This NutriMill Harvest Stone Grain Mill is heavy and small, though it looks and feels well-made. However the problem with this is that it didn't work well from the moment we received it (maybe it was a fluke, and we received a malfunctioning unit? I don't know). However this didn't work well, and also it is small in size which is not practical for those who want to make big amounts of flour. My family has decided that we won't be eating any bread from outside the house, so the only bread we eat is home-made. We wanted to make our own flour too, and that is why we bought this mill, but it is too small. If this had been bigger and worked better, it would've gotten a good review from me. I think the idea for this mill is good, but it is flawed and therefore not practical for a family's heavy use.

Used it once so far and I love it. I was expecting an extremely noisy shop vac like sound but was pleasantly surprised that unless it is grinding the motor is nearly silent. The construction is very nice and in terms of size and noise I would place it somewhere around one of those old school hot air popcorn poppers. Just wish I knew these things existed sooner.

I love my new mill! It sits on the counter and looks beautiful, and it is so convenient. No flour blowing all over, and no messy cleanup. I can grind enough wheat for a loaf of bread very quickly with enough leftover to make waffles. The flour isn't as fine as with my large Nutrimill, but I actually like that and the ease of use is fabulous. I haven't used it for more that 2 or 3 cups of wheat at a time, so I can't comment on larger batches. It's perfect for my husband and I to use.

This has met and exceeded my expectations in all regards. It is much faster than I anticipated. In less than 60 seconds, I was able to mill enough wheat for 4 full-sized loaves of bread.

In terms of temperature, it does not head the flour very much at all. After about 60 seconds, the flour was coming out at about 40 degrees C.

One thing that got me a little bit (albeit, before reading the manual ...) is that you ABSOLUTELY MUST have the unit running before you put grain in the hopper. If you put the grain in first and then try to start it, the motor won't spin. At first, I thought that I had a broken unit, but then I read the manual. Haha. My bad. "User error".

If I had to pick something "bad" to say, it's that the unit is a little on the loud side. Not nearly enough to cause me to back off of my 5-star rating, but I wanted to make sure people are aware. I usually try to make sure I do all of my milling before the kids are in bed.

Bottom line: I love it and it is a beautiful addition to my countertop.

When looking for a new mill to replace my Nutrimill, I wanted this style of mill. Namely, a mill that takes up minimal counter space and can grind from cracked grain to flour, right into any container. I was debating between the Komo Classic and the Nutrimill Harvest, when I saw a review from some time ago on breadtopia.com that compared the two and showed that the Nutrimill Harvest, when adjusted like the Komo (turn the bowl/knob clockwise till the stones touch, then back off a little) produced a much coarser flour. He showed that to make it fine enough you had to have the stones touch then keep turning even more. Even then the flour was not as fine as the Komo. I bought the Komo. And it is excellent, and behaves just as described.
However, I later wanted a second mill for a different location, and wished to keep the cost down. While researching, I noticed a review by the same person on breadtopia.com which stated that the Nutrimill Harvest had been updated and now worked quite satisfactorily. The new version has a button on the top left for quick release of the hopper. I decided to try it. My experience, however, is that it works just like the first one reviewed on breadtopia.com. If you turn the adjusting know clockwise until the stones just touch, then back off a hair, you get a very coarse flour. To do better, you have to keep turning further clockwise after the stones have touched. With my Komo ,I not only don't do that, I back of several marks after touching and still get an excellent flour.
So while this mill works for most of my needs, it is, in my experience, not comparable to my Komo. Perhaps the issue is quality control, and a different one would be better. I have no way of knowing.
