What reviewers say about the Brew Conical Burr Coffee Grinder
All three whitelisted hands-on testers — Reviewed (USA Today), Good Housekeeping, and WIRED — recommend the OXO Brew Conical Burr Coffee Grinder. Reviewed and Good Housekeeping name it Best Overall, citing even, consistent grinds across brew styles, low static, and a large 3/4 lb (12 oz) hopper. WIRED ranks it its best ~$100 drip grinder and a strong beginner pick, but flags weak espresso, more boulders and fines than pricier picks, and a little noise.

Commonly flagged
- Weak for espresso — too few fine adjustments at the fine end of the scale
- A little loud; not as quiet as pricier top picks
- Less precise than premium grinders — kicks out more boulders and fines
- Tall (~13 in), takes up counter space
Where reviewers disagree Reviewed and Good Housekeeping crown the OXO their Best Overall grinder across all price points, whereas WIRED ranks it only as its best ~$100 drip grinder — behind the pricier Baratza Encore ESP and Fellow Ode Gen 2 — and scores its espresso just 1/5 (versus 3.5/5 for drip). None of the three published a model-specific measured grind benchmark for the OXO, so all three verdicts are hands-on but qualitative on numbers.
The sources (3)
The OXO Brew Conical Brew Grinder is the best overall grinder we've ever tested.
The stainless-steel ground container resists static cling so it doesn’t strew grounds when you open the lid. We also found virtually no ground coffee accumulated in the chute.
With a height of about 13-inches, the Oxo takes up more space than many other grinders but will easily fit under a cabinet.
Our pros were impressed with the OXO burr grinder in our tests. We found it produced very even grounds at different settings that can be used for espresso, cold brew, and everything in between.
The hopper (where the beans are stored) has the largest capacity of all the coffee grinders we tested, holding up to 3/4 of a pound of coffee beans.
Some online reviewers say that this machine tends to clog when using very oily beans, but otherwise works well.
This Oxo also grinds consistently enough for good-tasting drip.
That said, this machine is industrial-handsome and intuitive to use, with a grind-by-time function you can dial in for your brewer if you hate scales.
This Oxo is also not as quiet as our top pick, and kicks out more boulders and fines than either of our top two picks.
