I remember being confused by the term "door furniture" a favourite of builders merchants for doorknobs and the like.
I also remember, in my younger days, the first real sales push by BMW motorcycles.Their bikes arrived with rather interestingly translated instruction manuals, which caused a lot of hilarity in the motorcycle papers of the time - to be echoed when the Japanese invasion vanguard arrived in their crates.
It took a while before they realised a professioal translator might be a good idea !
