Can water spill out from the lid? It seems there is no cover on the lid to prevent water spill out from the outlet.

There is no cover over the lid spout. The lid goes on tightly though so as long as you aren't holding it upside down you aren't going to spill anything.

Just a standard coffee cup made of plastic. The cap is standard too. No plugs for the drinking and vent hole

Yes. But I discovered afterwards you can purchase this cup for a dollar at the Starbucks store itself.

The overflow problem I had was with pot lid flowing in faster than can drop into pot. So I made drain hole slightly larger. Have not had issues since. Drains into pot fine w/o a mess

No. Why have a sink if you dont want water to come out of it. However, the water comes from the overflow gizmo, if you do not hook it up to the spout then no water will come out at all. It can't be turned on an off like a regular sink. For what its worth, it doesn't use any less water hooked upor not.

It does have a drain hole about 2-3 inches from the top. It suggests sitting the bucket in a sink or tray while it's plugged in just in case. So far, I haven't had the problem of overflowing at all.

I have never had an issue with water but mine are not that close to my sink. You could always add a touch of silicone to prevent water to drip down. If its that close to water make sure you install a GFI receptacle to plug it into.

Also consider your outlet if you plan to leave it plugged in during rain. A lot outdoor outlets have a spring loaded cover that only seals it from water when it's not in use. If you want to leave it plugged in, you need a in-use outdoor outlet cover that's a plastic or metal dome and the power cord feeds in from the bottom. You can pick them up at any home store.

With the lid on, yes, the liquid seemed to trickle out more slowly than other coffee makers. As you indicated, you can take the cover off but I'd rather be able to pour it easily with the cover on.

I bought mine new too and it doesn't leak. If that is the case, I might consider returning it. However, the plug is tricky to get into place and the first time, I actually didn't have it all the way in. I would double check that the plug is pulled all the way through the bottom. There is a little lip on the plug that will come out the button and be firmly in place to the plastic base. Hope this helps!

Yes. The top cover DOES "overlap" the bottom. However, there are several places where water can seep in (terminals, push button for charge gauge, and USB port). I would feel comfortable if not stored directly in the weather.

The outlet must point down. That is the only time it will not take in water. If the outlet is up it will fill with water and short out.

No, but it if sits below the countertop, the outlets are hidden. If it sits above for most of the time you can plug in outlet covers.

I do not have that in mine! It could be defective,but if it holds water and there is no leak,and the place is not thin then I would not worry about it.IT hope this helps!!

No, it doesn't. The charging port and headphone jack are both uncovered, allowing water to get inside.

We don't put a cover on ours. But yes we have a extra cord to reach our outlet.

No! The lid has a hole that does not close (it's a screw on top, but you can't seal the actual opening where you drink from). Even if you did find a plug for it, I wouldn't trust the lid to stay put, and this is a glass tumbler, so it is VERY fragile. I accidentally dropped the lid and it shattered, so I had to buy a second one already. You need to be VERY careful with this item, but it is extremely elegant and for that reason I love it regardless :)

No, but it hasn't been a problem. This means that it won't leak too. It's really light weight, so you can just dump it upside down to get the water out.

We have not had any problems with spilling that I can recall, but I haven't really "tested" the lid for leaking.
