Great for cutting pipe tobacco for RYO Cigarettes
Does a good job cutting pipe tobacco into small enough pieces to work for RYO cigarettes. Two short pulses and that's all you need. The lid mechanism is a little difficult to start the cutting blades but with a little effort, it eventually works.

EZ Does It
I ordered this grinder after reading several reviews. Apparently this "tobacco" shredder doesn't work well with tobacco, but weed... indeed. After review of several items I went with this one. Got it the next day, cleaned it out and threw in about an 1/8th of premium top shelf goodness. I pressed the activation button very quickly just once (based on previous reviews), Wow. A second time, Oooohh, and a third time, Perfect! This works great but you have to be very care to only "pulse" the power and check the grind after every pulse. Mine literally took 3 very quick pulses. This green machine will pulverize your product if you are not careful, but it is well worth the price.

Careful Grinding Cannabis
I have had this product for 1 year. Works great! Maybe too good๐ค For my medicinal herbs๐ชด, about 1-3 quick taps to grind does the trick. If you hold down the power button for too long OR tap it 1 too many times, it will SUPER GRIND the herbs to a fine powder. No bueno for vaping. Quick learning curve for me ๐๐จ KIEF! And lots of it. Do yourself a favor and buy a small hobby painter brush with small bristles. After grinding flower/herb, just brush out the Kief powder. I use the shredder about 2-4x per month. I grind about 3.5 grams (1/8 oz) per use. I think eventually the shredder will get clogged from all the fine powder collecting on internal components/moving parts. It doesnโt look easy to take apart for maintenance. I will cross that bridge upon arrival. The power/shredderโs button is a plastic peg which inserts into a โbuttonโ flushed with the main body through the shredder; so itโs easy for the top/cover with the plastic peg to NOT align properly sometimes. BE CAREFUL not to force the plastic cover because it looks like it can break if youโre not careful handling shredderโs top/cover.

SHRED NO MORE THAN ONE SECOND!
Perfect! Use pipe tobacco to load cigarette tubes. Perfectly reduces tobacco. Large holding capacity. DON'T SHRED LONGER THAN ONE SECOND OR YOUR TOBACCO COULD EASILY BE REDUCED TO POWDER READY ONLY FOR THE TRASH! NJOY!

Great herb grinder saves time and custom grinds
Absolutely great grinder. I replaced a manual grinder and was promptly amazed. Typically it would take 1 hour to grind about 2 ounces of dried herbs. With this new electric, the process took less than 5 minutes. I was also able to grind just a bit more finely by adding a few short cycles of grinding time by pushing the switch button. Easy to clean, easy to operate, a fantastic value for grinding herbs. So happy I purchased this.

Dangerous machine: I've had several of these and they all died the exact same way
The actual button on the inside of the machine melts causing the machine to get stuck on until it gets so hot inside that the switch actually falls apart. When it is about to go bad it will start turning on randomly without pushing the button. This is very dangerous especially when emptying the device as tobacco always gets stuck between the blade and the housing. Never use your finger to turn the blade to get this out as you don't know when the machine might just randomly turn on by itself. These tend to last about 4 months before they fail in this way. Since I have so many dead ones I'm just going to rewire a few of them with a high quality external momentary switch. I'll add some pictures and video of the failures to this review when I disassemble the one that just failed that I purchased about four months ago. Oh and these failures aren't from heavy use. I use the machine to grind 1.5lb of tobacco once every 2 weeks. So it seems these will last long enough to grind about 12lb of tobacco before they fail.

Powerful!
Two quick whirls and my product is nicely sized down. Because I have arthritis and carpal tunnel, it was getting difficult for me to use a grinder. This is a great alternative. Because it's small, it stores nicely in a corner of a cupboard. I suggest keeping an old painting brush or something like it handy to help brush out the contents. I would recommend.
