CFG STELIO COFFEE GRINDER EDIT

Perfect as expected

After a year and a half of complete standstill: nothing works anymore! After reporting it to the customer service department, I still haven't received a response!

Excellent grinding results. Operation is self-explanatory and simple. The coffee grinder is nice and small and quiet (compared to my previous grinders); its size and appearance make it suitable for any household.

The machine is simple and straightforward to use. -- The only thing I've noticed is that when you remove the container with the ground coffee, coffee always flies out of the grinder outlet. But that's probably something you'll always have and can't stop.

Easy to use, beans are ground to the desired grind, excellent results, very good noise level, high-quality workmanship of the device.

The grinding performance is very poor; it feels like you always get the same result. The quality isn't really good. Fine coffee grounds for, say, espresso? Forget it. It's a shame, it was an advent calendar gift and has to go back. The dust production is also terrible. It does smell nice in the kitchen after grinding, but having to clean half the countertop after every use wasn't what I had in mind.

After a year of successful use, the grinder no longer turns on. The power button seems to have a mechanical weakness!

was initially skeptical due to the bad reviews, but I took a closer look at the grinder in the factory outlet and tested it, then bought it at the special price of €49.90 (Fischhalle). I was torn between a conical burr grinder and a disc grinder. Opinions really differ on that! :-) So, my conclusion: I mainly drink cappuccino from a Gastroback portafilter machine without a built-in grinder. And occasionally coffee from a French press (depending on the type of coffee). For my machine, the finest grind setting is ideal. I add 0.5 to the cup size. If I want a double espresso, I have to grind for 3 cups at setting 1. Perfect. The pressure sensor on the espresso machine indicates the optimum, so the grind is perfect. The same goes for the coarse grind for the French press, setting 6. Ideal. I use it every day at breakfast and haven't had any problems so far. I guess there's always a dud. And let's be honest, you mainly write a review when you're dissatisfied. That's why I wanted to share my experience. A clear recommendation.

The coffee grinder stopped working after only two months. It has been with WMF for repair for over a month now. There is still no information on when we will get it back working. Such repair times are unacceptable.

Unfortunately, my machine broke down after only two months. The grind setting no longer adjusts, and I can't switch the machine off using the button. Removing the grinding disc also doesn't work as described.
