Do you mean like a 10 dollar one from a smoke shop?
Yeah how is it different from the 10$ regular 3 compartment hand twist grinder?
It’s magnetic so better for my pain, incredibly smoother grind, don’t get shaving from your grinder in it, and you get to choose your specific grind you like. It’s really one of those thing where you don’t know till you know
Thank you for the reply. Just so you know, you convinced me to spend the money on one! I grind a lot of herb these days and the 10$ grinders just weren't cutting it anymore ba dum Tss also just learned the difference between coarse cut and fine cut, only ever had fine cut grinders so I got a course cut one. I also got a factory seconds one since I don't mind imperfection at a good discount. It was gonna inevitably get bumped and scratched through extended use anyways. The top reminds me of a spyro gem lol
Hell yeah you’re gonna love it! It’s one of those that you use a lot so might as well ball out and enjoy it! I already had the Santa Cruz shredder but the BCG is much better. It’s soooo nice. I find myself just picking it up and opening it and twisting the top and looking at it. One thing I was worried about with it being magnetic is that my herb would dry out being in it but it holds the moisture so damn well. I’ve had bud in there for a week and it’s still like a fresh grind. Once you get it let me know how you like it!
Finally got it! So far its totally worth it. The steel feels heavy and durable. I like that its completely magnetic and seemingly much easier to grind. No more dealing with screwing threads every time I want to get to the flower. Also bigger than the chepo so much more flower can be ground at once for much less effort. The bottom bowl is a nice design easy to pinch herb out of. No kief catcher but that's okay the steel screens tend to get clogged up and gunky anyways. Oh and the gemstone top and bottom is a really nice touch, really appeals to me in a 'ooh, shiny crystal!' Way. We will see how resistant to gunking up in the following months!

Glad you’re enjoying it! It’s so nice. I personally enjoy no kief catcher because I think they’re a bit of a waste. Just feel like you’re losing what you should be using and instead it just falls through. Not really a fan of those. The more you use it the more you’ll enjoy it! Really is one of those things where with time you just go “Damn, this is nice”
Love mine! I think they are so worth it, glad I finally got one last year.
It’s soooo nice
Nice! I bought a Santa Cruz Shredder last year and wish I had gone with one of these instead
I also have a Santa Cruz shredder. I use that for thc and using this for CBD and CBG. I had a small shitty one for a while for my CBD and cbg. Had my Cruz for a couple years now. It’s awesome but this one is just so convenient
I love this grinder and is was well worth the money! I have never had to clean it.
Been waiting for this for a while since my finger and wrists aren’t the biggest fan of unscrewing a grinder. It’s so nice!
Enjoy. It will be a splurge for me one day.
