I was lucky enough to snag a batch 2 DF54 and I got it about a month after ordering. This thing really makes good espresso possible. I was using a Timemore C3 before and couldn't get a good shot. This really changes the game. The burrs came perfectly aligned. The stepless adjustment is great. I wish this grinder hadn't tried to be a filter grinder too, because the range for espresso isn't huge. Stepless helps a lot though in that regard. No mechanical issues. Very solid grinder with good build quality that should last for years to come. This is a necessity if you are on a budget but still want to make espresso, it's the best grinder in the price range.
