Is it good for espresso?

Not really. Blade grinders produce an uneven grind, and espresso needs a consistent fine grind. It works better for drip, French press or spice grinding.

Can it grind spices as well as coffee?

Yes. The four steel blades handle dry spices like pepper, cumin and cinnamon. Wipe the bowl between uses so flavors don't carry over.

How much coffee does it hold at once?

It is a small batch grinder, so expect to grind enough for a few cups at a time rather than a full bag.

How does it compare with a burr grinder?

A burr grinder gives a more even grind and adjustable settings. This one is simpler, faster and easier to clean, but less consistent.

Does it need special care?

Unplug it before cleaning and wipe the bowl rather than washing the motor base. Keep the lid on while grinding.

Our take on the LINKChef Coffee Grinder, Spice Grinder with 4 Blades

The LINKChef is a small electric blade grinder for coffee beans and dry spices. A 200W motor spins four stainless steel blades in a stainless steel and plastic body that fits under most kitchen cabinets. It suits people who want quick, cheap freshly ground coffee or spices and don't need espresso-grade consistency. Against burr grinders it is simpler and less even, so expect a mix of fine powder and coarse chunks rather than a uniform grind.
