Review on Manual coffee grinder Timemore CHESTNUT X-safari, green by Stanislaw Kosciukiew ᠌

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Nothing ordinary, a normal product.

It seems that I bought a "premium" coffee grinder, at a price at the Comandante level, but Chinese indifference has penetrated this segment as well. Taking it out of the box, I found that the metal pen was smeared with black garbage and the logo was smeared with something, but it didn’t matter - I wiped it off with an eraser. Further, it turned out that the grinding adjustment knob in the extreme position stops at 23 o'clock instead of 0. It seems like a trifle, you have to add one to the current value, but it still spoils the whole experience of use. The ground coffee hopper after their "premium click" continues to turn further and do not stand up straight, because of this, when grinding, it dangles, which creates the feeling that it is on snot. Grinding on C2 was heavier, but it was comfortable to hold, this model is too heavy and due to the fact that the hopper goes back and forth - grinding is not pleasant. A coffee grinder with a straightened handle is extremely unstable, so you can’t put it on the table, you must always fold it. It seems like a good grinding, a lot of chips that you don’t need to count clicks, but everything is spoiled by the defects described above. I would like to return the goods, but I can’t anymore, because of the “liberation operation” - I managed to grab it for 23, but I’m not ready to take it for 30k.
