This seems to be exactly the same as the Nesco grinder: http://www.amazon.com/Nesco-BG-13-Bla... Possibly the same manfacturer... Anyone know anything about how the two compare? Thanks!

Does look the same, and both are 250 Watt. One difference I see is Nesco has 1 year warranty (http://www.nesco.com/files/pdf/bg13_blade_coffee_grinder_careuse_trilingua_r5.pdf), Epica has 3 year (as stated in manual). They have different service addresses -- but doesn't mean it isn't the same manufacturer. Note, on the bottom of the Epica is is marked "Intertek 3015314" -- if you want to compare to the Nesco if it's the same.

Yes, I'd say it was identical, and I am so surprised by the negative reviews. All I can think is that perhaps a batch was manufactured that had a defective part. I've had mine for almost 2 months & use it every day. (I use it on footies that pill, so I need it daily for them.) I bought it for use on sweaters, and it's the best sweater shaver I've had, including one that plugged into the wall.

I'm looking to buy one. Such a good question but no one seems to know the answer. :(update: I think they are the same except one is more cheaply built. But which one?? Who knows...could be the higher priced one!

The Delica 4 is available in both grinds so obviously one is incorrect (I think the description is incorrect)... since amazon e-mailed me to respond to this question, I assume the item is the same as the one I ordered some months ago... My knife is the FFG variety. If you want the FFG, order the item with confidence - Amazon has the best customer service on the planet... If the knife is not what you expected, they will make it right and they'll do it fast... If that is not an adequate solution for you, call or e-mail the seller and ask for clarification.- Michael -

Hi Dee, Sorry it took so long to respond to your inquiry. To be very honest, there is not a whole lot of difference between the two. I only bought the Softworks Grinder because I already had the Good Grips Pepper Grinder! They both work very well and the only thing that I can tell you is the name of each describes the design of the bottle. The Good Grips has a harder bottom part which is what you twist to get the pepper. The Soft Works is a smaller bottom and not as hard of a material. I'm not sure if this helps but, in truth, they are both good, cost about the same so it is kind of a personal choice on which style you like better. Happy Seasoning!!

This product was purchased as a gift for my granddaughter's husband.I have no personal experience with coffee grinders. Sorry I cannotgive you any first-hand experience with it, but my grandson-in-lawwas thrilled with receiving the item he had placed on his 'Wish List.'

They look the same. I will tell you that the pepper doesn't grind as well as the salt. I think if's a function of the difference between the salt crystal, very hard and dense and the peppercorn, which somewhat hollow. I don't know if the 2 mills are interchangeable but I think the odds are pretty good that they are. C

The price is due to quality differences, no they are not the same mill. Only Grind Gourmet's mills are the Original Pump & Grind Mills made of solid stainless steel tubing with a small food-grade acrylic viewing window, this listing is for a copy of the original they are made of a plastic cylinder with metal accents. The price matches the material difference, again Grind Gourmet Originals are made of stainless steel while the copies are made mostly of plastic. We offer the copy on this listing to allow consumer to decide what they want to invest in. I hope this helps!

Olga: This unit did not hold up to my grinding needs. I use a fine setting with dark, oily beans, and this grinder could not handle it. The company even admitted that it wouldn't, yet refused me a refund. If you use a lighter bean, it will probably work for you. I'm unfamiliar with Turkish style coffee, and I can't tell just how fine this grinder goes, but its range seemed to be quite adequate, (assuming darker beans aren't used.)I've been using the Baratza Encore for many months. It does not buckle under when I use a fine grind with dark beans; I recommend it, and it sells for a few dollars less than the Capresso. My review of the Capresso, "Do you like a dark roast and fine grind? Beware!" may be helpful. Olga: This unit did not hold up to my grinding needs.

They look almost exactly the same except the salt grinder has a white o-ring on the bottom -- the pepper is black ---which is saying one is for salt only ---the grinding mechanisms are exactly the same--and they are adjustable w/5 settings --- they are efficient and good for everyday use ----replace with peppercorns and fairly course salt JEV

I looked online to see what your grinder looks like, I found one and the pic is a bit blurry but it does resemble this one. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

I don't know, either. My recipe and instruction books say Nesco American Harvest and there's a logo on the base of the dehydrator that says Gardenmaster Pro. So I think they're the same. I love mine. I have eight trays with eight plastic inserts for fruit leather etc. and eight plastic mesh inserts for more finely cut foods.

They may be the same type of grinding mechanisms, but they look different to me. The size of the "teeth" is smaller on the salt. I doubt they are interchangeable.

The mechanics are the same; however, the salt grinder does grind alittle finer than the pepper mill . . . . and I will echo the sentiments below. These are THE BEST . . . I'll never own anything else.

Not sure actually. I can tell you that this particular grinder is high quality. Heavy metal, solid construction and works as promised. Good luck!!

Fits great, I have the same model. Im very pleased with their performance. As other reviwers mentioned, they were not as shsrp as the could be. A quick buzz with the grinder & you'll be in business. Highly recommend.

The grinder has an adjustable setting so you can make it as fine or course as you want. I have never compared it to Mcdonalds so I am not sure if matches their salt size exactly or not but it can grind it pretty small. Go ahead and order, remember if you're not happy with it just let me know and I'll issue you a refund.
