Gene Counts (quality: 7.7)	09.04.2012	Rating: 9.6
Bottom Line: It just hurts to see negative reviews of a machine that is so versatile from folks who may not be using it correctly. If you play her like a lady and really stroke her she will respond with some really good loving!

Jeff Winett (quality: 5.3)	09.03.2012	Rating: 6.0
Bottom Line: Do I search for a more reliable machine, or do I factor in the higer net cost of home roasted coffee beans, by purchasing the same roaster every few years?

John LaPlante (quality: 6.0)	05.19.2012	Rating: 5.2
Bottom Line: Great roaster but poor motor life and no support.

Peter Hogarth	12.13.2010	Rating: 6.2
Bottom Line: Still looking for the perfect home roaster. Meanwhile, this is what I will use.

Mat Watson (quality: 8.0)	10.10.2009	Rating: 8.8
Bottom Line: After finding this roasters temperature 'sweet spot', achieving the desired roast has been easy, and the taste has been excellent.

Roger Cole (quality: 6.0)	09.19.2009	Rating: 5.4
Bottom Line: $500 should buy a home roaster made with quality components. The Gene Cafe isn't. I am looking for a better roaster.
