The Delonghi Ariete works quite well and performs at unprecedented levels as compared to what a person could ask and expect out of a coffee maker marked at $100. With some things here and there pulling it down, but overall a good and a decent enough buy if a coffee machine is your want but the budget is a constraint.
CONS:
• They say that the customer is God. But it seems Delonghi doesn't really understand the concept. With a lot of complaints from people about the rude and unprofessional customer services, it's time that Delonghi takes a reality check for the same.
• Even at the coarsest grinder setting (15), the final grind was still found to be too fine for what is needed to brew a good French Press styled coffee."

From Reddit:
"Baratza Encore or this Ariete Delonghi grinder?"
"Baratza times a million. Better grinder, better customer service, much easier to repair."
"Looks like a straight rip off of the OXO grinder without the scale feature. Had an OXO for a little bit and the scale was nice but I'd still stay with Baratza for grind consistency and longevity"

Just an FYI if you're spending money on a grinder for drip coffee, America's Test Kitchen pitted their "best" burr grinder against their "best" cheap blade grinder in a blind taste test. After the results showed none of the tasters could pick which was which, they did the test again, and again, and again. Then they added some coffee "experts" into the groups of tasters. Even they couldn't tell burr ground from blade ground for the drip coffee. The info is on their webpage and there's a couple videos on YouTube of the testing. In the end they recommend a burr grinder for drip coffee for convenience, not taste.
Because you can load up a countertop burr grinder once and just press a button to get however much you need for a few brews. With the blade grinder, you get it out, get out your coffee bag, scoop the coffee into the grinder, and then grind it. And then return coffee bag to wherever. I don't find that too inconvenient for the huge cost difference. Lol. I have a hand operated burr grinder. I thought I just didn't have a golden palette when I didn't taste a difference compared to the blade grinder I had been using before. Those tests confirmed I was normal. Lol. 😂😂😂

My $20 hario hand burr grinder can turn coffee beans to powder. Lol.
