By Lisa Kelly


Many people look for grinders that they can use for their herbs, weed, or marijuana. But there are many of these people who do not know how to look for high quality ones that do not endanger their health. Truth be told, those that you see in gas stations or head shops may not be as reliable as they seem because they can be dangerous.

Because there are many of these things that you can pick from, it is vital for you to be able to know what you need to look for when you are going to buy one. There are many important considerations that one needs to keep in mind when choosing herb grinders. The following paragraphs will provide information on the things that you might need to look for when buying one.

There are three materials that a shredder can be made out of, wood, plastic, and metal. There are many advantages and disadvantages for all types of materials and it is up to you to determine which one suits you. Keep in mind that it is inconvenient for you to buy something because of its looks or because it is cheap.

The teeth on shredders are an important feature as it is what is going to do the work for your herb. Depending on the primary material, the teeth can be made of plastic, metal, or nails. When choosing, consider the teeth that it has because it will determine the overall performance of the tool.

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.

When grinding, there is a tendency for the parts to fall apart which would cause the contents to spill. One thing you need to look at are those with magnets on their lids as such will keep it from popping off or falling apart. Look for ones with magnets that are not only strong but also properly attached so as to prevent coming loose overtime.

Most have also incorporated a dash of style and design to most grinders to cater to many individuals. There are manufacturers who have placed handles on them to allow for easier grip while there are also those who came up with removable screens. Choose one that will not only be stylish but will make the grinding process easier.

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.
