Mr. Coffee's CJX21-CP 12 cup programmable coffee maker, If it dosen't work, bang it., May 28, 2010
This review is from: Mr. Coffee CJX21CP 12-Cup Programmable Coffeemaker, Black (Kitchen)
My wife bought a Mr. Coffee 12-Cup Programmable Coffee Maker with Water Filtration, and after a couple of weeks this model stopped brewing coffee. I'm guessing there must be some kind of check valve that was sticking because, you know, as a last resort hit it. Banging it got it working again. Every 5 or 6 brews it doesn't work, bang it.
It is probably going back to Costco.
I'm guessing this is a known problem?

Short Service -- Throwaway Item, March 31, 2011
This review is from: Mr. Coffee CJX21CP 12-Cup Programmable Coffeemaker, Black (Kitchen)
This unit was obviously perfectly engineered -- it lasted exactly sixteen days past the expiration of the one-year warranty. When it failed to heat up, I knew that I had been had by 'ol Mr. Coffee for a second time... this machine's predecessor had expired at 14 months. I had hoped that the earlier failure was just a fluke, so I took a chance and bought another one. Silly mistake. There will not be a third. Out of morbid curiosity, I took it apart and performed an autopsy. I had initially hoped the problem was one of the two cheap thermal fuses inside, but it turned out that the heating element had burned out, so the whole thing went into the trash. It would appear that the Sunbeam folks who make these lovely things have cracked the code on building them to last precisely long enough to squeak past the warranty....similar to a Kleenex. They will not get another penny of my hard earned money.

Had to have another after 4 years!!!!!!!!!!!, October 5, 2010
This review is from: Mr. Coffee CJX21CP 12-Cup Programmable Coffeemaker, Black (Kitchen)
I'm reading all of these reviews and it makes me chuckle. I bought my first one 3 - 4 years ago and it served us well for that time. 2 - 3 pots per day, it had a lot of use. I do miss the back light, but I never really used it to program the night before anyway.
Someone said the decanter drips.....well lift the lid a bit and it won't.
Someone said theirs stopped brewing - defective?? within warranty, return it / exchange it. Had it for a while?? Clean it - that is why there is a cleaning function.
I purchased from the Marketplace for my most recent unit - got a great deal and it brews like a charm - better than Starbucks!! -- I love the choice of brew - we always go for the stronger using fresh ground French Roast or Sumatra. -- Love it Love IT!!
