Many people look for grinders that they can use for their herbs, weed, or marijuana.

Teeth come in many different shapes, sizes, as well as the number that a grinder can have. Most have as little as 25 to more than 50 teeth with a diamond shaped pattern. Because this is the part which does all the work, its important you choose which is the most effective when it comes to grinding your stuff.

The holes on a shredder allow the ground herb to drop or fall into the second compartment. Many brands utilize circular hole pattern, while there are those who use other patterns such as oval shaped holes. What you need to remember in choosing one is to look for the pattern which would allow only the completely ground material to fall into the second compartment.

Shredder lids should also have magnets on them, although there may also be others that will not. Ensure that you choose a shredder with properly attached magnets on both lids so as to prevent them from popping off. When shredding, there is a tendency for both the lids to come off and cause spillage which is why its vital to choose one that is sturdy.

Nowadays, grinders have also evolved from the conventional to more stylish and fit your lifestyle designs. Manufacturers have added handles for easier holding while there are also those who have made the screens removable for cleaning. Ensure that you choose one which does not sacrifice its performance for its design.

Extras such as carry pouches or scrapers also come when you purchase such. Although others may not, these are very helpful especially the pouch in terms of protecting your tool. There are brands that come with extra scrapers, too.
