Worked great until it died soon after purchasing

This cable was great until it completely stopped working a couple months after purchase.  Anytime I would plug it into any base, it would not work to charge my phone.  I know it was not the base because other cables would always work, the cable was the common denominator.  I contacted Amazon to see if I could reach out to the seller since the return period had passed by a few weeks.  Amazon customer service was great and refunded my purchase.  I'm disappointed because I really did like the cable before it just up and died.

OK I realize these may not be made for a three to four times per day use. But that's what I do. I have loved it until it just died. I had none of the reported odor issues. It is a tad loud, but it heats the water fast & it sure gets hot - - perfect for tea. Exactly what I wanted & correct size. Problem is - after six (6) months it's just died. Now I guess it's still under warranty. Problem is - I have to find the paperwork & I have too much to do to deal with that. I've had Krups & something else before. The American brand died after a year. The Krups lasted for about 18 months. Now this one only 6 months. Bad trend as far as I'm concerned. So - would I recommend this one - No. I can not do that, six months is not long enough lifespan for this item at this price.

I was very happy with this product and used it every day for 4 months until it just died randomly. Put it down on a bed after doing some reading, picked it up again a few hours later and it was dead. No battery light, no response. Really pissed off. Won't buy refurbished products again without a normal warranty.

Edit: amazon replaced it anyway and its been working fine ever since.

I was SOOOO excited to get this extractor! I was so impressed by how it performed initially.  It was high powered and worked like a charm.  It was so great!  Unfortunately, it died on me way too soon!  I was making a smoothie without any really hard ingredients in it other than some frozen spinach and as it was blending the motor began to smell like it was burning and it's short life was over.  I washed it and tried to use it several times after that and it will not work at all.  I am so disappointed.  It's a really great item, the cups are huge and it was really easy to use and wash.  I really wished it was still working.
I received this product at a discount for my honest review.

We need a small microwave for light use and were happy with this microwave since our purchase until it suddenly died without any warning.  We are considering buying another microwave rather than paying to repair this unit.

Worked fine for a little over a year and just died.  For the price and length of service, I think I might look elsewhere for replacement.  It was compact and easy to move between equipment and performed well until it's untimely death.

I loved this thing the few months that it worked.  Used it to broadcast iTunes to my stereo.  When it died, I was very sad and ended up spending $80 and about 4 days running wire thru the walls of my house.

Worked great for a couple months, and then it stopped :(

Worked well while it worked but died after just a few uses. At least it was cheap.

We were quickly addicted to our Krups Panini Maker and used it at least daily for 2-3 months until it died. We didn't do anything harmful to it, just plugged it in one day, and there was no heat and the indicator lights failed to come on. We took it to the nearest Krups customer service center some 50 miles away. They replaced a "thermo fuse". We were thrilled to pick it up after a couple of weeks and bring the Krups back home so we could enjoy some more great sandwiches. Unfortunately it died again a little over a month later. Now I'm hoping that Krups will refund our money.

We've always enjoyed Krups products, and enjoyed this one too -- when it worked.

It worked like a dream. Notice the tense i use. It bought it 2 months ago, and today it suddenly died on me. I've checked online for solutions and it all didn't work. Really disappointing that a product that seemed so well made fail so quickly.

It was great while it lasted. Nice design with fast, totally quiet operation but it fails miserably at its basic job as a reliable back up and storage device.

I purchased this 11 months ago for use as a back up for all my business files and realized the other day it was no longer working. I figured it was just the power cord but after purchasing a new cord it was still dead, dead, dead! While it's still under warranty I could get a replacement but the problem is the drive isn't encrypted so sending the drive back to LaCie for a replacement with all my client's info on it is unacceptable. Luckily for me, this is only one of three back up drives I use for exactly this reason. I'm eating the cost on this and will purchase a WD drive asap.

So, I had this and it was a beautiful piece of technology in my bedroom. I ran it when I needed to and would often keep it very low since I don't need loud music / audio. However one day it just stopped working, the receiver just died. Nothing I did would fix it (as recommended by users and others).

I bought one of these in 2009 and it just died.  It worked quite well until it didn't.
Back then it was $60 -- not the $175-200 everyone is trying to get out of you now.
Apparently the power supply board failing is the typical failure mode for this device and there's info on the web about DIY repair -- so I'm givin' that a try before I replace this.

Worked perfectly for 10 months and then completely died.
It was working one minute and the next the entire OS was gone.
Even though the cost is less than the cost of a new one I would expect it to last longer than this.
If I had bought a new one at least it would have still been under the one year warranty period.
I recommend either buy new or get an extended warranty.

I thought this was great because it was all we needed for our audio set-up. I bought it in January, installed it a few weeks later and less than five months later, it no longer works. All the other electronics that it shares an electric strip with work fine. It unexplicably stopped working. Its very frustrating.
