  • Does Anyone Know Where I could Find an EM0480?

    Ive been looking everywhere:

    David Jones (chaddy)
    Myers (chaddy)
    The Good Guys (dandenong)
    24hr Kmart
    Target
    etc...



    None of the above seem to have any in stock.

    Looking for a new one.

    Sunbeam have had manufacturing issues ezralimm (long story).

    Back orders should be arriving in retail stores soon.

      Yep...none around for now. When I ordered mine 3 weeks ago from GG they said the Sunbeam rep had told them there were none in Oz.

      Good to see from Dennis they should be arriving soon.

          I spoke to Sunbeam last week and they said that there wouldnt be any until early June ... I couldnt wait that long so settled on the em0450 which has the same internals, just looks a bit different (it isnt metal) and doesnt have the on/off switch.

            I reckon 0450 should be the way to go.

            Its no use spending the extra 50 dollars.

            Resale value of the two grinders are almost the same i think.

            saves you 50 bucks for your next upgrade!!!

              Just got one from David Jones at the Glen.

              It didnt sell out as it was priced at AUD220.

              However, there is a "sale" on now and there was a reasonable discount. bringing the price down to AUD186.

              Very good customer service.

              Gotta admit i was quite put off by The Good Guys even though they did promise me a price of AUD180.... but i would have to wait a couple of weeks and make another trip to dandenong for that.


              So far, im happy with the machine. I find that Grind 16 is ideal for my pressurized basket.

                    There is 15% sale at DJ atm. I bought one last Friday and paid only $186. Slightly more than GG or Retravision but none of these places have stock until June.

                            Hi
                            I am going to buy an EM 0480 tomorrow from Big W in Woden in the ACT. Saw them today at $188 each - they had plenty.
                            What sort of espresso machine do you have. I have heard mixed reports that the Sunbeam can be hard to use effectively and learn on.
                            I have a Gaggio Classic. Any suggections for the grind using the Gaggio?
                            regards

                              I find that 6-7 works best on the Gaggia, have managed to choke it using a grind of 5 and heavy tamping. I have done the OPV mod though, before I got the EM0480. Varies a bit by bean types.
