I have to agree with maltipoo — while I love this coffee maker in general I too have had problems with the lid latch breaking off.

I chose this brand/model originally because I was limited in counter to cabinet space to 14 1/2 inches — the Krups and Cuisinarts were too tall.

The machine makes a great pot of coffee, no doubt about it; and little else in life gives as much joy as lying in your toasty bed and hearing the grinder go off on the timer, preparing your morning fix.

BUT: I had to replace my first unit when the latch tab broke off the lid and Krazy-Glue couldn’t get enough purchase to keep it back on. The same thing happened to its replacement about four months later. I still use it, but have to use a rubber band wrapped around the lid and brew-basket latches to make it work. Such a pity.

I also thought some of the operations are pretty counter-intuitive, like having to press the “Mill” button to turn OFF the grinder for using pre-ground coffee. What’s up with that, Melitta? Setting the clock/timer is a little funky, too.

While I can’t give this coffee maker an overall positive review, I should mention that I bought one for my 75-year-old mother, and she’s had no problem with hers.
