Virtuoso Grinder

I know some of you may have had great luck with this grinder but! I bought a Virtuoso Grinder just before Christmas as part of my kitchen renovation and it is the biggest POS I have ever owned. My cheap KitchenAid did a much better job. I have had an email stream going with the manufacture to no avail. Just an FYI Stay away from this brand. Sorry had to vent.

You know i had one as a refurb a while back, it lasted 30 seconds before plastic bits came out with the grounds, 2 mins later it was sealed back in its box for return.

Got a Mazzer and never looked back.

Sorry to hear that. I hope you get your money back.

I'm with Root, got a Mazzer Mini.

Compak K3 looks like a good unit too.

Keep us posted.
