The product, in the report: 4.5” Handheld Grinder
The consumer indicates that the handle of his grinder has a male thread and three holes with female thread located one on top and one on each side. The consumer states that the hole on the left side stripped but he was able to avoid injuries to his hand. The consumer believes the threads may be made of aluminum thus too soft. The consumer states that the product is used once or twice per month.
The consumer plans on keeping his grinder for at least the next thirty days in case an investigation ensues.
