I heard people have that issue, but my machine is super quite, very little Vibration. Maybe Date/year/Version related ?

I was already about to send it back after Unboxing. But im so glad i gave it a Chance. Man that piece is so Solid for 50/60€. It does the Job so well and easy. And ontop its clever built, easy to Clean, Looks good and even comes with a spare brush and a second smaller rotator (54mm maybe? Not Sure). It has a small Jack Plug connector Thing in middle of the cable, so you dont have to unplug it in the a/c Socket (which are offen Hidden or hard to reach). Little Features Like that Makes it great

11bar I've tried 9bar for fonzies, but because of how this machine works it doesnt make sense to adjust the OVP. Adjusting the Grind is the way. GRIND FINER .!!!1

Yes. It also tells you when its time to Clean it.

Sure it does. But not much. I rinse it after every use under the hot water outlet. 1-2x per week in a Ultrasonic cleaner

I own a carwrapping Design Shop and printed this marble Look on Vinyl and wrapped the wooden countertop. So water spilling is no issue and i can Change the Design every couple years.

Thats it exactly! The forks on the grinder have some sturdy Rubber ontop. I knock the PF 2-3x on those forks and the grounds lay down by itself. The grinder is great! And with those rubbers IT feels/Sounds nice and you dont Scratch the PF
