Note about water hardness
Using hard water will ruin your espresso machine. Soft water no higher than 50ppm is required to keep your espresso machine running for the long term. Using hard water will void the warranty.

Infinitely adjustable. Consistent grinds. Minimal retention so no need to purge when changing grind sizes. It is tedious to go from coarse to fine grind sizes because of the stepless mechanism, so don't get this if you will be making large changes in grind size. But if you are looking for a sub $200 quality grinder for dialing in espresso, this is the one for you. Kudos to the staff at Espresso Outlet for steering me in the right direction! Prompt service!

In perfect condition, looks like it was never used at all. Easy to use, and makes no mess unlike my last grinder.

the grinder was easy to setup and shipping was fast.

This grinder has shown me the difference between truly fine and truly coarse grounds vs those done with a blade that just spins them around. It’s easy to use and looks nice on my counter top. With the combination of being more intentional about the beans I buy and brewing them differently, I’d say this has contributed to assisting with better taste as well. So far, I’d say it was worth the purchase.

Solidly built machine, but it was confusing to figure out how to adjust the grind size. When I received the grinder, settings 1–19 all produced a fairly fine grind, and I had to go past 19 for another full turn to get a slightly coarser grind suitable for pour-over. It's a pain to change the grind size if you're switching between espresso and pour-over. If that's a deal breaker, it might be better to consider a different grinder.
