Bottom Line: Works for drip grind, but the Barista won't meet the needs of most baristas.

Frank S (quality: 6.0)	12.29.2004	Rating: 5.4
Bottom Line: Summary -- A good bargain that became a doorstop when I couldn’t grind my favorite dark roast.

Peter Russell (quality: 7.3)	12.11.2004	Rating: 7.6
Bottom Line: half the price of the rancilio rocky, and probably 65% as good as one. that makes it a value. just be ready to work with it.

Owen Evans (quality: 4.8)	11.12.2004	Rating: 7.4
Bottom Line: Solis makes a great product for Starbucks and I am chuffed!

Reed Nelson (quality: 2.2)	11.08.2004	Rating: 8.8
Bottom Line: Look... if you are just getting started in the home Barista routine, buy Barista products. Sure, there are better for much more $$$, but walk B4 you run!
