The carafe of coffee, though not in use but clean, rinsed and dried this morning, imploded tonight, all alone in a big boom ... and broken glass all over the kitchen where fortunately there n ' there was nobody at the time of implosion! Our coffee is almost new (available at Christmas) and apparently this is a recurring problem at Melitta (see other reviews of similar models). The origin China puts me on track but still, I thought that this brand was renowned for its reliability ... incorrectly so.
