I bought this coffee grinder once I swapped my espresso machine's pressurized basket for a non-pressurized one, and I realized my hand grinder wasn't up to the task anymore. The Encore ESP totally met my needs, it grinds coffee more than fine enough for my DeLonghi Dedica and has improved my non-espresso coffee brewing as well. Its small footprint was a big reason why I chose it, and it looks tiny beside an already compact espresso machine. I was very pleasantly surprised by the quick and fairly silent grinding action (especially compared to other electric burr grinders I've had experience with) and the ease of use as well as how simple it is to disassemble it for cleaning. The only downside I can think of after a few weeks of use is that when grinding on finer settings it tends to retain some coffee grounds, but given everything else I mentioned I couldn't ask for more at this price.

• + quick and fairly silent (for a coffee grinder)
• + price
• + small footprint
• + grinds fine enough for my espresso machine
• + easy and intuitive operation

• - a fair amount of retention of ground coffee, especially on finer settings

Perfect in all ways, arrive on time and it was exactly like the videos and reviews I've saw.
