About the carafe

Very pleased with the design and quality of the coffee but very displeased with the carafe. Why can't ANY company make a carafe that doesn't dribble coffee all over the counter. This one seems to be worse than others. If you pour it slow the coffee runs down the side of the carafe, if you pour it faster it runs over the side of the lip.
No one in the family can pour water into the machine or pour coffee out of the pot without it spilling all over. Never had this problem with any other machine, very frustrating. We are going to buy another brand which is a shame because this one is practically brand new.
COFFEE MAKER ADEQUATE FOR A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME UNTIL THE WATER SHOWERHEAD WARPED SO BADLY THAT THE BREW BASKET COVER WOULDN,T CLOSE SECURELY & CAUSE STEAMING VAPORS TO ESCAPE--------------------------- SEEMS LIKE POOR TESTING
Floods counter top with coffee as the lid of the carafe is poorly designed. I am continuing to use it with out the lid of the carafe and this has stopped the leaking and dripping.
I bought this coffee maker a few months ago. The lid that covers the water reserve sticks out from the rest of the pot. It leaks water all over the place. Just about a week ago it started leaking coffee too. I want my money back or a different model coffee maker.
