Been buying Aussie gear for years and having this available in the States now is just a relief. No more waiting three weeks for international shipping. The Aroma-3 grinds incredibly smooth, the milled aluminum feels proper hefty in hand, and that skate bearing center is genuinely the best thing that has ever happened to a grinder. kief catch is legit too.

Mine arrived and the bearing was already stiff, like noticeably stiffer than any video ive seen of this thing, definitely not the buttery smooth spin everyone talks about. Contacted support and they were helpful but slow. Took three weeks to sort out. When it worked it was nice but for 185 dollars this should not be the experience out of the box. Two stars because the concept is good but my unit was a lemon.

Ordered one when it was still only available from Australia and paid like 40 bucks shipping and had to wait almost a month. Worth it then, even more worth it now that its finally stocked stateside. The Aroma-3 is a different class of grinder. That center skate bearing gives it this buttery spin that other grinders literally cannot do. Use it daily, no issues, still spins like day one.

Look the spin is cool, i showed it off, everyone was impressed. Grind quality is fine, maybe a little better than fine. But 185 dollars? I have a Brilliant Cut grinder that was 75 bucks and the actual grind output is basically the same. Youre paying a large premium for the bearing novelty and the aesthetic. If that matters to you great. If you just want good herb, buy something cheaper.
