At first we thought this was a great coffeemaker. Reasonable design, relatively easy to load & clean, and it was available at the store down the street first thing on a Saturday morning when our old coffee maker had died the previous night.
All was fine for a couple of days. Great coffee, quiet production. Then it started to leak. With 12 cups of water added at night, it would leak two cups by morning. With 10 cups of water added, it would leak two cups. With 8 cups of water added, it would leak two cups. As we were seeing steadily diminishing returns, we gave up at that point and returned it.
This is not the fault of Best Buy, they were very nice. There is just something wrong with the design. Maybe the one we had got dropped on its head at some point. And looking at it, it's really sort of clunky & ugly.
