Norvin put together using parts from other machines in the range in an innovative compact design, competition beating performance from the off, no shortage of detractors most of which have never used one.
That’s about right…there did seem to be a group of people who really didn’t like the fact it existed…even the lever mag issue 4 made a revealing comment about that…if people spotted it.
Apart from a certain group, others seem pleased…The Niche Grinder, was also disliked by, a certain group don’t seem to like…if the Vesuvius Evo does anything, it will disrupt the market for the better. It’s indisputable how good Niche has been for the grinder market as competing grinders have come out. Finally, people don’t have to buy used commercial grinders any more….
I am sure the Evo will help in reviving the lever market and driving innovation, especially for those manufacturers who have been a little lazy about the design process for their levers…The competition is healthy and may even have kept prices down!
