    Hi Sue,

    Interesting.... the 480 I currently use Ive had about 2 months now.... has a stainless steel lid, so Im guessing I got lucky and the stock they were pumping must have been the newest batch.

    Picked it up for $99.95 from one of these online 24 hour one-chance-only shopping websites so I must have been double lucky on that day getting the price and latest stock..... thinking back, why didnt I also buy a lottery ticket at the same time!!!

    Cheers,
    Scotty....

    NE14coffee  my second one arrived today, well the the Post Office, so will get it tomorrow.  Will be interested to see what it is like will let you know!

    How is your machine going any word yet?
    Mmmm ill be interested to know if you have better luck with the second one too  :-/

    Picked up the machine yesterday (a week after paying in full). I had to call them and sure enough it had arrived and was on hold for me. Apparently they havent got a system worked out on calling the customer when items arrive... the shop has only been open a short time. Still i wasnt impressed  >  Packed up my old baby this morning after giving her a good clean last night and fired up the new girl   Have named her "Emalia" its latin for flirt hehehe I thought it suited her EM69  ;D

    Only made two coffees they looked very pretty and tasted average so im very keen to try again tomorrow! Maybe its time for a grinder upgrade lol

    Hows yours going Sue (everyone else feel free to respond about yours too)???

    Sent the grinder redemption off on August 29th so well see how long that takes... Most ppl in Syd seem to be getting it within 2-3 wks.

    Hmmm... flatwhite, perhaps you should pull your new grinder apart for a sticky beek before use. As Sueb mentioned earlier "you never know what you will find"!!!

    Good luck and happy grinding.

    Re: Sunbeam Promo Free EM0480

    First post here - long time lurker!!!

    Was wondering.... What colour is the plastic of the bean hopper and grind catcher thingy on promotion model EM0480s ???

    Daft question I know but I bought the grinder a few months ago for use with a stove top and the hopper is a nice browny colour.... checking the sunbeam site the grinder images are all showing a glassy like clear plastic so its got me a thinking since I took advantage of the fathers day deal just before it expired on the 2nd....

    Doesnt look so nice with the clear plastic I think but... will wait until it arrives before passing final jusgement!

    Cheers,
    Scotty....

    2mcm I dont think it is from testing I could clean my grinder a lot better than this. Its more like an old rust like mark you cant scrape it off.

    Flatwhite I sent my voucher back on 6th August! I am wondering that it took so long because we bought 2 and one was on back order a week after I got the one on back order I received 1 grinder still waiting for the other I will call on Monday!

    NE14coffee when I bought my first one the first thing I did was take it apart to see if it was a returned one just in case, you never know what you will find

    Wow sue, thats not good. I doubt Sunbeam have that good a quality check that they test grinders before distribution. I have an old (6 months) em0480 without the s/s lid and i never thought to pull it appart before use... I will do when the new one comes though.

    Not that it matters since your selling it!

    Got my grinder today!  It was suspiciously dirty!  Didnt have a coffee smell but the top burr I would say has definitely had coffee through it!  I am selling it anyway so it doesnt worry me but just wondering if anyone else has found this!

    Sue
    When did you send in your voucher?

    Hi Sue- Rancilio test all of their grinders to ensure that all is well.

    I guess its quite possible that this may occur with Sunbeam as well.... :-?

    Perhaps if this trend continues, it may get to a point where Sunbeam are paying people to take the machines!!
    Okay, out of respect to those suckers among us who paid retail price for this, please stop rubbing it in!!!

    Hi Flatwhite I sent my redemption form away on 6th and still havent received anything. I know a friend here in Brissy sent theirs away about th 17th and got it within a week!

    Ive rung Sunbeam and they say it will take up to 4-6 weeks and when said that others have received it soon just want to make sure you got my form at least, Ive been told that a mail house is doing it all and they dont have any records Mmmmm!

    How did you go paulstar? Beat the $560 mark...

    I bought mine today for $540! Great deal.
    I didnt need much convincing either.
    $540... very impressive!  I got mine for $550, so I got under the $560 mark atleast!  I posted the grinder redemtion on Monday, so well see how that one goes now. So far... so good, and I havent even used it yet!!

    Perhaps if this trend continues, it may get to a point where Sunbeam are paying people to take the machines!!
