Has anyone had this for 6 or more months and not had it break or spring a leak?

I've had the hose little over 30 days. So far, no break or has it spring a leak. I don't know the answer for more than 6 or more months.

Mine sprung a leak the third time I used it. I emailed them and they gave me a full refund without the need to return it. Hope this helps.

Mine would also leak sometimes for no reason. It would stop leaking even though I did nothing to it. I never replaced it

I have it for about a 4 years and no leak so ever. It's very durable and well made. I use it in the chair, too, in the bed - no problems.

I've had mine several months now and use it almost daily. Never had any problem with it leaking.

I have had mine for maybe 4-5 months and have had no problems and I am a heavy tea drinker and fill it at least twice a day. One thing I would suggest is to only use distilled water. I had a Black & Decker which lasted barely two years and started to leak and I was using tap water. The Melitta is much heavier and well built. Also try not to use up all the water so that it is heating itself. That will damage it.

Haven't had any issues. We've had it about 6 months and have used more than a dozen times without any problems. Sorry.

Mine broke after about 6 months. Not sure if I will buy another. The pump doesn't last long

For me it has fallen apart. After a couple of months, it began leaking profusely. Now the long shaft has become detached from the handle. It's utterly nonfunctional now.I've had mine for 11 months. I used it lightly, roughly for half a summer. I'm very disappointed. It did work well when it was brand new.

No. I've had it since May, 2015 and it has sprung three leaks along the seam. These weren't punctures, so the failure was due to structural issues.

I have had mine for a few weeks now. I love mine it has not leaked a drop. You have to turn the water tank upside down to fill. There is a big opening that you have to turn the plastic opening to put water in. There is a rubber seal on it. I am sure that keeps it from leaking with water in the tank. It is hard to turn. I have had 2 small pegs on the in side of the tank brake off and it still has not leaked. I would recommend this unit for everyone.

You bet it's defective, Our 1st one we have had a year, we have had the 2nd one 7 months, neither on leak so if you can I'd exchange it.

I have two of them and neither leak. I have had one for a year and clean it monthly and the other about 3 months now. No leaks from either one.

I bought this over a year ago which was a replacement of the same model. I haven't had a problem with it leaking. If I'm pouring too fast it will drip. Other than that it's been great!

No it hasn't. The only time it has leaked was when one of the spritzers came off. I even dropped one and it was fine. However, I didn't drop it very far.

mine hasn't leaked so far, and I've washed it quite a few times. some of the reviews say that after long use that it begins to leak, at least when new it doesn't leak. I leave it in my backpack with my school supplies and it never leaks.

I have had them for 6 months. No leaks other than a drop that may be there after pumping that you don't wipe off.
