Title: Very short life span
Product review: I have owned the Krups GVX2 burr grinder for about six months, grinding about three ounces of coffee beans per day. I agree with other reviewers that it is noisy, but I expect that from a coffee grinder. I agree that the self-feeding mechanism is poor, and I have to keep gently shaking the grinder to get the beans to feed through. The receptacle for the ground coffee is a bit hard to get in and out, and usually results in some spilt grounds when it suddenly pulls out. However, I considered all these as minor inconveniences, because it does make a very fine grind and gave all the appearances of lasting forever. Yesterday I would have given it 4 stars.Today, the light comes on, but the grinder doesn't work at all. I am mechanically minded, but see no obvious fix.$60 for a six month life is not a worthwhile investment.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
