Hawo mill vs Komo?
I am thinking of getting a mill, (I imagine like many others have recently) and not much is available. I did find a "Hawo’s Mill 1 Grain Mill" available, which is fairly expensive for me. But I can't find much info about them in terms of reviews. The warranty, on the surface, is pretty 'meh' at 3 years vs something like a Komo (which are not available here in the US currently, everyone is out of stock). Maybe I could get a 230v Komo and a transformer, lol. =p. Does anyone have any experience or thoughts? Thanks.
I have the Hawos Billy 100, an electric stone mill. Great performer for small family needs. I've had it for about 18 months without issue. They have quite a few model options.
Cheers,
Gavin.

This is the Hawo's mill https://www.plantbasedpros.com/product/hawos-mill-1-grain-mill/ but it is quite a bit more than the backordered Komo (ETA Aug sometime) so not sure what to do... so it goes I guess.
I have my Komo for about 2 years and I really like it. I don't have any problem with using it. It's easy in use and fast enough. Worth its money, I can fully recommend it.
hi all,
I have owned two hawos mills for over 10 years now, the mill 1 and an easy mill. both were ok, not overly excited. The mill 1 has constantly given us issues with the build up and the small brush that sweeps the flour into shoot wears out and trips the machine too often. The stones on hawks easy just started collapsing, thereby not grinding at all. We are an Indian family of four so no heavy usage, maybe a 2-4 kilos a week and maybe a pound of milling every time we use and occasional more milling.
on the other hand, a friend owns komo, grinds pretty fine flour compared to hawos and lasts longer despite their heavy use as they a family of 8.
hope this helps.... good luck
