Krups coffee grinder grinder GVX242 (household goods)

Customer Review

I bought the unit on the Internet, but at the dealer around the corner. I can associate myself with the negative judgments almost always when I have the device so far, probably also not been used long enough to uncover the described wear (= Defective!).

From an adjusted by itself freeness I missed anything, the lever on the side is provided with a light "detent" which apparently but usually sufficient resistance to pitching has - perhaps with the previous speakers even the curious children were at work ... ;-)

However, I have noticed in the first few days that the metal area of ​​the device is in the inserted state with time noticeably warm - since put a switchable adapter plug before it, and the device remains cold. Strangely only that an ambitious instrument indicates a consumption between 0.00 watts when the unit is not running. And yet it is warm (as I recently again could tell when I had forgotten to turn off the adapter plug after use).

Too often fall during the grinding process according to any more beans. At this price I expect that might happen in 1-2% of milling operations, not everybody 10th! Sometimes it happens even in a grinding 2-3 times - and certainly not the finest freeness. There's only shaking. How does that but the wear (indented main switch ...!?) Effect, I can not fathom, nor does my.

The lack of understanding of a previous speaker, given the existing safety devices I can not understand. Surely, however, the device must be ensured that someone puts his finger to where they do not belong. But the lid, which you must raise at least 39 mm before even a 1 mm wide gap is created, not even a contortionist could squeeze a finger through, expresses (only!) In the fully closed state a thin plastic pin down. Unfortunately, the whole thing is so moronic constructed so that the lid instead of 39 mm must only move entire 1-2 mm up to interrupt the contact and stop the mill! This is not a security feature that is botch! The vibrations during the grinding process "droning" the cover very much of its own accord so far up! And unfortunately, unfortunately, practice makes the pretty design here a spanner in the works, because the lid can unfortunately drauflegen nothing to complain him - he is so smooth and round, that everything falls down, which does not have a suction cup.

So when I turn it on, then I consider myself constantly ready to leap towards coffee grinder, and also press repeatedly fixed the lid. Otherwise I guarantee once or twice a week a "coffee interruptus". And because the actually quite precisely adjustable coffee quantity is controlled only by a simple timer that is not registered an empty spilled grinder and the "rausgeleierten" after an unplanned interruption due to a lid generally begins again from the start of counting, it is better that 20 60 seconds and stand by and watch.

That the coffee powder like next fall when removing the drawer, I can also confirm. I have therefore accustomed aufzustauchen the whole device shortly before I gather the charge. Whether the durability of the device, however, is so conducive, I doubt it.

Absolutely ridiculous, I find on Amazon, the list of eligible coffees! Amazon also sells potato mashers, but I have still not found, in the appropriate potato varieties would be given ... What a crock!

I just wonder how much money I actually have to spend on a real working mill! Nowadays, when everyone looks only to the price, quality is indeed no longer manufactured. Even if I would put three times the price on the table, I got it with a high probability but only expensive waste sold.

This in any case seems to crave human affection - it will only work properly when at work the hand (= lid) holds her and when she can safely imagine constipation problems taking care of "mom or dad".
