I bought two of these back in August and for some reason they both leak water down in the basin by the warmer. What causes this?

I have the same issue and don't have a solution yet (other than cleaning up the leaked water each day). Does anyone have a solution?

What I noticed on mine is that there is a spring loaded lip on back of the machine that is meant to divert leaks of water from the join on the lead to the drip area. This water is to be routed back but instead leaks to where the warmers are and when full leaks out of the machine

I have had 3 of this same model pot because I love it but have the same problem. HB has been very quick to replace the pot but so far I have found NO solution to the problem. I have to keep a small sponge in the overflow area and change it daily. Seems HB could find a solution.

I'm having the same issue. Twelve cup coffeemaker, but I end up with only 10 cups in the pot. The rest of it (water) ends up under the pot. To empty the extra water means I have to take all the parts off and dump excess water out of the main pot Has anyone found a solution?

We use a turkey baster to suck the water out of the under-the-pot reservoir. It's just a crappy design. Engineering should never have let it out the door. We had 2 older models that didn't have this problem.

While I don't have the unit (bought it for a friend), if the item isn't working, and you can't return it - if the item is heating, I'd try to see if "maybe" the water spouts became clogged? If you have no other recourse, you may wish to check with the manufacturer and ask them what they suggest? It may be something as simple as steam-cleaning the machine with something they've found works well?

If your water flow is falling off and your getting a cup or two out of your unit it could be the pressure tank battler is leaking. replace it and restore the water flow again.

Sounds like you have air trapped in the system. You could try taking the filters out and flushing the system with water and reinstalling the filters. I'm assuming that you have no leaks in it.

It's possible that your water is already above the temperature that the heater is set for. Either that or it's a defective unit, like the other answer said!

Seems to be a common problem with this unit. If you look closely there are two holes on the bottom. Mine started leaking from one of those. A safety feature perhaps, but seems to be a flaw also. I ended up replacing mine! It started leaking about 14 months after purchase. I used it every day.

I suspect that the water is not hot enough, either because of the washing machine settings or because the water coming out of the water heater is not hot enough, or both. I am not a technician but this can be the cause, specially if you tried different bottles. Otherwise it could be just one bad bottle.

We've had our 2 heaters now for a year and I think they come out together. Keeping the air from getting dried out. Need to fill the water once a day.

We have not had problems like that. We are on our second one now and haven't had any problems except our first just quit heating and the water froze. We had our first one 4 years....

Mine also started to leak. I sent it in for repairs and it has worked fine without any leaks since.

It massively changes temperature with pressure changes, and for some reason, every ahower seems to have a pressure and temperature drop. I can't account the cause of this, unless it's the unit doing it. Occasionally the unit leaks a cup or two from somewhere in back. We keep a bucket under it.

Rob, if you are saying water leaking from where the two housing meet, it is possible that ceramic seal is not sealing properly. make sure to check it again and clear it of all particles. Are you able to put a picture, I was not able to fully understand your problem from your description.

Not quite sure your question. What I did was replaced the whole parts. In my case, the leaking was between the parts and the water tank. Actually, that happened more than 1 year already. I can check it tonight. Good luck.

I havent been able to use mine as it leaks in the house. I am not sure if it is the waterer or the hose which i bought new.

We have two that worked fine for about 3 months. We are on well water so mineral build up has slowed the rocker arm to where they don't rotate. They both leak around the valve body unless you get them balanced just right. After years of fighting various sprinkler heads (for general watering) of all descriptions and costs, I have resigned myself to only getting one season out of any of them. Sorry, wish I had better news.

You are not alone. I have the exact same issue. I too am on my second one and even that leaks now. It's annoying.

Hope someone has an answer, I have the same problem including one that leaks. What a waste of $$$
