Review of Mr. Coffee CGX7 5-Cup Programmable Coffeemaker, Black

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)We bought this 5-cup coffeemaker in September 2009 because we were unable to find a 4-cup replacement carafe at Wal-Mart and ordering one on-line cost as much as a new 4 or 5-cup maker.The new 5-cup coffeemaker worked well until January 2010 when we started experiencing what we assumed were power interruptions because the time and timer had to be reset 2 or 3 or more times a day.A "short" time later (pun intended), the display itself became fainter AND the coffeemaker would in fact lose power(shut off), sometimes right in the middle of making a new batch.
We are not heavy coffee drinkers, making only 1 batch per day.We assume the problems occurred because the buttons for the clock and timer are located just below where the carafe sits where either water or coffee is bound to seep into the button contacts, causing these problems.
One more thing.The last Mr. Coffee we owned didn't have the metal band around the bottom of the carafe.This new one does and, when you fill the carafe with water, some gets "trapped" in the steel band until you go to pour it in the coffeemaker reservoir and then it dribbles out on the counter.
