The heating element broke after 5 years at my main house and then 3 weeks later the exact same problem occurred at the vacation house

If the filter gets pushed over it will brew incorrectly

I bought this machine to replace a technivorm moccamaster that i thought overpromised and underdelivered

So to add coffee you have to take out the carafe and the reservoir together

Also once the coffee is done brewing you take both off and have to do something with the reservoir as it doesnt attach to the machine on its own

Too bad the gold filter from my braun doesnt ft the filter basket on this machine

In an ideal world i would have gotten the more expensive competitor to this but i just couldnt justify the cost of the machine at this point
