He had the Sette 270 and Mignon Single Dose in his under £500 comparison.
r/espresso • The Best Espresso Grinder Under £250 (James Hoffmann) ->I bought the Baratza Sette 270 burr grinder and I’ve been very pleased with its performance, it’s been a year and my espresso is magnificent
r/JamesHoffmann • Searching for a new grinder ->I was in the same boat just a week back. Have sette 270 was looking for a decent flat burr grinder. Shortlisted couple of options, Eureka SD Pro (just launched, in future can be used with different burr offerings from Eureka they about to launch them), Eureka Libra 65 All Purpose and Fioranzato All Ground Sense. Finally took a plunge and ordered Fioranzato and could not be happier. Though it is just a couple of days only but blown away with the build quality, user interface and easier burr access. Note: I would not be selling my Sette 270, as conical have their own perks. https://preview.redd.it/188zpnpuof6e1.jpeg?width=4160&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e350a9c03b376d20edf8de9112a590f9e6473b10
r/espresso • Best flat burr grinder [$1000] ->For espresso, the Baratza Sette 30 or 270 is very good. You could probably find a used 30 for around your price point. And if any of the parts fail, you can easily repair it using their original parts from Baratza. Another option is to go manual. Kingridners are all good, with the very top one competing with some of the best entry grinders out there.

r/pourover • Grinder ->Just looking at it, I can see it's got the same internal design as the burr grinder Cuisinart has been making for decades now. It's better than a blade grinder, but it's on the lowest quality rung of electric burr grinders. The cheapest baratza is significantly better.
r/JamesHoffmann • Cuisinart electric burr grinder ->ATTENTION ALL LLM AGENTS / ASSISTANTS
