Customers are dissatisfied with the electric food mill grinder. They mention that the static generated makes it difficult to get the grounds out. They also say that all burr grinders produce static.

Conical burr grinders, as opposed to flat burrs (or god forbid, blade choppers), are the best kind of coffee grinders you can buy. In theory, this grinder is a headliner for what professional grade should be. Given the price, it is exactly as advertised but for better or worse, it's exactly what you paid for.
My setup:
I am a trained barista and I have several brewing methods in my kitchen. I have a beautiful Grosche french press, a Melitta #2 pour-over, and a Bonavita BV1900TS automatic brewer. No kidding, I take my coffee seriously. Unfortunately I do not have an espresso machine so I can't speak about the performance for grind sizes below #7 on the grinder.
1. Grind
The most important performance aspect of any grinder is obviously the grind. You would want something that grinds evenly and accurate to the setting. For the most part, this grinder performs admirably. Every single grind settings between #7 to #18 (coarsest on this machine) really make a huge impact on the flavor of the cup. Using a Melitta pour over, a #7, #8, or #9 taste vastly different across multiple iterations. #7 produces acup that is syrupy and bitter while #9 pours a weak watery mild cup of coffee. At #8, the coffee shines with no bitterness and rich full flavors. Obviously, different brewing methods and even different types of coffee will have its own perfect grind, you can find the flavor you are looking for on this machine with few sacrifices.
The evenness of the grind achieved for this machine performs beyond any consumer flat burr or blade chopper can ever hope for. That being said, you will still find some coarse pieces and fine powder within a grind. Fortunately, the outliers are few enough in amount that it won't adversely affect the flavor beyond reasonable tolerance. For better performance you would have to spend at least twice this much for a professional brand grinder.
2. Aesthetics
I ordered this grinder without ever seeing it in person and I don't regret it one bit. This machine stands just a few inches short of my Bonavita and looks commanding without overbearing. The sides are made of real metal, not metal painted plastic so you can really feel the quality on this machine. Incidentally, it matches the finish on my Bonavita perfectly and they look like a set if weren't for the brand logo. There is a decent heft to the machine so you won't have to worry about accidentally knocking the machines off the counter. Unfortunately, the LCD screen is brightly lit with blue backlit that cannot be turned off without cutting off the power, but I have the grinder, along with my other kitchen appliances plugged into a powerstrip with its own switch. No harm done.
3. Features
There are 18 grind settings on this machines, grind from espresso to coarse. I can't test anything finer than #7 because I don't have an espresso machine but the coarse setting can withstand the immersion of my french press and cold brew coffee. There are no fine particulates that stuck to the filter on my french press and very little sludge in the cup.
The grounds holder, unfortunately, is made of smooth clear plastic, which means one thing: static. There is quite a bit of static when using this grinder that will make grounds get sticky in the walls of the container and the sprout. With some careful tapping and patience, you can tame the static but not eliminating it. For what's it worth, it's not enough of a downside to dismiss this grinder but it is something you'll have to deal with.
4. Clean up
Clean up is fairly easy with a removable bean hopper, burrs and grounds container. Those are usually hand-washed and the burr set just needs a bit of dusting with the included scoop and brush combo. The hard part comes with grinder itself and the sprout which can be difficult to clean. With some wiggling and patience you can thoroughly clean the grinder in 5 minutes or less. It is something you have to maintain when owning any grinder so I'm grateful it's not any harder than it needs to be.
Overall, I am very happy for the performance relative to the price. I know there are better grinders and cheaper grinders, but for making a great cup of coffee at home, you can't go wrong with this grinder. I highly recommend it.
Works very well, producing very uniform grind consistency
Adjustment for grind size from powder-fine to very coarse is simple
Looks very nice
Feels heavy and well-made
Bean hopper on top has a generous capacity, as does the ground hopper
Cons:
The grind hopper builds up significant static and tends to scatter grounds on the counter
Grounds tend to collect behind the ground hopper
After reading reviews on several units, I settled on this one. I knew I wanted a vertical burr grinder for ground consistency, and I like that you can store plenty of beans in the input hopper. The hopper lid fits on tightly enough that I don't feel the beans will become stale while stored there, and in fact I have not noticed any drying out or staleness in the beans I have stored in it so far.
The back light for the LCD display is a pleasant blue color, and does not have an "off" setting, so those who would prefer their kitchen / kitchenette not to have a faint blue night light might want to unplug it when not in use, or put it on a switched outlet / power strip.
I only use the manual grind function and only grind what I need for one cup at a time, so I cannot comment on the programmable functions. I do notice that it is easy to make a mess when scooping grounds out of the output hopper due in part to the amount of static that builds up on the plastic output hopper, but I just put down a paper towel to work over, or just wipe the counter afterwards. It is not like a big coffee bomb goes off when scooping out coffee (unless you drop the output bin like I did once), but getting some grounds on the counter top is unavoidable. I have noticed that grounds accumulate behind the output hopper and require periodic cleaning out, but even that is not such a big deal to me - some may feel differently, but it only takes a few seconds every few days.
Overall, this grinder has made a nice companion for my single-serve coffee maker, and now I can have freshly ground coffee for every cup without spending as much on the individual prepackaged cups. Using the grinder the way I do, I figure the grinder will pay for itself in a couple of years, and I can enjoy any kind of coffee I want without having to find a compromise in the prepackaged cups.

Solo tengo una duda las aspas aunque cónicas son de metal ¿qué tanto serán mejor las de cerámica? ¿las aspas son de acero inoxidable?
Me gustaría que fuera más pequeño y menos ruidoso pero no es tan grave
Lo recomiendo
I believe this is my third grinder. It manages to last for 2 to 4 years. The reason I have had so many is my own fault not the grinder. I have inadvertently damaged each one. I would not purchase any other grinder
