Comandante C40 MK4 Nitro Blade Snow White
He is beautiful. I chose white.
It holds well, the ball on the handle is pleasant in the hand.
Grinds quickly and easily (switched from porlex mini). I enjoy the sound of grinding.
The coffee tastes good.
It seems to be grinding well. I haven't looked into consistency much yet because of static issues (see negatives). It always cracks me up.
I wonder if my rating is harsh, but if I knew about the static issues with the camandante, I would very likely choose a different grinder. Too bad none of the previous reviewers mentioned them. I was deciding between electric Wilfa, Fellow or this one. I have a Wilfa Svart at home (which I complained about twice due to engine problems, but the third one is running and I am satisfied). At work, I wanted to replace the old Porlex Mini with something that grinds well, faster and with less effort. The Comandante fulfills this requirement and I found grinding by hand to work fine, unfortunately the ground coffee with it behaves like an experiment in physics class with a fox tail and an ebonite rod. After grinding, it is stuck with static electricity from all sides of the container and the bottom of the grinder. You have to shake it so it doesn't fly to the sides when opened and even then it's not perfect, you leave a mess that you have to clean up (which you don't want at work) and it takes time. The rest of the coffee is kept from the bottom of the grinder and in the container. If I had to decide again, I don't know if I would rather choose the electric Wilfa.

Comandante C40 MK4 Nitro Blade Alpine Lagoon
Incredible grinding speed
Grinding consistency
Capacity up to 40g of coffee
Beautiful design, I fell in love with the Alpine Lagoon color
Replaceable lower part of the grinder for ground coffee. Dark and light. With each of them, the grinder looks a little different, but still beautiful. In addition, it is possible to store ground coffee in them, e.g. for traveling.
Robustness of the grinder
The package does not include any accessories for the grinder - brush, packaging. For cleaning, I use tools from the previous grinder (Timemore)
When traveling, I would recommend using a cover - either the official Comandante or another

Comandante C40 MK4 Nitro Copper Mountain
Very consistent grind
Very fast grinding
Sufficient adjustment fineness
Ergonomics
Easy maintenance
Quality of processing, materials
For that price, there could be at least a case/cover + at least some cleaning accessories
Less compact (Not quite suitable for travel)

Comandante C40 MK4 Nitro Blade Liquid Amber
Cuts really smooth, top espresso!
Beautiful design
The grinder has a long handle and is not storable, so it is quite difficult to travel with.
If they supplied a canvas bag with it, it would be nice.

Comandante C40 MK4 Nitro Blade Snow White
the white variant is perfectly combined with containers of different colors, it can be elegant or cheerful, according to taste and mood
it's not exactly a negative, but I would appreciate it if the manufacturer added at least some basic case/packaging to the package

I can compare with the MK3 version. In the MK4 version, the upper part is better solved, where when pouring the grains before grinding, none can fit between the axis and the plastic frame of the grinder.
Overall, I find MK4 grinds better than MK3. Maybe it's just that I have the MK3 with a wooden surface that slides more in my hand.
It is not worth buying Red Clix for the filter

Comandante C40 MK4 Nitro Copper Mountain
Really solid processing
Consistent grinding
Simple disassembly and cleaning
Lots of accessories and spare parts
Stylish packaging
Quite high retention, with some coffees you need to add 1 g more, the "norm" is ~0.5 g extra
It slips a little in your hand when you don't hold it very firmly - solved by the supplied rubber wristband

Comandante C40 MK4 Nitro Blade Liquid Amber
a dream come true
precise processing, elegant design
consistently ground coffee
easy grinding, no jamming, fast
grinding coarseness setting
the loop is attached via a magnet and does not fall out when grinding
clean resulting coffee
weight 577 g (not a negative, higher weight compensated by quality and processing)
the handle is firmly attached with a cap - the 3D size is harder to fit in a backpack (not a negative, I'd be happy to find room for this grinder in my backpack)

This grinder is in a different league, from design to functionality.
The grinding consistency is 100%.
It is heavier in the hand.

Comandante C40 MK4 Nitro Blade Black
German obsession with perfectionism, an iconic grinder, a legend. The incomprehensible consistency of chopped coffee beans. Must have.
I did not find any negatives, probably there are none. High end from precise packaging to cut grains.

Comandante C40 MK4 Nitro Blade Black
Execution
Great service
I don't regret switching from the Hario Sketron plus, I should have done it sooner, the difference is brutal and the price is worth it, especially if you catch the price promotion.
Easy cleaning
Option to upgrade to a higher level thanks to Red clix
