I've not had any issues. If it's leaking underneath, there may be a crack. Also be sure to not over-fill the water tank. Additional information is in the user guide on page 14 (http://kitchen.manualsonline.com/manuals/mfg/melitta/mes2b.html?p=14 ) and addresses leaks. I hope this helps.

Also check the plate under the coffee cup. It is there to catch overflow from the cup. My pricey Keurig has the same thing under the mug but much larger. Be sure to clean out the little overflow under the mug because it can get moldy if you forget.

Ours does the same sometimes and generally indicates the tank hasn't been properly seated in the machine. Make sure to carefully place the tank when you fill it and that should reduce the problem. I know this is hard before having coffee so perhaps fill the tank the day before when your brain has already been caffienated.

No. You haven't done anything wrong. These devices are prone to leaking water. They are very cheaply made. You can either keep returning them hoping to land one that doesn't leak or you can simply place a kitchen towel underneath it. Hope that helps.

Do you completely remove the water reservoir when you fill it? Does it all leak out before or after you turn on the brewer? Is it snapped into place, or is there a gap where the water can come out?

I have had no problems with mine, and it gets a lot of use. I fill with water and fruit and put in fridge and kids and I use all the time- mine is good quality no leaking.

I had one that did the same thing that I finally had to throw away and buy a new one. Thankfully they don't cost to much. Anyway's just be sure the cap is screwed on tight and maybe pour out some of the nectar so there's not so much overflow. If it keeps leaking then it's just the cause of a bad feeder and you will have to buy a new one. I've had about 5 of them and I only had one that leaked bad. Goodluck!

Contact the company. Mine doesn't leak. Are you overfilling the water reservoir?This machine will not drip coffee if you pull the carafe out in the middle of brewing.

Mine did that too, at first. I found I did not have it seated properly. Once I had it fitted correctly it never leaked again.

My quess is that you didn't have the zipper part totally closed. Be sure to use the little white zipper aid to held close the bag and redo it. If it still leaks,you might have a small hole in your bag.

Did you try the 'Self Clean' - that might help with the white stuff. I'm not sure about the leaking, it shouldn't if it's new, but mine is relatively new and the spray is already not working correctly, so I am Very Dissapointed with Rowenta.

Yes. Nothing to worry about IMHO. Pretty normal for single cup makers. We just bought a Nespresso Pixie (yes we now have both CBTL and the Nespresso) and it took "leaks" a bit too. Assume that's why both machines have trays capable of holding some leakage.

Mine has been great it does not leak you might want to check and see if it came with a hole or if something happened to it after you got it

ours does not leak and the flexablity and extra length are nice...perhaps you received a faulty one

I had the same problem. After using a wrench to get the whole thing off, then used more tools to get it apart, it leaked like a sieve after I screwed it back on. I'd like to know the answer myself because I bought a new one.

I sent this coffee maker back..it leaks water or coffee all over..I read this in the comments and bought it anyway. They were right and I should have taken them seriously. Not having the coffee maker anymore I can't advise on the cup but I will warn u against buying it.. A word to the wise should be sufficient.

That is the design :) No leakage for me yet, but you have to make sure the seal is in properly (it comes out for easy cleaning) and I'm sure it would depend on what you put in there. Something really juicy may leak

I haven't had this problem. Have you tried tightening it to see if that helps? I remember at least one other reviewer had the same problem. Once he/she tightened it, it no longer leaked. Hope that helps

I've tried many pods and the only one I really like is melitta buzzworthy.Unfortunately after just 4 months my machine has starting leaking out of the bottom :-(

I have had this problem 3 times. Returned twice, third time found a fix online: 1) check the gasket, as mentioned. you may need to flip it 2) use pliers or a vice grips to "overtighten" it. If you follow the instructions and tighten by hand, you will have a problem with the metal fitting leaking. This is technically a defect, but it can be corrected very easily.

My bella is leaking making a mess into the base. Black smudge leaks into the cup. I'm ready to throw it out andwe've had it only about 6 weeks. Any help out there??
