I just purchased the Toastmaster 1119 Coffee Grinder, because the one that we had gotten about two weeks ago broke. We had a Braun coffee grinder for about 15 years, and it worked great, but finally broke down, and that is when I purchased the one that lasted two weeks. I don't use the coffee grinder to grind coffee, I mostly use it to make bread crumbs. So we are not taxing these machines all that much.
What I was amazed at was that the Toastmaster 1119 Coffee Grinder came with a use and care guide that was about 12 pages long, in English and Spanish. Now this grinder has one button that you push down to operate. I need six pages of instruction to figure out that I press the only button on the thing. And I just love the instructions, like "Remove all packaging materials before using." Thank god they wrote that, because I was going to cut a small hole in the box, pull out the cord and plug it in. And they also remind you about 45 times that "The blades are sharp!" Do tell.
If I was writing the instruction manual for the Toastmaster 1119 Coffee Grinder it would be written on the back of a file card. Plug in then press button. Enough said.
PS I just have to give you this clip from SNL from Saturday.

Do the instructions also tell you what kind of music you should play for your grinder when you're out of the house, just to keep it from getting sad?
