I’m interesting it purchasing the newer Breville Model #BCG820 that Williams-Sonoma currently sells. Therefore, I’ve been researching the historical design issues before I decide. You indicated that this model has a metal impeller which presumably has eliminated the premature wear issues of earlier models. Are there any other design issues that have surfaced with this current model?
Currently, I’m using a Nuova Simonelli Model MCF small espresso grinder which is built like a tank and has performed flawlessly for the last 12 years. Now, I want to buy another grinder for drip coffee, but don’t want to buy one that is going to fail in 2-3 years.
