While by no means the best grinder on the market, the Gaggia MDF has enough grind settings to accommodate everything from French Press to Drip to Espresso and everything in between. If coffee is a serious hobby for you, the lack of stepless adjustment will make dialing in some types of beans difficult, but for the price I would highly recommend it. from Target.com I've had this grinder for about two years, purchased about six months after a Gaggia Carezza. Together they create wonderful espresso, lattes, and mochas. from Amazon.com I bought this grinder as part of a total coffee upgrade for my kitchen. Unfortunately, not all the pieces were Gaggia, and the portafilter for my Saeco espresso maker would not fit the doser bracket. The grinder did a fine job with the coffee, but I returned it because I couldn't use it in my kitchen. from Amazon.com After constantly reading that a blade grinder shouldn't be used & waiting because I thought I was making as perfect a grind as any "MDF" grinder I finally received an "MDF" as a gift. Well, I immediately unwrapped it & ran a test grind through (set on number 7) & thought that was to fine so I threw it away. from Amazon.com I am very happy with it. It has several measures to grind coffee so there is a setting for all tastes and needs. It matches my coffee maker (Gaggia) perfectly and it is easy to clean. Any coffee lover will appreciate the nuances and capabilities of this grinder. from Amazon.com Which is worse spending $60 on a grinder that doesn't work or spending $400 dollars on one that does? I did the former and couldn't bring myself to do the latter so I did the duuh smart thing and got an MDF. After attempting to get by with blade style grinders followed by a Krups GVX1 that went Kaput almost right out of the box, I finally got off the couch and bought the MDF I should have all along. from Amazon.com The Gaggia MDF grinds your coffee perfectly, to just the right consistency with its very flexible grind adjustment. However, instead of grinding the coffee directly into an awaiting filter basket, Gaggia has prefered a complicated dosing mechanism that ends up making a mess on the countertop. from Amazon.com Works great...the doser is kind of a pain sometimes, but totally manageable. It does a great job on the grinding and that is why I bought it. Bought this with the Gaggia Carezza, and together they make great Espresso! from Amazon.com The Gaggia MDF is a modestly priced burr grinder for those looking to improve their espresso based drinks. Consistancy of grind is fair. from Amazon.com I recently reviewed the Gaggia espresso maker I bought when I got this grinder, and mentioned the grinder in that review. My views on this grinder are simple: buy it if you are the type that is hands-on, because this grinder requires it. from Amazon.com
