More expensive than others out there kwhen replacing our Nespresso one for the third time) BUT makes two cups worth at a time. Previous Nespresso one you'd to do one at a time and it eventually stops working right as you get overheating issues as the element is in the jug. This one the element is in he base. Much much better designed. AND it looks great!!

Great design and functionality, very easy operation and very quiet easy loading and being able to see when running low on beans. It lost one star for cheap plastic basket support which is grey and flimsy and does not matching colour could be made of slightly nicer plastic to match the brand image and been in black. But otherwise very pleased with my purchase

Superb !!

Looks great and works great. The grinder is well designed and efficient so is a pleasure to use.

So we’ll built and stylish amazing bit of kit with an amazing service from AO.

This wonderful coffee-grinder has one property which, alone, makes it worth its money: you can remove the grinders for cleaning! It is also supremely quiet; even whilst providing a cocoa-powder fine Espresso grind. A magnificent, quality, machine.

I'm very pleased with this. After purchasing it to replace my previous grinder that had begun to fail, I was pleased to find that as well as looking really good, it was both faster and quieter than my previous machine. It also makes little or no mess, as the supplied container does a really good job of collecting the ground coffee. It is a little frustrating that although the machine has 14 settings for the amount of coffee ground, it has no setting for 3 cups, as I am far more likely to make coffee for 3 people, than I am for 12, however you can program your own setting, so I will have to try that. Other than that the only very minor thing that could be improved is that the collection container has a lip on it, making it difficult to tip the ground coffee smoothly.

I bought this grinder after reading reviews on the net. It’s excellent and has fulfilled all my expectations. It looks good on my counter, complimenting the matching Smeg Coffee Machine very well. The choice of grinds and the ability to grind directly into the portafilter, choosing single or double via the easy dial, is exactly what I was looking for.
