A good electric grinder will easily cost several hundred dollars. Commercial grinders go neat $1k if not over.
I much prefer a manual as personally I would rather not use electricity if there is a feasible alternative. The problem with many of the less expensive manual grinders is they either cannot adjust or if they do it is more rube goldberg than what you get with a good electric. Adjusting the level of grind is important if you brew coffee in different ways as well as experiment with the type of beans and roast. The Lido in concept will have the same precise grind control one gets from the high end grinders without using electricity. I just wish the darn things would come in stock so I can try one out.
