Tiny footprint is a lifesaver on my cluttered counter, yet the 38 mm steel burrs still chew through beans fast enough for a quick morning shot. The grind consistency has been spot-on for my espresso, and the Italian build feels solid enough to last years.

The grind setting dial clicks with a satisfying precision that makes dialing in for espresso feel almost foolproof, and the 38mm conical burrs have stayed perfectly consistent across three weeks of daily use. It’s genuinely quiet for a grinder this size, which my early-morning brain appreciates.

It takes up barely any counter space, which is exactly what I needed, and the 38 mm conical steel burrs grind consistently fine for my espresso routine. The on-demand dosing means I’m not wasting beans, and cleanup is surprisingly easy for such a compact machine.
