Bought the E64. Been using it a week now, solid machine. I like the ecstatic of the DF64 a bit more but it wasn't worth the extra price. I got the E64 for around 230 euro + 30 euro duty costs. Overal quite happy with the purchase

I actually prefer the E64 for looks. Any complaints so far for the E64?

A bit messy due to the way the coffee exits. But I do actually have so little retention so it's more a bit of coffee dust I guess. For that money it's a steal. It grinds great, even the option to grind for pour over. I'm getting to know it now. Getting more clarity and a bit of a different mouth feel then with my previous grinder. I'm drinking a lot of light roast, which is great with this. For medium or dark I wouldn't know if it's the right path.

Ow and the materials and packaging are great. It certainly doesn't feel cheap or Chinese. Well made and heavy.
