Does anyone have experience with these two grinders? I’ve narrowed my search down to these two but I’m very undecided. I know the 64 is the better grinder but I don’t know if it’s worth the extra $200 CAD.

We have the DF64 gen 2 and use it everyday. I absolutely adore it. That being said, we never had the 54, so I'm not sure if the 64 is worth the extra cash. But I've only had good experiences with DF Grinders and will always recommend them.

    How long have you had it for? How has the motor held up so far?

    Mine is about 5 years old. Still works perfectly. I mostly grind light roasts for espresso, which are much harder on the grinder. The burrs gave up and I upgraded to SSP burrs, but the motor still runs strong.
