I love this grinder! It is so powerful and at the same time does not take much space in my counter and super light and easy to use. You will say by the look that is cheap material but the power on this machine is amazing and the plastic body makes it supper easy to move around and it is very good quality! I highly recommend!! Shipping was supper fast I got it next day that I purchase. Very very very happy with this mill! Ah I was forgetting to say that I I had grind herbs and dry bean with not issues at all!! You can choose how fine you want anything it is supper cool!! Buy this instead of made in Ch you won’t regret!

Let's start right with - I LOVE my WonderMill! I also have a hand-grinding mill (Back to Basics) that I have used, but decided to look around for an electric mill, because even though the B2B is great, my hands and arms got tired, quick. Have no fear though, I'll keep the B2B for when the power is out, or we go camping, it does a great fine grind. So, I did some research, and then I saw and read some comparison tests. Well, I chose the WonderMill. Just to clear up some things: YES, you can turn off your WonderMill in the middle of grinding. Whether you can do this with the older models, I don't know, but the newer models you can. The manual still states (shown below) that it 'should' never be turned off, but if you go to the video link that I included, John shows you how to do to it. The manual has not been updated, per phone call. Here is the information from the manual: "You should NEVER SWITCH OFF your mill during its milling cycle. Wait until it has finished milling all of the grain in the hopper before stopping. Starting the mill with grain in the hopper or stopping the mill while it is in process may cause your mill to clog up with flour. If you wish to mill a small amount of flour just add a small amount of grain. If an emergency occurs and you must turn off the mill before the hopper is empty, turn the texture knob to the far left, pastry setting (11 o'clock), then switch the mill off. To restart the mill, remove all grains, hold mill firmly and shake mill upside down while tapping one side of the mill, readjust the texture knob to the coarse position, then turn the mill on. If the mill only hums - Do NOT continue to try to run the mill. Call the Service Center for Assistance at 208-234-9352." And here is the updated info, via youtube video: from the company, showing how to do it: [...] ** Added: 2/3/1010 - Amazon took off video link, which I can understand, so, here is how to find it: go to youtube and in the search bar at top of page, enter "grotemolen" WITH the quotes (the quotation marks will narrow down results), and you should see the different videos that the company has put out. Click on the one titled "Turning off the Wondermill Grain Mill During Milling". ** I also called the company itself, to make sure that when I wrote my review, that I was stating accurate information, and I was told: for older models, the information in the written manual is correct - but they have done more testing, and have found that NO, you do NOT have to turn the machine upside and empty out the hopper, and NO, you do NOT have to turn the texture knob to coarse before turning it back on. I also asked about the video showing John putting the wheat berries in the hopper before turning it on and was told it is better if the machine is empty when turned on, but that it was okay if you had grain in it. So... if you need to turn off your grinder to run to the bathroom (please, wash your hands before coming back ;o)) or grab the phone that is ringing, or answer the doorbell... well, you can. Loudness of the grinder: yes, it is very loud - when empty. Presumably though you won't be running it for too long with the hopper empty, then it quiets down some while grinding and stuff is hopper, as it empties it gets louder again. For myself this is not a problem, especially after grinding up Parmesan cheese chunks in my food processor. If you've ever done that, you know what I mean. :o) Which brings me to next point: when you first go to turn it on - hold onto it - maybe it's just mine, but it jumps a little. Once it gets going it's fine, but just so you know. Also, be prepared for when the hopper empties out, that 1 or 2 grains might try to escape by flying out. ;o) As far as getting the lid off the flour canister, I agree, it originally was a pain, but, I learned a trick. Hopefully, it will work for others, and not just on mine: I turn the canister so that the part with the curved flour tube is pointed AWAY from my body and pull up on the tab that is located by the tube while my other arm is wrapped around the canister - then I have a much easier time getting lid off. As I said, hopefully that will work for others. I don't know why it works on that particular tab for me, but it does. Don't ask me why. And yes, push down on all sides to make sure that it is firmly attached before turning on machine, push down with both hands firmly until you hear loud click - I learned that lesson very well. Here are some things to hopefully help others when they get their machine: When you first get your mill, you're told to run at least 2 cups of wheat or other hard grain, well, I wasn't willing to throw away good wheat, so, I used rice instead, and did 3 cups, just to be safe. No problems. It was also a good way to test the texture settings for me. The curved flour tube does NOT come off and does not pull straight out sideways! It becomes easier to move with usage, but first time might be a little tough. I'm right handed so here is how I do it: place my left hand, flat, on top of canister with tube side facing right, I take my thumb and hook it just into the hole and lay my forefinger along the side of tube for stability, and gently pull up and around. Basically you will be 'flipping' the tube horizontally, without removing it. When I first got machine, I hand washed all that could be washed, and wiped down the hopper part, then I milled my first grind, which was the throw-a-way rice, when you go to grind, make sure that the filter is on the machine and that you put the separator cup back on correctly (line the flat side of cup up with flat tab - I used a marker and made alignment arrows for ease). I forgot that first time, and made giant mess. Just an FYI. Another reviewer talks about lining the canister with plastic bag and that it helps with clean up - I have not tried that, but it sounds like it would work, I'll add addendum when I try it next week. Just ground up 6 cups of wheat so won't need more until then. Hope that this review helps someone else and clears up a little of the confusion that seems to be around about this machine.

