I bought one of these about 6 months ago. It made great coffee twice per day until it suddenly caught fire and filled my home with noxious smoke. Normally, the machine brews coffee and keeps it warm afterward. But today, it brewed the coffee, quietly warmed it for about half an hour, then erupted in a noisy and foul smelling electrical fire.If you are looking for a small home appliance that might someday burn your house down, killing you and your entire family, then look no further. This is the coffee maker for you.
