Makes great coffee and the hot water feature is a nice little bonus that works well for making tea or hot cereal. Simple controls and easy to use and clean, although the set-up instructions for programmed brewing were a bit confusing.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Easy coffee to make. Nice to have the hot water option. Brewing is a bit slower than I expected.

There is a leak where the water hose is connected by a clamp. Unable to set overnight for brewing in the morning as all the water runs out on my counter.

We’re sorry to hear about the leaking issue you experienced with the Coffee Plus 12 Cup Coffee Maker & Hot Water System, as this can certainly be inconvenient—especially when using the auto-brew feature. In some cases, checking that the water hose is securely positioned, the parts are all properly and securely aligned, and the unit is placed on a level surface may help prevent leaks. Our Consumer Assistance Center can provide further troubleshooting and support at 1-800-726-0190—please reference Ticket #8900628830when calling.
