Well I waited to write a review  im not happy with this machine … the problem is that it shuts off before all the water has run through so my coffee basket is filled with grounds  water that has not finished running through.. I make sure I do not fill the back over the water line … so this has giving me nothing but a headache  a mess to clean every time I have used it ..the only good thing is the carafe that goes in the fridge as far as the cheap plastic coffee maker I will probably end up throwing it out so it looks like I paid 40 for a carafe for the fridge .. very disappointing…
