Keurig Elite Coffee Maker - Leaks, floods, spurts out water - since first week!

What an expensive piece of crap! And no wonder the checkout girl at the WalMart kept trying to push the extended warranty and replacement package. I thought, "Now why would I need that?!
As popular as these machines are, surely they are reliable." What a joke. I barely had the thing out of the box and in use, when I saw water sprinkling out of the mounting and tinkling down into my coffee. It didn't happen every time...at first.
I haven't had it for more than a month. The last time I used it, hot water - no coffee - came spurting and flooding out of the top and all over the countertop. Very little liquid made it into the cup and all I had was a big mess. I'm taking this baby back and hoping they give me no grief at customer service.

Now, visiting my local butcher (Wally’s Quality Meats on Sheridan near 112th) is part of my routine, if not weekly, at least monthly.
It’s a nice metaphor for my evolution as a foodie, but more than that, it says something about the current food movement in general that I have a local butcher to visit in this suburban jungle—not to mention Herb’s Meats in Broomfield or the aptly named Your Butcher Frank in Longmont. That shops like this can not only exist, but thrive, speaks to the desire consumers have to get back to their culinary roots.
And it isn’t just butchers making a comeback. Specialty shops are popping up here and there, filling the little niches and needs we didn’t know we were lacking. Cured in Boulder is a little foodie paradise with a case full of cheeses and cured meats and a well-curated wine room in the back. Or, you can visit Cheese Importers in Longmont and tour its incredible, warehouse-sized walk-in refrigerator case for a crash course in cheese appreciation.

i started making sure i close the lid tight and it is working fine now.......go firgure.....
