The grinder is kind of annoying though. It tends to grind to one side so I have to take out the portafilter and tap it a bit for the grinds to distribute evenly. Not horrible, but it's something I noticed. The grinds are fairly consistently sized, though, so that's a good thing.
I'm more of a latte in the morning kind of guy so I like the steam wand being both quieter (than the BBE) and better at producing micro-foam.
Also, this Calphalon has tended to produce better shots so far, but I've only had it for a couple days now.
Still beats my old DeLonghi EC155, which was a reliable, but super budget espresso machine.

I already have a good grinder. Can someone comment whether I should buy the cheaper one without a grinder, or are there more differences between the machines?

1)Comes with both pressurized & non pressurized baskets
2)Adjustable brew temperature
3)Adjustable Pre Infusion with 3 settings
4)Larger Milk Jug (16 oz vs 12oz)
5)Cleaning Brush (Grinder & Group Head Shower Screen)
6)Blank Cleaning Disc (For Back Flushing) because this model has a 3 way solenoid valve while non grinder model does not !

Do no confuse Breville (UK ) which is Newell with Breville (AU/USA) which is marketed in UK as Sage ! Its all very confusing but has to do with country specific brand licensing .
Sunbeam AU is a well respected brand in AU & has been making espresso machines for years at various price points some are pro summer level (Cafe Series) while others are budget models which are virtual clones of Mr Coffee sold here in the USA.
Its a shame that Newell is not supported the Calphalon Temp IQ here in USA as to the level they do with Sunbeam.AU. Over there you can actually purchase spare parts as well as accessories for the machines !
