My use case is mostly espresso with an occasional crank out to coldbrew, which is a bit different than "filter," but I'll say I'm very pleased with the Turin SK40 I picked up a few weeks ago so far. I was also eyeballing the Baratza Encore ESP and Fellow Opus in the same general price/performance class, and decided to take a gamble on a fancy option from a smaller "manufacturer".
I quote because, as far as I can tell, it's an ODM customized Guangzhou Itop IT-CG100B variant, but none of the other dealers seem to have a version with the step-less adjust worm, side switch, apparently the burrs vary, etc.
The workflow is lovely, retention is nearly nonexistent, noise is not obnoxious, adjustment is easy and precise, etc. Longevity, obviously, remains to be seen.
That is interesting, I will for sure give a look at other options. Unfortunately, Turin does not seem to be available in europe. But I will search thoroughly later
