Yeah like dubtap said it's got a rubber seal and the plastic is smoked (anti UV?) so it's going to be better than the tweety pie tin I've been using until now. At a guess I'd say it would hold 500-700g of beans. It's a little bigger than the wilfa svart and maybe not quite as good as the mc2 if you're doing espresso based on the things I've read but it'll do fine for me. I think the espresso grumbles were because the grind setting is detented not continuous although the steps seem pretty small. I'm not a home espresso nerd though so I didn't pay that much attention.
Edit: attached a photo showing 250g of beans in the hopper
My sage smart pro arrived today. Definitely good enough for stovetop but double your £100
