$950 for Sydney to Tokyo still seems pretty meh. Anyone have a wild guess to how much Jetstar return flights would run during their usual…

Nah, there’s new controllers to be released soon. Also, the current elite controllers are poor quality according to those who own them.

My BDB was built in 2012 and has only had one “service”. Still going strong. I think the reason why there’s so many on marketplace is…

That would most likely be limescale. Some Barkeepers Friend scrubbed well into it sorted it for me.

Give this tutorial a shot: https://youtu.be/lcWhYbNrwV4?si=k0MYCWrAAiUVewU8 It was only uploaded a couple of weeks ago, but it’s…

Have you had a go at cracking it open? The steamer and leaking could be serviced with new O rings costing a few bucks Group head issue…

Yeah this is the piezo style. Electric is generally more reliable especially in wet weather apparently

Too bad the temp gauge and electric igniter models aren’t sold by Myer, otherwise it would be a good deal.

Problem I’ve had with my metro besides the poor coverage is the fact I’m having to be super mindful about leaving it anywhere due to…

I upgraded from a Breville Smart Grinder to this in chrome and black. 100% one of my best purchases to date. It’s better in every way and…

Price has gone back up

They just feel worlds apart. The Specialita just feels and performs like a premium grinder. I got mine last year on a Black Friday sale…

Coming from a Breville Smart Grinder pro - it’s amazing. Built like a tank, looks nice (chrome and black) and does a really good job…

I’ve got the regular Bambino and a Eureka Mignon Specialita. Couldn’t be happier with the minimal bench space used and super quick…

Hm tempting to buy a replacement for my intermittent controller. Just can’t bring myself to buy one when the new one is supposed to…

They make something like 180m per year. Wouldn’t imagine they’d be more than $20 each to manufacture
12/11/2023 - 11:57
That’s a very good price. I’ve been pretty happy with my DC one

I’m on my third. Original had loud coil whine when asleep, second had the left side backlight just die. All have been refurbished though.

This isn't a deal and is part of the standard service. It's like suggesting that the occasional $10 off with Everyday rewards is a bargain.…

Yeah they just look so plain which was I guess a good thing in the early 2010s when minimalist looks were big. Also with the fact now that…

Yeah I saw in another thread that once working features were disabled and put behind a subscription. Hard pass for me
13/08/2023 - 23:28
I dunno man - a lot of people would pay a difference for the user experience alone
25/07/2023 - 01:39
Why would buying one of these make someone lazy? A kmart grinder isn’t comparable with output quality.

That’s a really great price for a good grinder. Nice find OP
13/07/2023 - 23:35
Perfect. Thanks.
