Bottom Line: The best coffee grinder I've ever used, but you'd think they'd provide higher build quality for that kind of price.

Bottom Line: The gold standard of dosered home espresso grinders - not without its faults (no grinder is perfect) but still good value for money

Bottom Line: I can't imagine upgrading to another grinder, or this ever breaking -- but if a new doser(less) kit were to come out, I would definately upgrade the machine with it. Other than that, this is pretty much the standard for quality grinding.
