I've only had this for a few weeks so far, but it's been working great. Grind sizes seem relatively consistent and fluffy, and there don't appear to be any noticeable alignment issues that I can tell. Huge upgrade from a hand grinder for my workflow!
I had no idea the large gap of quality of grinder verses the Breville Smart Grinder Pro or the Baratza Encore. Massive quality jump for not much more money. Best improvement that I have made in my espresso game.
Took a while to arrive, but I got it cheaper than most other places online think 215 before tax. Has worked well the few times I've used it I csn actually dial in my espresso a lot better and can taste the change in flavor (still dialing my shots in) highly recommend and the customer service just to ask questions and get responses is top tier
I have had my cf64v for a couple months now and it's been nothing but fantastic. I use mine solely for espresso and it makes dialing in a very easy process. You can make very minor adjustments to grind size and it has virtually 0 retention. I can't recommend this grinder enough, it's phenomenal.
This grinder works very well especially considering its price. The only issue I have so far is that it sometimes takes more than one press of the button to start the machine. Sometimes it can take up to three time for the grinder to stay running. I think this is a case of a defective product but I am reluctant to try to get it resolved because of how long I had to wait for espresso outlet to ship my grinder. I feel like I would rather just accept this issue and deal with it than wait a few more months to get it fixed or replaced.
