I wanted to love the Ode Gen 2 but, alas, it locked up the 4th time I used it. Medium roast beans for 2 cups/day. After following the instructions to fix, including major surgery of the burr grinder, it worked for a tenth of a second. Back in the box and to Fellow it shall go, though I really want to slam it into the trash can. Zero stars…love the Aiden though.
Couple things that bother me about this grinder: 1) Why not make the grinder in a matching blue to your other products (such as stone blue) 2) Bit concerned about build quality. The dial does not move sooth, and when adjusting the dial the numbered indicating ring warps up/down. I had hoped for a bit better build quality from Fellow. 3) I wish there was some consistency across grind fineness, had to search independent reviews to obtain micron size and optimal setting (which is far from what Fellow recommends) 4) Added in the Atmos coffee storage in the bundle to try to up my game, jokes on me as it only holds vacuum for a day or two (despite using the troubleshooting tips from Fellow). Should've stuck with a Mason jar. Slick idea, again quality/reliability for what I'd hope from Fellow products not there.
