Baratza

(40)
"Baratza Encore grinder"
"In automatic I would suggest you to go for baratza encore, it’s a workhorse and extremely hardy."
"The **Baratza Encore** is a highly recommended coffee grinder for pour-over brewing."
"The **Baratza Encore** is highly recommended for French press brewing."
"Baratza Encore"
"Baratza Encore."
"I'll mimic others, the Baratza Encore is great."
"Ditto the Baratza. My husband and I have owned a coffee company for 40 years."
"If you want something near to a BIFL grinder, it's Baratza."
"An ideal choice for you should be the Baratza Encore at $149.95."

Timemore

(39)
"Buying a C2/C3 is the absolute best grinder money buys."
"Getting a Timemore C2 is the best advice there is."
"Buy timemore C2."
"Just get a hand grinder like the C2."
"Good quality electric grinders are not cheap. I'd suggest C2."
"Timemore Chestnut C2. Can be had on Amazon for under $70."
"Timemore C2 - $80."
"The timemore c2 is a manual grinder and an absolute beast."
"Go for Timemore C2 & you won't regret it."
"A little bit of both"

1Zpresso

(27)
"I love my 1zpresso."
"1Zpresso X Ultra, love it through and through!!"
"External adjustment makes my workflow much easier."
"Cannot really go wrong there, personally I'm a great fan of 1zpresso."
"1zpresso! Whichever model works for your criteria!"
"I have the 1zpresso x Ultra and love it."
"If you're okay with hand grinding, get the 1zpresso JX-Pro."
"Any 1zpresso grinder, honestly."
"1zpresso K-Ultra or DF64 with stock burrs."
"I really enjoy my ZP6, which provides clean and bright acidity for coffee."

Fellow
4.2
(13)
"I have a gen 1 Fellow Ode with gen 2 burrs. Love it."
"I am a big fan of fellow ode grinders. They’re excellent and easy to maintain."
"Refurb gen 1 Ode"
"Perfect grinder for anyone who mostly brews filter coffee and or wants a grinder they can upgrade later"
"We have the Ode, because my husband likes coffee."
"Amazon has the Fellows Opus on sale right now for $156."
"I use a fellow opus that I bought on eBay for $95. I really like it."
"I’d get whatever grinder I could afford that I could install the SSP CAST burrs into."
"The usual recommendations at the moment for either filter (Fellow Ode) or espresso (Varia VS3 among some others) would be above 300 pounds, so two grinders is probably also not the greatest idea."
"Relatively new, and came out in February"

Kingrinder
4.6
(10)
"I just got a kingrinder K6 and absolutely love it."
"I just pulled the trigger on the Kingrinder K6 - seems like they always have a $30 off coupon on amazon."
"I bought a Kingrinder K1 for $40, and it’s great."
"Get something from KINGrinders....their products hit way above their weight class."
"Supremely good build quality and easy to dial in for espresso"
"For $100-150 you want to look at hand grinders like the Kingrinder K6. I recently got one and love it. I think it makes espresso as good as my Eureka 4x the price."
"I don't think you can get a good electric grinder for that much money at the moment."
"Kingrinder K4 (if still available) or K6 is probably going to be your best option."
"Well-regarded here"
"Solid option, with 48mm burrs and decent capacity"

Eureka

(10)
"Save some dollars and buy the specialita from ECS."
"A little bit of both"
"I can pretty confidently dial in any coffee on my MaraX."
"We used Eureka coffee grinders ($200+)"
"You're better off with something like a second hand Eureka Mignon."
"Eureka Crono is definitely better at the ~$200 price range."
"Eureka Libra for the convenience."
"All the eureka mignon series I can adjust with my non-dominant have without moving the grinder."
"I have a eureka mignon and I use it one handed."
"Eureka Atom Pro. Can even operate with a nose."

"DF64. Your best bet, don't skimp on the other electric grinders."
"Get timemore c2 on sale for 3500."
"I would say df64 with ssp hu burrs."
"I recommend something like the DF64 with SSP burrs."
"The Df64 gen 2 is much better."
"Df64 with ssp mp v2."

Turin

"With those on the market, nothing cheaper is worth it."
"Look at a Turin SK40 stepless grinder. Espresso outlet dot com sells it for under $200."
"For $300-350 you unlock some of the “motorized hand grinders” which are small electric grinders meant for low volume. The Turin SK40 comes to mind."
