    I have one. It now does a decent job for me.

    Out of the box its finest setting is too coarse but the Amazon reviews give instructions on how to modify it.

    I didn't have 4 times the money to spend and am pleased I didn't.

    Probably OK for anything other than espresso, can't imagine the grounds are consistent

    I have one. Although I am no expert when it comes to coffee I am very pleased with it. I would be interested to know why you dislike it.

    I have one too and I've modified it use for espresso (Gaggia Classic). Have been using for around 2 years now. Grinds look consistent, but I have nothing to compare it to apart from a Hario Mini Mill.

    Bought one of these. First use was fine, very pleased. Took it out this morning for the second time and it's totally dead. Following the instructions to a tee, but can't see what's wrong.

    Anything obvious I should check before sending it back?

    Make sure the hopper lid and the ground coffee catcher (with lid on) are firmly in place. There may also be some ground coffee in the gaps which they close into so make sure these are clean also.

    Aye, I've done that, and taken out the burr to make sure there's nothing caught in it. Think it's just kaput.

    Annoyingly, Amazon won't replace, just refund, and it's doubled in price, so I can't just buy it again. Will give the Delonghi customer service a go on monday, but I think it's curtains for this little guy!
