Why does the Mr Coffee Cocomotion leak like a sieve?

As with other posters, we've never had an issue with ours leaking and have been using it for many years. Sounds like a defect, or like it may have been cracked by dropping/dishwasher/etc.

I have never had problems with a leak and have been using mine daily in the winter for a number of years. Sounds like a defect.

where is it leaking from? I've never had that problem with mine and we use ours often. Make sure that you aren't overfilling. I think 32 oz, (4 cups) is the max.

It's probably because of the cord. The same warning is on my toaster and it says the cord contains lead and advised to wash your hands after touching. So coffee brewed in it should be fine, just don't lick the cord! The same warning is on Christmas tree light cords, artificial Christmas trees, etc., because they contain lead.

Hi, check that the siphon tube is connected fully and that no coffee ground "gunk" is in the small strainer. Cleaning this part with a toothbrush helps. The other thing is to see that the silver dispenser bar is engaging all the way.

It sounds like you are either not using enough coffee, or you are using a filter, which is not needed. It takes at least 6 heaping tablespoons of coffee.

It is ground too fine for regular coffee makers, It will probably clog the filter before it would drip through.

I hated that coffee maker! Threw it in the trash. Tried everything to keep it from overflowing but nothing worked. Sorry

I have not had this problem. When it is turned on and getting warmed up it will some times drizzle out from where the coffee comes. But my machine hasn't leaked.

You might try using less coffee beans in the grinder. Also, try using the "1-4" feature, so that the water flows a little bit slower.

I had the same problem in the beginning. I now only pour in enough milk to JUST cover the circular wire frother. It still still gives me the finish to my frothy, morning coffee that I am looking for. Hope this is helpful.

The only thing I can think of is that you my be using too much coffee or the holes in the bottom of the filter might be some how obstructed or not properly made at the factory. There is a good instructional video on you tube that I recommend watching. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_DwPGkq8SFE There might me something helpful to you in the video. This is how I learned to do it.

That is definitely a defective valve. In normal operation, the valve is held by gravity against the top of the percolation column and only rises a small fraction of an inch when the pressure is high enough to allow the coffee to escape into the upper chamber. Return this pot immediately and request a replacement.

Make sure the inside of the filter holder is clean, over time the gasket will loosen and the handle should end up centered. As for the drip/steam, you may have packed the coffee too tight, or your grind is too fine. It takes a few tries to get it right.

I believe that the coffee pot is defective. The last measure of coffee is not deposited into the pot instead, is dribbled onto the platform causing a significant puddle.

We use one in our office here and have run into this problem only two or three times when we first got it. We figured out a few things that can lead to this issue:-users mistakenly leaving the drip-stop in the half-shut position when brewing-loose grounds building up in the drip stop mechanism after successive brews (especially overflows) and blocking water flow-coffee that is too finely ground-gold filter not being seated fully/properly in the basket

This Mr. Coffee uses a basket shape rather than the cone shape. I found a supply at both Walmart and Kroger.

it has happened to me once...it appeared to be an issue with the amount of coffee I had placed into it
