As an owner of a rock-solid Sweetleaf grinder (one of the original, wood-based pieces), I had high hopes for this simple, yet effective piece of machinery. The brandless wonder was a bit lackluster at first, but upon closer examination, it became evident how much grinders have evolved.

This isn’t your GranPappy’s grinder, insisting it’s presence be felt with 5 stainless-steel interlocking discs (top/grinder/1st screen/2nd screen/catcher) and 24 sharp grinding blades. With two separate levels of screens, there’s no doubt that filtration was high on their priority list, leaving you the finest crystals in the bottom chamber. This grinder is capable of fitting ~2.5 grams at a time and has been machined to last for years. By far, the best feature is the magnetized top, so no more clumsy fumbleiahs Mr. Party Foul. A piece like this will run you about $40 at the local headshop, a rock-solid deal.
