Yeah, pretty good! I'm a few kilos in and getting some really tasty coffee out of it. Just a load of basic espresso blends, nothing fancy or adventurous at this point (or any filter except for some decaf).
It's not making 'better' espresso than my Kinu but just presents the flavours a different way (clarity and brightness are the pretentious buzzwords at play). I can see how it'd really shine when I get some more fruit-forward beans or lighter roasts. It's also not that much quicker than handgrinding, especially if I slowfeed.
Overall, for 15mins wiring and ~£225 all in I'm really happy. It's solid, it lets me enjoy coffee, more than anything, I'm glad I won't feel like I'm missing out with shiny new grinder tech and SSP this and that. Zero regrets.
Edit: a lot of the enjoyment also comes from quality of life upgrades over handgrinders. So easy to remember/find different settings when swapping between brew methods. And dialling in new beans is infinitely less tedious.
