Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Proctor Silex 12-Cup Coffeemaker - White (43531)
Customer Review: Fatal flaw
Summary: 1 Stars
I wanted a simple 12-cup coffee maker with no bells and whistles. This appeared to fit the bill. When it arrived, the plastic filter cup turned out to be very flimsy, but the cost was so low and standards have deteriorated so much that I thought it would still be OK. After about 20 uses, however, the spring mechanism in the filter cup that opens the hole where the water filters through into the carafe bent out of shape, even though it had always been treated very gently. So the water can no longer escape the filter and overflows back into the machine and all over the kitchen counter. Spend a bit more money on a more sturdily-built coffee maker. Do not purchase this one or any similarly-priced one. Otherwise, you'll be purchasing a new machine monthly.
