Hi, I decided to go for smaller grinder as suggested in the last thread about the Mazzer Major being too big....but used Minis seems to be few and far between (maybe just wrong timing)....
so
Compak K3 is equalvalent to Mazzer Mini or 'worse'??
I may consider a Macap MC4 (i like idea of a dosser-less approach), but I aren't so sure if their chutes are direct/clean - from what i already understand Rocky is terrible there, so nah, not that one.
M7 better or still too big ? (like a Major/Super Jolly)
Mahlkorig Vario good enough or it is too tatty - are their replacement burrs heinously exorbitant? (iis it too tatty just because of its more plastic skin, same could be said for
im just trying to narrow it down, im staying away from lesser known brands or Spanish-made asacos or Anfims (they good but all seems to be coffee-shop big in sizes, too large)

I have formed this opinion after using, servicing and repairing many, many grinders over the past ten years. Selling grinders is one thing, working on them and using them is another. Oh and yes, as I said earlier is just my opinion and because there are now so many variants of these models it is hard to compare. I would say that my opinion is based mainly on comparing the doser models of the two brands. The electronic models really are very different in many ways and I tend to prefer much larger/faster grinders of the electronic type. Although to be honest I am not a fan of the larger Macap grinders.
