After a friendly dialog with Swissmicros I decided to return the DM15 as well as the 15L.
I felt that the misfortune haunts me and it was a bit too much having to repair and replace parts on brand new units directly out of the box.

I’ll keep my eyes on the DM32 instead - or perhaps 41x.
:)
The HP-15C is quite iconic and has a handy format, but I understand your reservation after the 3rd issue.

I had some reservations with the keyboard of the DM42 myself, but I'm probably more obstinate, I'm still trying (others are happy with the latest versions so it's encouraging). :D It's a small production and I think it's just difficult to get things right when everything is changing all the time in the industry.

Yeah.
That’s why I wanted the DM15.
I do understand complexity and cost with smaller batches and limited productions. These are top notch products from a very dedicated producer.
I believe I simply were unfortunate and received a couple of lemons.

My DM42 is lovely and keyboard superb.
I hope to complement it with a DM32 at least. Perhaps even a 41x. But the 32 looks very tempting.

Michael at SM kindly arranged with full refund.

Now I’m instead waiting for the DM32 to get released. :)
