Mr. Coffee FTX25

We have had two of these coffee makers. The first died a year after purchase. I wrote to them, and they replaced it. The replacement was obviously a reconditioned unit (or possibly a return) as it was… poorly packaged. We have had the same issues that other reviewers have noted...leaking, slow brewing. One thing that we find VERY irritating is the beeping. It beeps 3 times when it's done brewing. It beeps when it shuts off. It beeps when it's done cleaning. All of the beeping is annoying! Trust me when I say it WILL wake up the whole house! The adjustable warmer is worthless. We don't want *warm* coffee, and even on the hottest setting, we have to nuke each cup. If you want a pretty coffee maker, this is pretty. If you want a reliable coffee maker that makes hot coffee, quickly and cleanly, don't buy this one.

I had this Mr. Coffee model for about a year before it stopped working. So - silly me - I went and bought a similar one to replace it. It stopped working after 2 months. It STARTS to brew, then prematurely… stops. I think it has something to do with crappy electronics in the faceplate. Mr. Coffee coffeemakers are not what they used to be. And this model is a piece of junk, in my humble opinion. BEWARE!
