I spent a few months doing research & ultimately decided on a Mockmill 200 Pro a few years ago. Pricey, but it has a 12-year warranty for private use, it can pump out 200 grams of flour per minute (7 ounces a minute at the finest setting), and you can run it for hours & hours if necessary (better motor & cooling system). This website has a good comparison between the Komo & Mockmill: https://sourdoughhome.com/grain-mill-test-results Summary: A follow up on 2/8/2010. In the end, the differences between the Komo and MockMill weren't that significant. Both made excellent bread. The MockMill ground the flour slightly more quickly and slightly finer. But, the difference wasn't obvious in the finished loaf. I opted to save up for awhile to get the Mockmill & ended up saving up for the Pro for the extra warranty because I know that I'm covered for the next decade, as I wanted to use it weekly, if not daily! The non-Pro is great too: Every standard Mockmill comes with a factory 6-year warranty on material and manufacturing defects for private use. Professional models carry a 12-year warranty for private use and 2-year warranty for commercial use. We will repair or replace a defective Mockmill within the warranty period. I try to bake every day. I typically do an overnight no-knead project, most of the time with homemade sourdough starter. For home-milled flour, it's typically recommended not to exceed 25% of it in any particular bread recipe. So I can easily mill some flour at night before bed when I make my dough because it's literally just dumping in some wheat berries & catching it in a bowl underneath. The accessibility totally won me over! Answer from kaidomac on reddit.com

r/HomeMilledFlour on Reddit: Fine flour - any diff between KoMo and Mockmill?
November 18, 2023 -
I've seen good reviews on both these manufacturers, and both seem to do a good job with bread flour. I did see on one website (selling Mockmill) that the MM can grind finer flour than the KoMo Classic. So - does anyone have any experience comparing those two (or similar) for fine flour?
Decision paralysis has set in :)

The two mills are essentially identical except for the outer coverings. Wolfgang Mock developed the KoMo with another individual. That is the Mo part of the name. He felt they became to pricey and niche, so he split off and built the Mockmilll which was initially about 50% of the cost of the KoMo. The milling stones are identical and while they have different coarseness adjustment methods, the results are the same. I have a 6 year old Mockmill 200 that I love. At some point I’ll get the 200 Pro, because I like the looks of it, but the overall milling experience will be the same. tl;dr - buy the one that has the looks/price you want, the flour they produce will be identical.

If you grind cracked wheat or other coarsely ground grains the Komo is easier to adjust. The difference is minor, but if you need coarse grains often, you may wind up cursing the MockMill. All this leaves me still debating which mill to return and which to keep.
Deciding between Mockmill and Komo - beginner question - Baking Tools - Breadtopia Forum
Hello, I am trying to decide between the Mockmill 200 and the Komo Fidibus Classic. I am leaning toward the Mockmill. I want to mill medium-high extraction flour. My question is, I have read that the Mockmill grinds finer flour with more uniform particle size than the Komo. More on forum.breadtopia.com

Nutrimill vs Mockmill vs. Komo
I purchased KoMo a few months ago. The two main deciding factor were: Allegedly, KoMo produces finer flour than Mockmill. KoMo milled flour has lower temperature. Temperature consideration is important for two reasons: a. Less nutrients are lost. b. It allows for better dough temperature management. More on reddit.com
I would like to purchase my first mill, but I am so frustrated that Komo and Mockmill are out of stock everywhere with long wait times.
I waited for my Komo because I wanted the walnut color. It took about 6 weeks. So glad I did. It is so much easier than my old Nutrimill Classic. I mill a lot and it never fails me. It is beautiful and sits out on my counter. I had to take the Nutrimill apart to store it. It took up an entire cabinet shelf. It was messy to clean but worked great. When I got my Komo, I was going to keep the Nutrimill for large batches since it mills faster, but after a week with my Komo, I knew I would never use it again. I gave the Nutrimill to my son-in-law last year and now he is hooked on milling too and wants a Komo like mine. My daughter wants to get into milling now so it will probably go to her next. It was a great starter mill, but if you’re milling often, definitely get a stone mill. Mockmill was very similar to the Komo in style and quality but did not come in walnut. I have walnut accents and a walnut island so the Pecan wood was a no for me. The wait is only going to get longer so I would order soon. So many people are justing getting into FMF. So I suggest, pick the one you really want and wait for it. More on reddit.com
