After buying three "cheap" grinders in the last two years I'm embarrassed to have waited this long to pull the trigger on a Fellow grinder. The Opus is everything I need and more, I couldn't be more pleased with its performance. Not only does it a do a fantastic job, it's so quiet!My only gripes are the fit and finish. After two months of use, the bottom of the tray is thoroughly scratched by grinds getting stuck under the catch up. I've brushed/cleaned the area but errants grinds still make their way under the catch cup and end up gouging the top of the tray. Oh well. I also love that the catch cup is magnetic, but I wish grooved channel on this inside was a little more tapered so that it could actually be used to pour the grinds without making a mess.

This machine does everything I need with little to ask better about.I'm going to be brief on the aesthetic since it's Fellow, and they're known to make good looking products. I will say the case is prone to scratching as the machine is plastic, but it's not been something I'm upset about at all, especially given the price.The burrs are readily accessible for cleaning which is a great point. This does also show you just how much retention there is (some have measured up to half a gram, but I've really only had anywhere from 0.1-0.3 without mechanically removing it), and while some reviews I've seen complained a lot about it - just a couple quick and firm taps cleared out enough from the burr for me to continue making my coffee.

It's just a habit now, but if this were more expensive that would just be unacceptable.I have been able to get great immersion brews, filter coffees, and espresso out of this grinder. The grind is pretty consistent and has a wide range from course to extremely fine. I've pulled my shots with lighter roasts, and still had good results, so extraction hasn't been an issue in my experience. You may need to tinker a while to get exactly the shots you want with it given the steps may be bigger than you'd like if you're that kind of espresso fanatic, but that's not really unusual in my opinion especially considering the price.Some reviews I've seen mentioned that the fine tuning for espresso can be finicky or confusing, but I've not experienced any real issue with it. I've been able to dial in within 2 or 3 shots fairly consistently, if not on the first try. I will say that if you're not intimately aware of your settings though, trying to get this to do exactly what you want in the morning before you've had your coffee could absolutely be a point against it for some people.Overall I'm very pleased with my purchase. I feel like I got it at an unbelievably cheap price, and I have no qualms recommending this to people who need a "cheaper" but versatile electric burr grinder. If you're an enthusiast, you probably have grinders that will do exactly what you want already - if you're a beginner, this can get you anywhere you need to go with reasonable ease and precision for an entry level price.

They must be really being rough with it because it literally just slides into place thanks to the magnets.

This is my first burr grinder. I have ground beans once in the past when I mistakenly ordered the whole bean and had to use my ancient blade grinder that I use for spices. Since I could not overcome my coffee addiction by trying to go cold turkey for 2 mos., I landed on half caff, which led to researching grinders that would accommodate the single cup (I bought a Technovorm CupOne). The only answer for me came down to the Opus. There was just as much negative responses as positive responses, but I had a good feeling about Fellow and their products, so I ordered the Opus. It took me about 3 wks to dial my coffee making in to the perfect cup (keep in mind that I am complete newbie to grinding, and single cup) I LOVE IT. I don't understand the complaining.

Also, if I wanted an espresso, I just don't think it would be that complicated. There is so much info available out there that greenhorns like me can look at, and I've read that their customer service is really good, too. They worked for the five stars, and I'm happy to give it to them Hope this helps!
Works well for filter grinding which is what I purchased it for. I do not have any use for the espresso grinding functions so cannot comment in that respect. I've also never owned another electric grinder so cannot provide any comparison to other products. In my experience the products works well on the coarser grinds for aeropress and pourovers and is certainly an upgrade from my old hand grinder. Consistency is very good. The machine is relatively quiet. Retention is a bit higher than I expected but not a big issue as it gets used daily. I had one issue where I almost filled the hopper and set to grind for 2 mins which filled the collection bin and backed up into the grinder. Not good at all and was difficult to fully clean out all the ground coffee stuck in the ... MoreWorks well for filter grinding which is what I purchased it for.

Not good at all and was difficult to fully clean out all the ground coffee stuck in the machine. Largely my fault however I expected that with the hopper less than full and the pre-set 2 min grind time it would be OK to walk away from. Lesson learnt. I've only had it for a couple of months but very happy so far with daily use. Really good value for money. There may be better grinders on the marker such as the Ode but I couldn't justify the additional cost / couldn't see the benefit. Some people say the Opus looks a bit cheap (well it is cheap) but I don't agree with that. As long as you take care of it and don't let it get scratched up (it's all plastic) I think it looks quite nice in it's permanent home on the kitchen bench. Here's hoping it lasts the test of time.
It has a lot of nice features, I was initially very impressed but after some use I find the grind range on the upper end where you would use it for pour over, French press, etc. really doesn't grind course enough especially with beans like light roast Ethiopia and there isn't a lot of difference in the range settings. I can hardly tell a difference between 9 & 11. I talked to customer support about this issue and they ultimately sent a new grinder. The replacement started out better but quickly tightened up with use (I assume the burrs wore in) and is now just like the first one. Since they were both the same it must be inherent in the design. It's baffling that Fellow didn't observe that in the pre-production stage as there are advertising that it works with the ... MoreIt has a lot of nice features, I was initially very impressed but after some use I find the grind range on the upper end where you would use it for pour over, French press, etc. really doesn't grind course enough especially with beans like light roast Ethiopia and there isn't a lot of difference in the range settings.

