    I agree Mike regarding some cheaper appliances that are "bin not service" - but in this case, I'm pretty sure the cover unclips ... if you know how.


    It's just a little frustrating, that perfectly safe and usable products - perhaps all coffee makers - may well end up being binned in this instance ... and I've seen similar things happening with so-called "PAT Testing" over the past 35 years or more.
