9 Best Cool Weed Grinders: The Ultimate List

The Tectonic9 Manual Herb Grinder with Electric Dispenser combines the best of manual and electric grinders.

It’s not a fully electric grinder, but the motor sure helps you get the job done.

You still have to manually twist the grinder, like with traditional weed grinders. But unlike traditional grinders (where you have to manually scoop out your herb), this machine actually vibrates the herb out through a funneled dispenser. You can place the opening right above your bowl (or vaporizer chamber), and the machine will dispense a perfect waterfall of ground herb directly where you want it.

Full disclosure: I received a free unit to test out. It works perfectly! While many grinders can get gummed up with the resinous byproducts of grinding, the electric vibrations simply dispel all the ground herb at the touch of a button. It’s awesome!

This Electric Herb Grinder With Six Blades stands out because of how fast it grinds your herb. It’s also easy to use, because the lid is shaped like a cup. You just put a few buds into the clear plastic cub, screw on the grinder part, and press the button to start grinding.

It’s a little bit difficult to clean, because herb can get stuck under the blades. You also might need to shake it a few times while it’s grinding, to make sure nothing gets stuck.

But at the end, you just unscrew the top, and you have a neat container full of perfectly fluffy ground herb. This unit also comes with a tiny shovel to help you load your bowl.

The Mandala Design Grinder stands out because it features a mandala, which is a pattern with spiritual significance for many people.

This 2-inch-wide grinder doesn’t just look amazing, thanks to its mandala design. It also functions well.

But that design though. A mandala is a spiritual symbol that represents the universe. This is perfect for anyone who finds themselves thinking about the universe after using their weed grinder. 

It has textured edges for better grip. So you have greasy hands, or if you find yourself dropping metal gadgets for any other reason, this could be a nice feature. Plus the magnets keep the lid firmly attached.

This unit also features a micro-screen and a kief chamber.

This isn’t the biggest grinder on the list. But it might be the most beautiful. The mandala design is so eye-catching, you may find yourself displaying this cannabis grinder in your home, next to your crystals and your yoga mat.

The KINGTOP Wooden Grinder stands out because it’s made of wood, an uncommon material for an herb grinder. This is perfect for people who really love wood, or who are going for a classy or cabin-y aesthetic in their home.

Is it any coincidence that stoners love wood? We love trees. And plants of all kind. 

The Waring Commercial WSG30 Electric Spice Grinder stands out because it’s gigantic. And powerful.

Are you rolling hundreds of joints? We don’t need to know why. (Are you handing them out at a protest? Or just throwing an awesome party?)

No explanations are necessary. (You’re making a music video!) But if you for any reason need to grind weed on an industrial scale, you’ll want a commercial grinder. This one has a brushed stainless steel exterior, so you’ll look pretty pro while pulsing ounces of cannabis into a perfectly ground heap.

A word of warning: This only works with perfectly dry cannabis. If your herb hasn’t been fully dried and cured properly, it will gunk this up.

Side bonus: Apparently, if you decide to switch gears, you can also grind cinnamon sticks in seconds using this unit. And you might want some cinnamon toast, after smoking all 23 joints you just rolled.

This Star Wars Grinder is perfect for anyone who loves Star Wars — especially the droids. And who doesn’t love droids? They’re loyal, and friendly, and have a habit of saving the day by storing important information — which is exactly what BB-8 did, when you stored that secret about Luke Skywalker.

Now BB-8 is ready to help you — by storing and, more importantly, grinding your herb.

And when you think about it, isn’t your herb almost as important as the location of Jedi Master Luke Skywalker?
