Before leaving for Germany, I saw a life selection online shopping and selling Danish Bodum double-layer cups on Facebook. The arc lines and light-colored glass are very attractive. I tried to go to Germany to see if the price is more affordable. Sure enough...Even Wendy bought a tea set and cold kettle!
How to get to the Danish brand Bodum store
This shop is located on Zell Straße (German: Kaiserstraße / another translation: Kaiserstrasse), which is lined with brand shops. At that time, the hotel was located near Frankfurt Central Station. You can take the express railway S-Bahn and get on at Platz der Republik. , Get off at Willy-Brandt-Platz and walk there.
But we started as a group of four, so we changed to Frankfurt Central Station to buy a three-zone group one-day ticket, and took the U-Bahn U4 or U5 line to the Willy-Brandt-Platz station.
▲ The pink color is the express railway S-Bahn route, but we take the subway. After getting off the train, walk for about 5 minutes to reach it (red dotted line).
Brief introduction of Bodum Danish brand
Founded in Copenhagen, Denmark in 1944. After the Second World War, Peter Boudum, the founder of "Hundred Wastes", started with imported kitchen supplies and tableware. Until 1974, his son and art school cooperated to redefine the brand-related design and develop and extend the product range. , Shaped the "Good design should not be expensive." company business philosophy, and continued to produce a series of meticulous but practical household products.
▲ There are more than 50 directly-operated stores worldwide, one of which is Frankfurt, Germany.
▲ When I visited in early October, I happened to have a discount on some products.
▲ These exquisite home appliances, cups, and pots alone are enough for me to choose them slowly.
List of products and environment of the Bodum store in Frankfurt, tax refund procedures
The shop is divided into 3 floors. B1 is mainly for basic glass products, all kinds of double-layer cups, storage tanks, small tableware, and measuring cups. Originally, I planned to move a lot back to Taiwan, but Wendy stopped it, mainly because of insufficient luggage space. , Although I have purchased a Rimowa suitcase, but the space over there is also very tight for other trophies. (Remind everyone, buy well in Germany, don’t bring too many suitcases)
On the first floor is the Bodum brand coffee shop and the counter checkout. The brand thinking is that in addition to providing consumers with coffee, tea sets, and daily necessities, the directly-operated store also enters a coffee shop in a lifestyle style, allowing guests to directly experience the use The atmosphere and experience products brought by these products, so even the toilets on the second floor are all decorated with branded products.
When a group of us came to the second floor, some double-layer cups or tea sets pushed by Taiwan agents were displayed here in full. Compared with Taiwan, the tax refund price is about 6% to 7% off. If it is a discount Products or basic styles like the B1 floor have a price difference of 3 to 5 discounts, or even cheaper, so my friend was pushed back to Taiwan and bought a lot of single products.
