durability issues2easy to use1

Their Mignon Libra is OK but its FH error is annoying with no override.

“The Libra is ok and FH error is annoying, especially when there’s no override..”
mixed

Their Libra always comes out about 1g short of the target dose, which they blame on the Breville portafilter not sitting fully in the fork.

“I seem to always have 1g of retention compared to spec on their website saying .2g.”
negative

Three years of daily use from their Mignon Libra's grind-by-weight.

“Eureka Libra, it’s grind by weight, NOT by volume or time. Had mine 3 years”
positive

After five years their Mignon Libra's motor starter capacitor is weakening.

“I also found that the starter capacitor for the motor gets worse over time. Mine is already 5 years old”
mixeddurability issues

Got rid of their Mignon Libra over constant failures to grind at espresso settings.

“Constant issues with espresso grind not working and having to twist the dial backwards and forwards until it started.”
negativedurability issues

Their Mignon Libra's grind-by-weight gives a great workflow.

“Eureka Libra is grind by weight. That’s why I got my setup. The workflow is great.”

Very happy with their grind-by-weight Eureka Libra.

“I already have the eureka Libra that does GBW that I'm very happy with so I don't want a built in grinder”
positive

Swapped from a Graef grinder to a Eureka Mignon Libra and never looked back.

“Nonetheless, I still swapped to Eureka Migninon Libra and don't look back ever.”
