What’s your budget and what coffee do you want to grind for? Espresso or brewed?

Repair if it was working fine before?
Mine is a rancilio Silvia that's nearly 20y old. Working fine though I'm sure there are lots of much newer kids on the block
Budget and purpose (press, filter, espresso)? The rancilio as mentioned is great. Not sure about the size if space is an issue. james Hoffman on YouTube has some good vlogs on grinders. My Kitchen Aid needs new burrs but its an old model so I am in the market myself. Not paying some crazy amount tho.
Thanks all, it's for a filter coffee machine, I use a Sage precision brewer recommended by James Hoffman.
My grinder was a Wilfa Svart, 10 years old. Not sure if it can be repaired?
Just read that it's an Indy Reviews best buy so I may just buy another one:

We have this one from Barista & co, really good bit of kit. Burrs are replaceable, and the whole thing breaks down for cleaning.
Grinds from espresso and up.
Does one-shot and continuous.
It was a recommended buy when we were looking, but I can't remember where!
Makes a great espresso, with a fantastic crema!

I bought a Eureka Mignon Specialita last week on the recommendation of my son and a good friend.
It's fabulous and I'm delighted with it. Looks neat on the kitchen work surface too, so I haven't lost too many domestic brownie points :)
I think if you were into single dosing the manual version (much cheaper) would do the same thing.
Best wishes,
Martyn.
I have that very same manual dose version, and can confirm it's a very good bit of kit. The Eureka is a more commercial oriented grinder, the sort of thing you would find in a cafe/sports club doing low volume or decaf. I've had mine for around 3 years now, and it's been flawless .
Thanks everyone for your responses.
I've ordered this one, party because key parts like the burrs can be replaced easily.

Replacing burrs can do a lot as well, it’s a rabbit hole on its own. These Korean ssp burrs make a huge difference

Have a look at James Hoffman here....

Might have sold it to me. Looks v.good.
Another vote for Niche. This side of a Mahlkonig they're excellent.

I've had it for near 4 years now and it's been bombproof, so much so I even treated my two kids to one each a couple of Xmas's ago, all 3 have been used day in and day out without a hitch.
