Disagree. This is a solid grinder. Grinders are expensive to make. They require precision and accuracy when making the burrs and aligning the drive system to get a consistent grind without a ton of fines. The burr design takes numerous iterations to get the flavor profile you want (Lance Hendrick talks about this in his video on the Ode 2)The motor requires enough power for the job. The Ode also has antistatic tech which makes a huge difference in retention and reduces messiness.
I dare you to make a grinder like this for less. You can't.
If you think this is overpriced, chances are this grinder isn't marketed toward you. Stick with your cheap burr grinder or whirlybird, if you're happy with it.
The encore produces more fines which leads to over extraction - however the encore is a damn good grinder - more so with the upgraded burrs. The advantage of this grinder is the flat burrs designed for filter coffee, the ability to upgrade to ssp burrs (though the gen 2 burrs are good enough for me), the anti static tech - and the ability to single dose with very little retention.
As with all grinders as taste is very subjective all that matters is how it tastes for you.

I got that Gen2 Ode grinder a few months ago (for $300) after persistent recommendations from that coffee snob friend. It has been quite a game changer for every day coffee grinding. I came from a plastic Bodum grinder.
