BOB's Tuesday Toast - 1/14/14
Here’s to the makers of coffee grinders -
May they rethink the design just a bit - ;))
===
Santa brought me a VERY nice new toy -
A Krups Coffee Grinder -
Model F-203 -
With GREAT reviews - HERE -
That he found at a local store -
For HALF the online price - ;))
It’s EASY to use - ;))
You take the lid off -
You put some beans in the top -
Put the lid back on -
Plug it in -
Press down on the lever -
For a few seconds -
At a time -
Until it’s the way you want it - ;))
Then you unplug it -
Take/wiggle the lid off -
And the oval shape makes pouring the ground coffee -
Into whatever container you have handy -
EASY -
If you are Right-Handed -
BUT -
Since I am LEFT-HANDED -
I have to turn it around -
And -
The cord is in my face -
Which tells me -
That there were no LEFTIES on the design team - ;))
Now don’t get me wrong -
I understand why they designed it that way - ;))
If they put the cord -
On the OTHER side -
They would probably get complaints -
Like mine -
From those who are RIGHT-HANDED - ;))
But why discriminate? - ;))
Why make it awkward for LEFTIES only? - ;))
If they put the cord -
On the END where the lever is -
Opposite the pour “spout” -
It would be in the way - kinda -
For EVERYONE -
When you pressed the lever -
But not when you tried to pour - ;))
But then again - it’s probably just me - ;))

Maybe it's time to get on line to the corporations; do a "contact us" and make the suggestion - who knows? Maybe they'll redesign the grinder and send you the new grinder!!!
Wouldn't that be something?!?! - ;))
Must be designed by the guy who made my iron ... either right handed or never irons anything!
Through the years I have had my share of right-handed irons - but I prefer those with the cord coming out of the CENTER of the back end. I think that is a MUCH better design - ;))
Is there any way that you can email or write them about this. Center makes sense for everybody, right or left.
KatieM suggested that - and it IS in the center - of the BACK - to THEM - ;))
