I purchased this just over a year ago to replace a Cuisinart  because it had similar features Of course when the warranty runs out problems occur. I turn it on and it beeps as if the brewing cycle is done. This seems to be a common problem. In the last month the rubber on the pump gets stuck in the brew basket lid. I've cleaned the parts but it didn't help. I'm waiting for the rubber to rip or break off making the brewer useless.
