Service from James at Niche Zero
I have been using a Niche Zero grinder since 2018. I am completely satisfied with its performance. I needed to obtain a replacement part from Niche. The service I received from James at Niche was rapid, effective and friendly. I was assisted to troubleshoot the problem I was having and to identify the part I needed.
A great experience. Thank you.
Elegant Grinder with an Amazing User Experience
I've used the Niche Zero for over 3 years now and the user experience on this grinder is simply amazing. This grinder is an excellent grinder fit for grinding any coffee bean needed for any coffee beverage. There is little to no retention per grind, and the experience is consistent from shot to shot for espresso, leading to repeatable, consistent and tasty shots. It is easy to dial in the grinder, and combined with the zero retention, switching between beans and beverages still leads to a consistent experience per shot as I can easily change to a different dial setting and still have a consistent experience.
In addition to this, the grinder is easy to maintain. All the tools necessary to perform basic maintenance are provided, and the grinder is easy to dissemble and clean. The availability of spare parts is also a huge boon. For example, replacing the gearbox and motor within the Niche Zero is an easy experience in case of issues, so reducing the cost of maintenance is a huge gain for the Niche Zero without needing servicing from third party providers. The Niche Coffee team is also happy to provide after warranty support for this grinder, so the longevity of the product is enhanced, which in my opinion is one of the strongest selling points for me.
Overall, I am a happy customer of the Niche Zero and for me, it is an easy recommendation for others new to their coffee journey or for someone looking to resolve grind issues with other grinders in the market. Shoutout to Martin and James, and the rest of the Niche Coffee team for designing such an amazing grinder, and for the after-warranty support provided!
Beautiful and quiet machine with consistent grinds
My coffee connoisseur friends finally convinced me to upgrade from my cheap coffee grinder that sounded like a 747 taking off.
Firstly, the machine is beautiful and looks fabulous in the kitchen. No cheap plastic like my cheap grinder and a toggle switch for operation which is just so satisfyingly tactile to use.
Secondly, the machine is so quiet when operated. This is a standout feature among all the models I looked out. My previous grinder was over 90db, this one is more than 20db quieter. When I operated my my previous grinder, conversations stopped. But with the Niche, you don't even need to raise your voice to continue your conversation.
Finally, it does what you'd want a good coffee grinder to do... it grinds coffee really well! I can't say I notice the difference to my previous model that much, but it's much more precise controlling the grind so I can get the perfect puck for an optimal draw.
On an aside, I dropped Niche a line with a query and I got a quick and helpful response.
It's an expensive machine, but you get quality that looks like it will last. Highly recommended!

Niche Zero coffee grinder - beautiful and perfectly ground beans
This grinder does not come cheap, but the ease of use and quality of grinds more than make up for it.
At this price, you are buying a beautiful equipment that you are proud to have on your countertop. This grinder is simple, elegant and allows fine adjustments of various grind sizes to be used for brewing coffee in all the different ways possible.
Love the evenly ground coffee and the flavor profile from all my brews!

Niche Zero - A Reliable Workhorse After 4 Years
I've been using the Niche Zero for nearly four years now, and it’s easily one of the best coffee-related investments I’ve made.
First and foremost, it’s incredibly easy to use, clean, and calibrate. Whether you’re a seasoned coffee enthusiast or just starting to experiment with different grind sizes, the workflow is effortless. The design makes it simple to dial in the right settings without unnecessary complexity.
One of the standout features is its seamless grind adjustment. I can go from a fine espresso grind to a coarse French press (cafetiere) grind with zero hassle. Unlike some grinders that struggle with consistency at different levels, the Niche Zero delivers uniform results across the board.
After nearly four years of daily use, it’s still running strong with no drop in performance. If you're looking for a high-quality single-dose grinder that’s user-friendly and versatile, the Niche Zero is hard to beat.

Great machine, poor customer service
Love the Niche Zero grinder but it took a few weeks before I could start using it properly as the burr screw was loose when it arrived. I had no idea this wasn't supposed to happen so I made tens of espressos that were pretty awful. Customer service offered some suggestions and told me to post on the facebook group asking for help. Not giving me a lot of confidence but fortunately I was able to identify the issue and now it's all working nicely.

Firm but fair assessment.
Shipped much faster than original estimate. Well packed and in immaculate condition. Grinder is fantastic, the hype is real. Some criticism about grinding for filter coffee was justified initially in my experience, but after having the grinder for 9 months, the burrs have seasoned very nicely and the quality of filter coffee it produces has improved a lot. Lost one star because the unit they shipped me did not have the retention bolt on the burr assembly torqued down properly and came loose after the second or third use. But I tightened it down and it has been fine ever since.
