Coffee Maker Hell

So I decided to buy a Senseo Coffee Maker and went to WalMart to pick one up.

After getting home and opening the box I noticed a plastic and a metal widget inside the water reservoir. Well apparently these parts are important because I couldn't get the coffee maker to work.

I took it back to Walmart and got a replacement. On getting it home and unpacking I noticed the same issue - widgets - coffee maker wouldn't work. My wife called Senseo and found out that those loose widgets are the sensors for how much water is in the machine and that it can't be fixed by hand and that we need to return in again!!!

So Walmart had their chance, I got a refund, reckoning that maybethe palette was dropped or something.

I went to Bed Bath & Beyond and with my 20% coupon I got it cheaper than in WalMart. This one worked and I am now enjoying great tasting coffee!!!!!!
