it's my coffee maker. yep...it died. it has been sick for some time...but this morning, I just can't seem to revive it.

This coffee maker came to me in a very funny way. well, funny to me. For my bridal shower, my mother in law decided NOT to shop from my registry...and instead bought me over $300 worth of plates....with ROOSTERS on them. Now...to each his own....but she has been to my house many times and knows that we do not have ANYTHING like that. nothing at all. so we kindly accepted, then took them back to Williams Sonoma and got a $317 credit to use there. We bought a nice coffee maker, a nice bread box, a submersible blender, and a few knick knacks. we made out quite nicely actually

the last couple of months, the coffee maker has been shutting off a lot...kinda like it is shorting out. the company told us that we just need to clean it with vinegar. well, we did that...as we do all the time anyway...and it still was crapping the bed. it is still under warranty, so we called again and they want us to pay $10 for shipping a new one to us, plus pay to ship the old one to them via ups. well...we have decided to wait until it is completely dead...and I woke up this morning to a completely dead coffee maker.

We have the exact same coffee maker! We had it for about a year and then it started acting up, it just wouldn't brew all the water! They told us to do the same thing and we did and it did ok for awhile. Then it started acting up again. If we made 8 cups, it would brew 4-5 cups of water.
So we paid the $10 and got a new one sent to us as well.
It actually happened again once so far on this one. Obviously there is some kind of design flaw on this model and it's really a shame! We love not having a pot!
