How Does the GrindeROO Fare Against the K-mart Coffee Grinder?

K-mart Coffee Grinder vs GrindeROO

The Two Aussie Grinders That Are Crushing It, Down Under!

Everyone has their grinder of choice! From ‘hippy picking’ with your hands, or good ol’ scissors, to dedicated dry herb grinders, or electronic machines that take the back-breaking labour out of ‘chopping up’ – there are so many ways of breaking down buds into smaller, more consumable pieces.

Two Aussie products that stand out from the rest are the famed K-mart ‘muzzer’, a commercial success – and our product, the 4-Piece OG GrindeROO. Today, we'll compare our premium, grassroots herb grinder with K-mart's easy-chop solution.

In the Red Corner...

The K-Mart Coffee Grinder – known in some communities simply as a ‘muzzer’, sometimes even a ‘whizzer’. At first, this thing may just seem like a humble coffee grinder… but it represents more – much more. In fact, some would argue that this national treasure’s greatest utility is never even mentioned in its marketing.

We’ve covered the K-mart grinder before… and not without good reason, either. This baby has earned its place as a household name, and a K-mart bestseller.

No, really – this thing whizzes like a champ! Just check out the very real reviews for this product on K-mart’s website…

In the Blue Corner...

Okay, so the ‘muzzer’ is iconic – but let’s run it up against US, the competition! Take the humble OG dry herb grinder, for instance.

This product ultimately seems like a practical solution to a practical stoner problem – it’s sleek, durable, portable, stylish, fun, and its 4-piece chamber is more than fit for purpose. These are some of the reasons why it has established itself as a favourite grind among members of the Australian cannabis community!

Who Will Win?!

In this article, we’re putting grinder up against grinder… in a battle for the finest, most brilliant chop in the land.

GRIND-OFF: MUZZER VS. OG ROO! FIGHT!

GrindeROO vs the K-mart Coffee Grinder

There are some big differences that set these two grinders apart. The GrindeROO is small, portable, and requires no electricity. In contrast, the K-mart Coffee Grinder is a larger, yet more economical form of 'muzz overkill', resulting in an extra-fine chop.

If that’s your vibe, the muzzer is for you! If it isn’t, you may want to stay away – this thing can destroy buds. Another downside is that the muzz needs a power outlet, meaning it can only be used in certain contexts.

If we’re going off space-age aesthetics and futuristic design alone… both fare pretty well against each other, with their sleek ergonomics and curves.

There are other things they both do – like collect kief! The muzzer seems to do it a tad better with its lid – however, this could also be considered a downside of its own, as you do lose a lot of terps and cannabinoids through this process (which you don’t with the GrindeROO!).

All in all, the K-mart Coffee Grinder requires less elbow grease – but it’s also not exactly an environmentally sustainable option. Not only do their plastic lids break relatively easily, with their blades wearing down – they also require power, as stated before. Talk about fossil fuels!

The GrindeROO has a real appeal as an everyday product – it really can be used anywhere, with great results! It’s also an Aussie-designed product – which means you’re supporting an Australian small business when you purchase it.

Who Reigns as Champion?

Where does that leave us, blow for blow?

The GrindeROO and the K-mart Grinder both clearly excel in different ways – and from your own perspective, one or the other may have already taken precedence in your life. That's fine, of course.

Our team may be a little biased - but we go for the GrindeROO in our day-to-day. Not only is it the classic grinder, done to a T – buying one also supports a small Australian business.

No gimmicks, no overkill, and no power required – just a quick use of your hands, and voila! A perfect chop, and a flexible daily driver that you can keep with you for years.
