I like this unit a lot I love the color and for the most part it did a beautiful job making coffee. We did have a problem that's why we're replacing it all around the heating element the plastic self-destructed cracked as if it looked like it had been impacted but it had not been impacted and it did stop putting water through the unit to make the coffee we are quieted capable of fixing some things but this was not fixable we had to throw it away as I say this is my second one the one I'm ordering now is my replacement I'm sure I bought this unit at least a year or so ago. But all in all I'm very pleased with the unit the fact that itself destructed I don't have any answers for that.
