Back when I first got my "medical" card....lol....I figured I'd better go all-in and get all the cool components for the modern smoking experience. At the time, the Mendo Mulcher was one of the coolest-looking grinders, so I bought one.
I think I used it a few times, but, in the end, the weed was too sticky and got all gummed up in the teeth so I decided that scissor-trimming worked even better, so I bought some nice scissors.
Mostly, now, I just carefully break off little "budlets" and use them in my snap bowl. As little handling of the material as possible seems to allow the greatest preservation of trichomes.
