I’ll second the Encore. I was hesitant in taking up the counter space since I had a nice hand grinder but the wife surprised me with one and I’ve had no complaints. My 1zpresso now stays at work and/or camping.
Baratza Encore. It a little above your budget but this is the answer. I’ve had mine for a decade with daily use.

yeah can't rec the encore enough. is it cheaper than $150 anywhere? [that's what i'm seeing it for on amazon](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B084HNY3BG/?tag=bestcatreivew-20)
The Barataza Encore is a great choice. Not too expensive and you can buy repair parts. I have used one for years.

I used a hand grinder made in Germany for years but prefer the Encore because I can set the grind size exactly where I want. The hand grinder involved a lot of guessing.

Quite good, fully repairable (they have repair instructional vids on their YT channel, and reasonably priced

I've had this grinder for 6 years. I use it every day. I have had zero issues with it. I use it for pour over, French press, aero press and moka pot. Very versatile and reliable.

Great value for espresso, but clogs and poor for pour-over.
