Much improved over original.

I've been using the K5 for about a year. The original is a versatile tool. With the addition of the new grinder disc, it is even better. Definitely recommended for sticky herb.

It does what they say it does. I had one issue with mine as the magnet the holds in the grind plate fell out. Eventually I found it and glued it back in. If you have old arthritic hands like mine it's a great investment. It will need cleaning regularly. After all, you can push a bunch of product out of this thing.

This is a great upgrade for the K5. Everything is ground usually by the direction change. Not a regrettable purchase.

Does a real nice job . I got one for my vet friend who has bad arthritis. He loves it.
