I don't have one, but have been using a 3-roller Crank-and-Stein for about 6 years and would highly recommend one.

With some quick adjustments, eg adding washers and replcing cotter pin with bolt, I am getting 75-80% eff on every batch now.
I actually enjoy milling the grains by hand, maybe takes 20 minutes to grind 10lbs? Not very long.

Free 2 day shipping for prime members too.
Be prepared to make those modifications to it though, because when I first got it I thought it was a piece of **** because it was so inconsistent. Then I read up online about it, went to the hardware store and bought .50c worth of parts, and I love it now.
even if you're a novice with tools and such, it's just some wing nuts and washers, it's extremely simple.
once you get it dialed in, the eff you can get is around 80-85. usually i get around 70%, but i'm still dialing it in
Is there a parts list and/or instructions for the modifications to the corona mill?
