I've seen the reviews of "leaks everywhere". Has this issue been addressed or is there a satisfactory work around to prevent leaking?

I didn't use this product much. Found the hole was too small to add oil and you couldn't see when it was getting empty. Have a clear glass one now.

Mine does not leak at all and we are very happy with the product. There is always one little drop at the tip after I use it and I promptly just wipe it off.

I prevented mine from leaking by putting rubber bands around the area that was leaking and it stopped the leak.

I did have one leak after the warranty was out, but that was due to something on the floor that I missed. At any rate, it was very easy to fix with the self adhesive patches that come with it. I've had it for about a year now I think and I haven't had an issue since.

I have the same issue and don't have a solution yet (other than cleaning up the leaked water each day). Does anyone have a solution?

I have never had problems with a leak and have been using mine daily in the winter for a number of years. Sounds like a defect.

Mine also started to leak. I sent it in for repairs and it has worked fine without any leaks since.

Hi Vikas, i had that same problem in the beginning, I changed the hose and it still happened but it wasnt drastic, i tightened the hose and since its been fine with no problems. Not sure where it is leaking from but check the hose connections, I hope this helps.

No.. I have had my for a long while now.. and it never leaked.. you may want to call the company.. it sounds like you left something off while you were installing it.

I had the same problem and I don't know if it was a coincidence or not but after I gave it a good cleaning it stopped. Now maybe you can tell me how to stop it from leaking? It constantly drips and if I don't forget to watch it I end up with water all over my counter.

Hi Sharon,Mine still not leaking after reworked as described by me. Really is a nice design but a minimum care from Black & Decker with us, "victims" of defective products like this one, is desirable.Cheers,Paulo

Hi Kate - well it seems that only us purchasers will accept that this product has a problem with the leaking - krups it seems don't - I've emailed them. I am now about to send my THIRD Circolo back (purchased this time through Co-op online just to make sure it was not a 'faulty batch' that Amazon had in stock. Seems that it was not. Anyhows, going to chose another style now - don't want to because I love the modern style of the Circolo but it seems to me that until Krups acknowledge that there is a problem they won't actually sort it out!

So far ours is not leaking. That said it was only installed 2 months ago. Thanks for the heads up about this potential issue. I'll keep an eye on it and update my review if it becomes a problem.

Mine also leaked. I contacted Hamilton Beach and returned it. Perhaps you'll need to do the same.

I have had 2 of these over the past 3 years - and never had a leak. Check and make sure the water container is fitted properly on the unit. Maybe yours is defective.

That's NOT good. My system has never leaked. You should contact the manufacturer.

I've never had a problem with mine--I've had it two years and it still works great. I'm sorry yours is leaking. Have you contacted the manufacturer?

Hello Vikas, firstly you need to determine the source of the leak. It is most likely from one of the connections. Try to isolate which one. If that is the case you can easily fix it yourself by checking each one and making sure that they are tight. If it is coming from the body of the unit then you should return it because that would mean that the product is defective. The instructions aren't great. I would gladly send you a picture of the unit already connected so that you could see it more easily but I don't think there is a way of attaching a picture to my answer. Best of luck.

I have had this problem 3 times. Returned twice, third time found a fix online: 1) check the gasket, as mentioned. you may need to flip it 2) use pliers or a vice grips to "overtighten" it. If you follow the instructions and tighten by hand, you will have a problem with the metal fitting leaking. This is technically a defect, but it can be corrected very easily.
