I'd go with the Krups. Just note that if you need to grind for 12 cups of coffee, you may need to do two batches in the grinder to meet the amount needed. I've had a Cuisinart grinder about the same size as the Krups you pictured for many years - still purring along.
I'm sure you noted that one of those grinders on the ratings page you linked to is a "burr" grinder, where you hand-crank to grind the beans. Burr grinding gets much higher reviews than electric grinding, (creates a much more uniform size grind than electric) but you're doing the work to grind. Much quieter than electric grinding, though.
