 AVOID THIS ONE!!! July 10, 2008
Kimberly Newcomb (Knoxville, TN)
Read the reviews before me regarding the overflow situation and ERR2 code. I purchased the first coffeepot a couple of months ago and it overflowed (about 10+ cups) all over the counter. I chalked it down to perhaps I didn't have the caraffe on the base properly so I cleaned up the mess and went on with it. Several weeks later, the same thing happened again but this time, after the cleanup, the ERR2 code came on. I assumed that the water overflow damaged the internal computer somehow. I boxed the thing up and took it back and got another one in exchange. Well, after 2 weeks and finally getting rid of that plastic taste...what do you know...ERR2 on the replacement unit. I refuse to believe that this is a fluke!!! This product is poorly designed and of low quality. I had a $20 Mr. Coffee for 15 years before I "upgraded" to this piece of junk! Kitchenaid just needs to stick with designing mixers, in my opinion...
KITCHEN AID COFFE MAKER May 13, 2008
Sherran J. Krawtz
I RECEIVED A DEFECTIVE COFFEE MAKER. I OWNED THE COFFEE MAKER FOR 2 DAYS AND THE BUTTONS ON THE TIMER FELL INTO THE COFFEE MAKER. KITCHEN AID WOULD NOT REPLACE IT FREE OF SERVICE. I HAD TO PAY SHIPPING TO SEND THE DEFECTIVE COFFEMAKER BACK. I WAS VERY DISAPPOINTED IN KITCHEN AID'S SERIVICE. SHIPPING SHOULD OF BEEN PAID FOR ON A $100.00 COFFEE MAKER. I DO NOT RECOMMEND ANYTHING MADE BY KITCHEN AID. SERVICE WAS TERRIBLE.
This coffee pot is terrible! April 22, 2008
Proud Mom
I bought this coffee pot because I loved the candy apple red color, but I should have known better from experience. Back in 2001, I bought a Kitchenaide coffee pot that broke 4 times in one year. The digital clock and timer kept malfunctioning. I returned it 3 times to the manufacturer for a replacement, then on the 4th time, I finally threw the pot in the trash and bought a Kenmore. The Kenmore was great but unfortunately, I broke the carafe and they don't sell replacement carafes. The problem with this coffee pot for me was that it leaked coffee out the bottom. We set the timer so we have coffee in the morning.. and when we'd go to poor a cup, we would find coffee all over the counter. We have no idea how or why it was happening. I tried to give this poor pot a chance but it just wouldn't work out. I returned the item and bought a Mr. Coffee. Do not bother wasting your money on a Kitchenaide pot of any kind.. you're paying for the name and the pots are terrible!!
Yuk! Pooey! March 10, 2008

Brew temp too low to get proper coffee extraction. Taste is hardly tolerable and you must reheat 6oz cup in microwave after a few drinks. My old Melitta made 10 times better coffee and hot. This lousy thing will get returned.
Poor design = poor coffee February 18, 2008

I purchased this product after my old pot finally died, opting for a modern design for a new kitchen. While the design is nice, the coffee is terrible. Operation is fairly simple, but the rate at which the pot boils the water into the filter means you cannot run a very fine grind or the filter will overflow.
Speaking of overflow - the designers built significant drainage on the bottom of the unit and I suspect they knew that there was less than 1/8" difference between the pot being seated for brew and not engaging the drain. The difference means that any excess water in the filter runs down the opening mechanism and on to the hot plate. I take extra care to make sure I seat the pot before each use and still run a 50% chance I will have overflow.
Very poor design, very poor tasting coffee, horrible design, many clean-ups. Do not buy.
