Craig Kelliher (quality: 6.0)	10.10.2007	Rating: 8.8
Bottom Line: Best price performer on the market. Solid build, consistent results, stable weight, easy adjustability. Compact, handsome, tough. Kinda like Brad Pitt.

Dave Mclennan (quality: 1.8)	10.06.2011	Rating: 4.0

Eero Simoncelli (quality: 9.1)	12.30.2006	Rating: 7.8
Bottom Line: Reasonable value for the price. A few outstanding features, and a few drawbacks that can be worked around.

Frederick Schechter (quality: 6.3)	09.02.2006	Rating: 1.2
Bottom Line: Do not buy this machine! We have been Beta-testers for Baratza. If you must buy it or one of its off-shoots, call Baratza and ask for the new "SWEET" machine!!

Bottom Line: It works, no quirks.

Howard Pierson (quality: 7.0)	03.08.2008	Rating: 8.8
Bottom Line: This is a great grinder for its niche, one can get better, but you will have to pay more, and be seriously addicted to Barista quality espresso.
