Well, I resisted posting this until I had a resolution, but it doesn't seem like it's going to be a successful one
All this stems from an initial enquiry with Kannastor support back in January.
It took them until October to replace my grinder only to send another with worse manufacturing defects.
Their warranty states
So I informed them that it had some problems and they began by saying it should have been in perfect condition, and:
So I sent some photos
Pictures 1 and 2 show a couple of the chipped teeth.
Pictures 3, 4 and 5 show the incredibly rough, chipped rim of the top section. Even with the lid screwed on, you can feel these when you run your fingers around the outside
Picture 6 shows the ill fitting plastic ring. This is a minor annoyance. I have tried pressing it down, pushing it into the groove with a fingernail and taking it off and flipping it over, but it still refuses to sit flat.

Then silence for a week
I gave them a nudge asking if the pictures were ok and received a reply thanking me for letting him know
Another few days later with no more emails I asked if there had been any verdict on the pictures and was told they would send me another if I paid for shipping... I thought ok, and reluctantly agreed.
After silence for another few days I requested an invoice for the shipping cost.
2 days later they emailed saying I could call them to give my credit card details but still no mention of cost.
I emailed again asking for the cost and was finally told the cost would be $52 by FedEx or $48 by post.
Now forgive me if I'm wrong, but this seems a bit high for a tiny lightweight grinder.
I send larger parcels around the world for my workplace, and there's no way it should cost that much.
I will not be buying any Kannastor products again if they cannot support them properly.
I'll update if anything changes.
