I'm in the market for an entry level grinder for espresso, I came across the Lelit PL43 but right after I ordered the Bambino the grinder price went up from 150 EUR to 200+ where I'm not sure it's worth it anymore as there are Mignons close there, but wife does not like the look of the mignon she does like the Lelit.
Yesterday night I came across the Acopino Arona, what is looking like a re labeled Lelit, but I cannot find any information about that or is it a copy but it's at the original 150 EUR mark.

Does anyone know if they are the same or should I just wait for the Lelit to come down in price? Or is there anything worth better for espresso at this point what is small and looks similar.

I think that Acopina Arona is made by Lelit.
Similar case is La Pavoni Domus Bar. La Pavoni Domus Bar looks like Lelit Anita and is made by Lelit.
