Title: Leaks Badly
Product review: We had a Krups that we used for 12 years before it finally gave out--solid as a rock.This cheap, low-quality plastic machine is like nothing I've ever seen from Krups before. It immediately leaked all over the place. It's obvious the seal on the thing isn't strong enough, so that when the pressure gets high enough, it fails. At first I looked at the basket and saw coffee around the top of the rim, and thought maybe it was my fault. But after meticulously cleaning everything, and using less that half a basket of coffee, it still leaked, and I realized the coffee around the rim was because the seal had failed.I also note in the instructions that it says not to tamp the coffee down! What does this suggest? It can't handle the pressure.It goes back--don't buy this thing.
