I purchased an OXO 9 Cup Coffee Maker and maintained it as recommended. I left it plugged in because it has a digital clock display. I returned home one day to find condensation in the water reservoir which was strange because I had not used the coffee maker that week and always left the top open after use to dry it out. The clock went out and base was hot to the touch, so clearly there was an issue and a potential for a fire. I unplugged it and have not used it since. The other two items plugged in to that outlet were working fine. I don’t want a replacement but I do want to warn others of the potential issues. I’m thankful this happened on a day where I got home in time to find this was happening and unplug the machine. I have a Mr. Coffee and a Cuisinart coffee maker that have lasted many years (20 for Mr. Coffee, over 10 for the Cuisinart). I don’t have an issue with a coffee maker just dying on me, but I do have an issue with it suddenly heating up so much that I can’t touch the base and have to worry about a potential house fire.
