Well, you can get a good one for about 30 bucks. The KitchenAid Blade coffee grinder is on sale at Amazon for 30 bucks and I have heard many good things about this coffee grinder. If you want to spend a little more for a great coffee grinder, try the Capresso 560.01...they run between 90-110 bucks - pretty steep for just a coffee grinder. I think the KitchenAid will do just fine though, for regular home use.
