We purchased the Breville BCG450XL Ikon Conical Burr Grinder from Amazon on June 18, 2008 and were very pleased with its performance.I was about to write a positive product review.However, yesterday, March 29, 2009, the on/off switch (the one on the side and which is redundant to the one on the front) failed (fell apart in pieces actually) and the product is now useless.On examination, the on of switch was so poorly designed with such non-durable materials that I am suprised it didn't fail much sooner.
Needless to say, we didn't get our money's worth out of this product. Don't waste your money!

Other highlights include a variable timer with 10 to 30 seconds of grind time, anti-static technology, and a removable burr for convenient cleaning.
