Tbh I love my Niche, but that price is too high. I would wait a bit and see if you can find one used.
When I had a Niche Zero I almost bought a Fellow Ode with the SSP Burrs for brew usage. Got a Niche Duo instead just to keep the counter tidier.
I have 4. A C40 and a Zp6 for pour over (one stays at work). And a DF64V and a niche zero for espresso. Got the Df64V to try flat burrs for espresso so might sell the niche but tempted to keep it for dark roasts.
I use it all the time. It's great!
You can get a niche zero around that price. Solid grinder
I have a niche zero and just ordered a timemore 064s to experiment with more clarity
Niche Zero, 700eu. For workflow and footprint.
This is the main reason I got rid of mine. The niche is amazing! I love mine. I strongly advise that one. Even if you need to wait longer for the higher investment. Or do the buy once cry once deal.
If you were to save up a few extra quid, you could grab a niche zero grinder and a gaggia classic (Classic Evo Pro 2024 or Classic Pro E24 if you want new). The niche zero is a modern coffee grinder that has basically blown away the competition. Most other grinders are going to be much bigger or cost a lot more. The gaggia classic has a huge fanbase about it and there are lots of mods and upgrades if you like to tinker but this set-up will easily last you 10-20 years until you decide to spend stupid money on something [decent](https://decentespresso.com/overview) IMO if you go for anything less than this, you will be back within 2 years asking about which machine/grinder to upgrade to Edit: you could go full manual espresso if you want cheaper but the workflow is going to be much slower, you won't be able to do multiple drinks back to back and you lose the ability to do proper milk-based drinks
I own a niche and a timore sculptor 64s. The sculptor costs less tastes better for espresso and can do pour over.
