Multipurpose consumer grinder with two grind selectors - a macro and a micro selection, providing hundreds of possible settings. Conical burrs, grind bin and an optional portaholder for espresso portafilters round out the grinder.

Bottom Line: Excellent grinder for a very wide range of grinding needs-- including espresso (or so I hear).

Bottom Line: Overall, it's a very solid grinder for the price you pay and I'm not sure that you can do better for $300. Solid build quality, excellent customer service, and excellent grind quality. I couldn't ask for more.

Bottom Line: Considering a Baratza Preciso? Sure, it is a good product; at least that's what I hear.
Sam Decock (quality: 8.0) 01.28.2012 Rating: 8.6
Bottom Line: If you are looking for a do-everything workhorse that excels across the entire grind spectrum without the $500+ price tag, this is the grinder for you. It is aesthetically pleasing, simple and easy to use, and has a world class customer service backing.

Stewart Emery (quality: 7.0) 03.19.2011 Rating: 9.6
Bottom Line: This is a terrific grinder and an extraordinary value - espresso results in the cup are right up there with the most expensive grinders - easy to get from espresso to French Press and back
