[Translated from Danish] Trustpilot review of Smeg Denmark by Anne (2025-03-21). Smeg coffee grinder (~4 years) failed after prior intermittent issues; disassembly showed worn plastic drive between motor and burrs. Only whole-motor replacement available (~DKK 1079). Separate Smeg kettle also leaked and corroded despite regular descaling.
