It’s solidly built, works great, all parts are replaceable and if you need parts or advice all you need to do is mail Baratza.
I’ve owned it for 15 years now and it still works just as well as the day I bought it.
Edit: I also bought an expensive 1zpresso hand mill (a K ultra?) from someone who had buyer’s remorse. Sometimes I don’t want to make tons of noise grinding coffee in the middle of the night and it’s nice to have a quiet way to grind for a cup. It’s built as solidly as the electric grinder so I’m pretty sure I’ll have it for life as well. Both were great BIFL purchases.
