automotive professionals that engineered this. Those of us that know can tell.

My wife and I recently purchased the stainless 2.5" mill... We LOVE it!
We always preferred hand broken flower... but any seasoned smoker knows that just becomes tedious lol. So we had the typical grinder. Now, with this flower mill we find that our flower comes out as close to hand broken as ever before. The flower remains fluffy and doesn't get shredded into dust, it's perfect.
We simply cannot imagine going back to a traditional grinder that shreds everything.
