AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Beautiful Space Age model 'M12' coffee grinder produced by HM Mellert in the 1960s-70s.

Stunning object with a very modern design, extremely current, and easily fitting into all modern kitchens thanks to its small size and Space Age style.

Entirely made of ABS plastic in a beautiful orange color, with a dust collector and smoked plastic lids.

Using the lower white knob, you can adjust the grind size of the coffee bean. It turns on and off using the side switch. The usage time is 2 minutes, as can be read below.

Aesthetically preserved in excellent vintage condition, with shiny and intact plastic. Only a small missing corner on the upper edge of the tray should be noted, as shown in the detailed photos.

I tested the device and it works perfectly. When turned on, sparks are visible on the motor due to the electric brushes, but they diminish afterwards. They do not affect the operation and are caused by the type of motor, which is from the 1970s.

Measurements: 17.5 x 13 x 8.5 cm.
