Santa had it in for me…
First, a sculpting tutorial DVD I got for Christmas was blank (manufacturer error, seller is giving us the same tutorial on VHS and another tutorial on DVD to replace it), now my Home Cafe coffee maker is defective.
It leaked, a lot, from somewhere inside. From the very start, when I did the pre-brewing prepping by just sending plain water through it. A nice big puddle of water underneath.
The second try, with a coffee pod in place, not only did it leak again, but the brewing cycle got stuck “on”. Its cancel button ceased to function, and I had to unplug the thing to shut it off. I had chosen the 9 oz setting. It nearly overflowed a 16 oz cup since it was stuck.
Oh goodie. I called their customer service center and described the scenario. I was instructed to cut its cord about 6” from the plug (because there is a little piece of paper/tape toward the end with the serial nbr on it), and mail it in, and they’d ship me a new one.
It felt weird cutting the cord on an appliance. But, I guess it’s easier than shipping the whole thing to them.
Speaking of which… I suppose I should head on over to the post office this afternoon and get it sent off. I’m not even sure how long it will be before I get a replacement, since I forgot to ask. Whoops.
