Virtuoso+ Coffee Grinder vs Skerton Pro Ceramic Coffee Mill: which fits under your cabinets

Virtuoso+ Coffee Grinder is 5.1 in (13 cm) wide, 5.9 in (15 cm) deep and 13.4 in (34 cm) tall (baratza.com, 6 September 2026). Skerton Pro Ceramic Coffee Mill is 6.6 in (16.7 cm) wide, 3.7 in (9.5 cm) deep and 7.7 in (19.5 cm) tall (hario-usa.com, 27 September 2026). Height separates them by more than anything else, 5.7 in (14.5 cm). With 13.4 in (34 cm) of height or more, both fit; between 7.7 in (19.5 cm) and 13.4 in (34 cm) only the Skerton Pro Ceramic Coffee Mill clears; below 7.7 in (19.5 cm) neither does. Every figure behind this is a manufacturer's published dimension, and nobody has put a tape on one.

Your counter decides it.

If the counter is tight: the Skerton Pro Ceramic Coffee Mill. If you have the height: the Virtuoso+ Coffee.

Between 7.7 in (19.5 cm) and 13.4 in (34 cm) only the Skerton Pro Ceramic Coffee Mill (MMCS-2B) clears. At 13.4 in (34 cm) or more the height decides nothing, and under 7.7 in (19.5 cm) neither of them fits. (manufacturer)

We are not picking one. Your counter picks it, and yours is the measurement missing from this page.
