Pros & Cons
Pros
The espresso grind comes out like a fine powder with no coarseness. The fact that you can simply push in the puck to start the grind is neat feature. The stainless steel burrs ensure precision in every grind.
This thing is a game changer. This is worth every cent if you’re a coffee snob. This grinder also is much cleaner than other grinders.
Lelit bianca v3 espresso machine. Will keep the breville for the rare occasion i want to brew a pot of drip, if i can find my drip machine.
Six years later it works every single day. Never breaks nor clogs.
Cons
Oxo is much better art, $100 less! Searching for the other parts to this machine is also proving difficult. Not good for breville’s reputation for being a high quality brand. Instead premium cost and low quality.
It seems like the motor is underpowered. The burr jammed when grinding espresso from day 1. The jamming sound is super irritating. Hearing the dreaded high pitched screech of the underpowered motor freezing up mid-grind.
This is what they sent back to me stating they would not post my review. We value your contribution however your submission did not meet our review content guidelines. Worked fine for 40 days, now it is not returnable.
It just clicks, like it’s jammed, but it is not. It keeps clogging and is a pain in the neck to keep cleaning.

Just had to decide it was worth investing $200 for a grinder.
At $7 a pop, plus a $5 bacon, gouda and egg, to go with, we are saving $12 a day!
This is worth every cent if you’re a coffee snob.
Shipping
They promptly shipped me out a brand new one after i called them about it.
I need to report that the first grinder amazon shipped had been used previously.

Every other grinder including the expensive gaggia one that i splurged on makes a giant mess everywhere.

It would be nice if there was a better cone for use with espresso portafilters so the grounds wouldnt fall everywhere but the removable catch tray helps to clean everything up
