I have a Rocket Appartamento machine which has been awesome. I love my morning espresso's.

So for the Sette the shims came with the grinder. I noticed pretty quickly that the grind was way too coarse even at the finest settings so I added two shims right away and that fixed it great. I didn't notice the grind adjustment slipping at all (but there is a fair amount of vibration ).
I purchased the Niche from indiegogo.com since that was the only place they sold it. They do sell through their website now although they apparently sell out within hours.

It is an awesome little grinder but for the price point and how difficult it is to actually purchase, I would actually recommend the Eureka Mignon Specialita
