Espresso Grinder Appraisal

Breville Coffee Grinder

The item is a household coffee grinder, specifically identified as a Breville brand model. It features a brushed stainless steel or similar gray metallic finish for its main body, suggesting durability and a modern aesthetic. The top section houses a large, transparent, dark-tinted plastic hopper designed to hold whole coffee beans, with what appears to be a removable lid. Below the hopper, on the front face of the grinder, there is a digital display panel (LCD) and three circular control buttons, presumably for adjusting grind settings, quantity, and initiating the grinding process. The text 'Breville' is clearly visible in white lettering above the display. To the right side of the main body, a rotary knob is present, likely for fine-tuning grind size. At the base, there's a receptacle for ground coffee, which appears to be a clear or dark-tinted plastic container with measurement markings (e.g., 'Cups'). This container sits on a black, integrated tray or base. Visible condition issues include a noticeable layer of dust on the black base tray and some minor smudges or wear on the metallic body, consistent with regular use in a kitchen environment. The overall design suggests a contemporary style, likely manufactured in the last 10-15 years, considering the digital interface and common appliance aesthetics. The craftsmanship appears to be of good quality, typical of a mid to high-range consumer appliance, with solid construction indicated by the metallic housing. No specific model number is discernible from the image, but the design is consistent with Breville's 'Dose Control' or 'Smart Grinder Pro' series.
