Bought one of these from Woot and gave it as a Christmas gift. Spent about 2 hours trying things, reading support stuff on the internet, trying new things, and finally giving up. First, the Gevalia Coffee Pod Brewer wouldn't prime as the instructions said. Hints from other buyers said it needed to be reprimed 15-20 times before it actually started to pump water. Once that got going, it took about 25 cups worth before it would output clean, clear water. It seems that the culprit responsible for both problems is too much grease in the tubes during assembly. I really hope it's a food-grade grease or oil. As we were starting to get clear water out of the machine, it decided to quit metering the water. It doesn't matter which setting is chosen, the 6, 8, or 12-oz size, the machine will run through the entire reservoir of water and try to keep going. While furiously pumping water it seems the pump itself moves more water than the rest of the machine can handle as water leaks from base of the machine and runs all over the counter and onto the floor. What's most surprising to me about this is that other buyers describe the exact same issues with the Gevalia Coffee Pod machines they bought. I'd think it has got to be a crazy isolated incident with all the problems in one unit, but no! Lots of buyers on the Woot forums have these issues. We've boxed this machine up and have ordered a Senseo machine. I sincerely hope it's a better product, and I hope I can get a refund on the Gevalia.

My first Gevalia pod coffee maker was wonderful. We purchased the Senseo pods at our local store and enjoyed fabulous coffee for three years. Then one day, it just quit working. Pod coffee makers are hard to find now. We tried the Hamilton Beach brew station to disappointment, another carafe style, then I found this one pod maker from an old reliable and I jumped on it.Talk about messing up a good design. The pod release is an odd little dial that sticks, the entire and very large pod holder portion comes off and drips all over everywhere while you change pods, then you have to slide your tissue paper pod horizontally into position risking catastrophic rips. Of course, the dial again sticks until you hopefully get it locked into position. And on the many occasions you don't, this coffee maker will make coffee flavored hot water instead of the coffee one should be reasonably able to expect.Apparently, pod brewing is going the way of the dodo. I have spent enough money trying to replace my previous pod brewer that I could have bought Starbucks everyday for a year, and it looks like I'll be spending more to find a decent single serving machine. Off to compare Tassimo and Keurig...wish me luck.

I owned this same model 5 years ago, I got it with a gevalia membership. I liked it because I could make a quick cup of coffee but it started leaking after a year. I contacted gevalia and asked if they would replace the coffee maker because I had a bunch of pods to use still. They said no so I canceled my membershop and threw the coffee maker away.I saw this on Woot yesterday for only $9 + $5 shipping. [...] I decided to give it another go, without the expensive membership.$66 is a rip off and I hope nobody orders it from here.
