Why is my new coffee maker leaking water?

Honestly - I've got this new coffee maker from Amazon and it's been leaking water all over my counter every time I brew a pot! It's so frustrating because I was really excited about it! I make sure to fill it to the right level and clean it after each use, but the problem persists, maybe it's a seal issue or something.

Leaking coffee makers are the worst and right? Mine did that too right out of the box. Turned out the filter basket wasn't inserted properly, and water was bypassing it.

Double-check that; push it down firmly. Or maybe the rubber gasket around the water inlet is loose; gently press it back into place if it's popped out. Fixed mine in a jiffy. Yeah, and if it's still happening, could be a manufacturing defect, might wanna contact support.

Leaking in a new coffee maker often stems from a faulty seal or brew basket component. For a quick fix compatible with many models like Hamilton Beach and Mr. Coffee, try the coffee maker basket replacement, which provides two spring-loaded stoppers to prevent water overflow.
