In this the CPH lounge is still better, with soft chairs and more 'at home'-like atmosphere. [note: I am not trying to say that the CPH lounge is superior to German lounges. I simply find that LH is quite unable to create spaces where one can actually rest]
The lounges or interior aren't the problem, it is the appalling offering and quality of the food. Even a small offering of warm food that is accessible for non-Scandinavian travelers as well would be a massive improvement. Heck, just having some slices of pizza would really do the job. Add 100SEK to the ticket price and provide 40SEK worth of slices and it would be a financially sound and customer satisfying success.
