Strong plastic smell

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Sadly, entire unit smelled heavily of plastic and the coffee tasted like plastic as well! Had to send it back.
The coffee is not hot when it is brewed and after 5-10 min in the carafe it is almost lukewarm. There is not a way to adjust the temp either. we are very unhappy. I have to warm my milk separately to have a piping hot cup of coffee.
After reading reviews and seeing it was top rated on wire cutter I was sort of hoping I’d like this better. I find it not intuitive to set the timer. Takes me several attempts and I’ve owned it a week. Wish the capacity was larger than 9 cups. Not quite enough for me and my husband. Like the sleek design though. Coffee comes out good and hot. Doesn’t leak and I like the thermal Carafe.
This is a great coffee maker, but the execution is incredibly poor. A few parts of the machine are made out of plastic which absorbs an insane level of plastic taste. Impossible to make good coffee.
There is a distinct rubber smell from hoses that distribute water from the water tank and the one passing into the carafe. After two weeks of use I was hoping it would diminish, but not yet. Aroma impacts taste.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the third Coffee brewing system I have bought from your company. They’re great very simple to operate. I appreciate your understanding with the problem I had. Thank you.