This mill is excellent if you want to grind a lot of wheat. I grind my own wheat and make a lot of whole wheat bread, muffins, cakes, etc. I needed a mill that wouldn't damage my mixer (too late already did damage it) and was faster and more powerful than the little grinder I bought for spices (that keeps overheating). A coffee grinder doesn't work all that well for wheat flour either. This mill is easy to use, just make sure you press down hard on the canister lid. The first time I used it, I didn't press hard enough and had flour coming out all over the table and me. Now I pound on the lid until I hear it snap into place. No problem at all with flour escaping. As far as noise, it is quite loud when you turn it on with no grain. Once it starts grinding, it quiets down considerably. It is definitely quieter than my other grinders. It is easy to clean. I am happy with this purchase.

I love my Wonder Mill. I can easily make nutritious flour for my bread. Buyer beware though as the Seller Kitchen Boutique charged me $712.38 before taxes on Amazon and a few days later another seller was selling the same product for $450.00 before taxes. I contacted the seller "Kitchen Boutique" hoping that they would have excellent Customer Service and refund me the difference. Nope, they were not interested in doing so and didn't care about me as a Customer. They even claimed they were the lowest-priced Seller. I got on the internet and quickly found 5 other Sellers that were selling for much less. I was so disappointed in Kitchen Boutique. Whatever happened to good Customer Service?

As suggested, we ran a 1 kg. bag of white rice through the machine to ensure nothing inedible would wind up in future millings. The settings for the mill are, "Fine, Medium, Coarse", which is rather ambiguous in my humble opinion. Because this refers more to the size of the grain you're wanting to reduce to powder, rather than the resulting particle size of the flour. If you set it on Fine when trying to grind Corn, the kernels would never be able to get to the blades! The rice grain ground very well on "Medium", though it probably would have worked and produced a finer flour on the "Fine" setting with no problems. We'll try that next time. If the blades don't open sufficiently, the process would bog down; which is not desirable. It went very smoothly on Med. however. There was a pleasant aroma from the machine as I slowly dolled out the Rice grain from the bag into the hopper. In the future, I shall make sure the Rice has no rocks in it! Some of the Rice grains were popping out of the hopper because they are small and less weighty than say Corn. Not many spun out, just a few! Then flour dust began to form everywhere, indicating a leak of some sort. Too late, we had to get the first grind done! We then disengaged the canister from the mother-ship, and felt the warm Rice flour. It smelled so good! For a Med. grind, it looked very good! But like I say, rice would likely do even better on the Fine setting due to the size of the grain. We fed the Rice flour to the wild birds. I discovered that the "cross-over-tube between the WonderMill, and the Receiver-storage container wasn't seated properly into the rubber gasket. Hence the Rice powder snow everywhere on the table, floor, etc! We cleaned everything up with a pastry brush and prepared to do another grind of Corn. This time, ensuring the proper mating of the crossover tube to the WonderMill. Our son is an avid gardener, who has produced a number of his own cultivars from crossings of field corn from around the Americas. So we took a single Cup of his beautiful, colorful, Corn kernels and fed them slowly into the hopper on the "Coarse" setting. The results were amazing! Please compare the pix to what a Coffee Grinder does vs. this WonderMill Grain Mill. The single cup of Corn grain produced about 400 mL of what I'd call, Fine Corn Flour. We're having Corn Bread for lunch!
