Brim Trio K-Cup Compatible 12-Cup Coffee Maker (Open Box)

8 Month review: So after monthly cleanings, yesterday while making a cup of tea in the k-cup dispenser, it kept running and running for around 7 minutes before I manually shut it off. I did a cleaning this morning, and it did the same thing. It was steaming off the water without putting it into the cup. After adding more water, I restarted it, and it was on for about 10 minutes trying to brew the water before the entire machine suddenly died and has no power going to it. Although at first I was sort of happy with a substandard product, I expect anything I buy to last at least a year. My last coffee pot lasted 12 years, and in fact still works, I was just trying to get a k-cup addition. Strongly recommend against this product. So it has been a month since I got this. So far, it has been good. I love the design of the coffee pot, it does pour easier than the typical coffee pot. One thing I don't like is the buttons. Each one has something to do with time, but they aren't labeled very well. How do you set the main time? How do you set the auto start time? How do you set the auto off time? I have lost power once, and already had to open up the manual again to remember exactly how I did it the first time. I doubt I will remember again, so I will need to look up the instructions again next time I lose power.
