I've just taken delivery of a MC2 auto and am very disappointment in the build quality. I initially thought that I'd been sent a reconditioned model!!
The short chute has quite a few deep scratches.
The Iberital logo and plastic portafilter arms and body retaining clip seem to been put on by someone with a blind fold (they have been put on at a strange angle).
The grinder body itself wobbles on the plastic base.
The base does not seem to be flat.
I've heard that MC 2 grinder is the best under $350, but am I just unlucky? I've got the option of a refund or exchange for another more expensive model. I don't really want to spend any more, but can someone suggest the best option? I've not used as yet as may need to go back. Thanks
