I am bummed
The Mr Coffee coffee maker was brewing rather slowly lately. So, I decided that it was time for a internal cleaning. Got my cleaning solution out (acid) and run it through the brewing process 3 times to get rid of the lime & calcium build up. Seems that wasn't a good thing to do. The heating element loop in the bottom developed a leak. Now my $25.00 coffee maker is junk only after 20 months of service.......

Well Roland all I have to say is don't fall victim to the keurig coffee maker craze. My wife's aunt got us one and I mistakenly got rid of the old fashioned one. Big mistake. Just not a fan of how it brews and doesn't seem to ever get the coffee hot enough. Maybe I'm doing something wrong but I'm also a big Dunkin Donuts guy and just say no to Starbucks.
Lesson learned I guess, no more cleaning!

$25 bucks for 20 months of use isn't to bad, everything should have that return on investment.

Actually, the model that went bad is still made. I bought the same exact thing again.

 I use to buy Bunn coffee makers, Much higher priced but they only last 5 yrs. The cost per year was higher. Went back to the cheapies. Run'em till they quit, throw it away, and buy a new one.

Perc coffee is the best. Or cowboy coffee. Stay up for hours on end. My stepmother makes Turkish coffee, you chew all of that. The Mr Coffe my mom bought in 1982 lasted nearly 20 yrs, the element that kept coffee warm quit.

Roland, you sound like one of the guys that buy the big box store lawn tractors and are po'd after they crap out in a few years.
+1 on what Jeff uses. It's cheap and seems to do a pretty good job.

+2 on Jeff's suggestion every 6 mos. as part of a preventative maintenance plan. I take care of my mom's Bunn coffee maker and it is on 15+ years. Only needed to replace that gasket set once and Bunn sent me a free replacement set for it.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