I'll keep using it for now but will probably have to replace it with something else. I can't recommend it to anyone that plans to use it for pour over especially if they like light roast. By the way, I've used various beans by different roasters with similar results.
Clean aesthetics, quiet, simple to operate. Retention is a bit high if you don’t use the top as a bellow or tap it. Especially obvious when grinding dark roast for drip coffee. Retention not as much in medium dark roast for espresso grind setting. Either way, I do wish it was less, but it is not a complaint. The gap between the chute and the collection cup does seem noticeably tighter with the larger dose cap — maybe from all the tapping and bellowing (?).I have the Barratza Encore (not ESP) and the Opus is super quiet compared to that. Definitely a step up on countertop aesthetics if the Opus. Overall, very good value. Quality is there, I don’t have an Ode to compare it to the metal body. Just a newbie to espresso world, not yet acclimated to the refine tasting. ... MoreClean aesthetics, quiet, simple to operate. Retention is a bit high if you don’t use the top as a bellow or tap it.

Would recommend as entry-level grinder for sure.
It feels odd to write a bad review for fellow. I've loved so many of their products and have been a fan for a long time, however this has been my first grinder I've tried. While the grind has been very consistent and the settings have been numerous to allow a wide range to dial in a coffee, the retention has really been ruining the experience for me.Even though this was advertised as having low grind retention, I'm actually finding this is the most grind retention I've ever had out of three grinders I've owned other than the Opus. It's actually to the degree that it's throwing off my brew which has been very frustrating.

It's actually to the degree that it's throwing off my brew which has been very frustrating. I don't know if there's something broken that is keeping the grinds, but after a full grind there is still enough grounds around the burrs that make up about five grams worth of coffee or more at times. To get it all out I have to turn it on and off again and again which spew out about 1g to 2 g of coffee. In the big one is when I put the lid on, the air pressure can spew out as much as three or four grams at a time.Sure, I can do this all manually and then measure the output of the ground coffee, but the idea behind the low retention was that i wouldn't have to do that and that was a main reason I was going for this grinder. In particular. I feel very disappointed and I'm even considering returning it as my experience has been really rough.Otherwise aesthetically, it's gorgeous, and quiet which is nice for others in the area. But it can't seem to handle grinding well, which is the main thing it has to do.
The Opus is my first quality grinder. Overall, I like it. It is plastic but it feels substantial and it looks great. It isn’t super fast, 35-40 seconds for 55 grams, but it seems reasonable. The noise level is tolerable. I wouldn’t say it is quiet, but it isn’t nearly as loud as my Ninja blender. I have only used it for medium and course grinds with light and dark roasted beans, and those seem pretty consistent. There are some fines but I don’t have a way to measure them. There is some retention and it seems like no matter how many times I tap the top I can get more out. Weight-wise, the retention is small and is less than a gram, but to say there is no retention is a stretch. Static does not seem to be an issue. The light roast had a minuscule amount of static but ... MoreThe Opus is my first quality grinder. Overall, I like it. It is plastic but it feels substantial and it looks great.

The light roast had a minuscule amount of static but it is almost not worth mentioning. The magnetic centering of the grounds container is nice and works well. I did have one instance where the cup didn’t center and it made a mess but that was my fault for not paying attention. I was surprised how well contained the mess was and I think that is a testament to the anti-static properties. With less than a month of use, I really do like the grinder but it is too early to make more than initial impressions.
Last summer, I housesat for a friend who had the Fellow Ode and their primary method was pour over. I loved how quiet and sleek it was. I have had my eye on these machines ever since.My coffee methods vary widely! I like cold brew, french press, moka pot, and pour over. On a really busy morning, I might use our tiny Mr. Coffee.I LOVE the grind range on this. Grind size is consistent and predictable. Machine is quiet, takes up very little counter space, and looks great.I am not the coffee drinker who weighs their beans and water. I really like that the lid of the grinder has two sections that help you measure your beans. I think it’s supposed to be like 20g/40g. It’s a nice approximation and I do find it helpful. Also really like the printed grind size chart ... MoreLast summer, I housesat for a friend who had the Fellow Ode and their primary method was pour over. I loved how quiet and sleek it was.

Also really like the printed grind size chart inside the lid.No matter what my morning is like, I can easily adjust my grind setting, pour some beans in, press a button, and have a perfect cup. Unquestionably superior to your everyday blade grinder and much simpler than a manual burr grinder. It’s pricy but worth it if you are a regular drinker and enjoy the coffee making process.Two features I wish the Opus had:I wish there was the thing to flick the rest of the grinds at the end like there is on the Ode. I give it a few light taps when the grinding stops and that helps a bit but there are still always grounds to be brushed away. I purchased the black machine for this reason after reading reviews about the same thing,so it doesn’t bother me as much. Definitely something to keep in mind for those of you wanting white machines!I also would’ve appreciated an auto stop feature on the grinder when there aren’t more beans. You can press the button when it’s done to get it to stop earlier than the 30, 60 second timers.
