I guess I got lucky with my coffee maker. It has worked perfectly for the last 2 years, I just recently broke the carafe & am not liking that I can not find an easy replacement. I have the 4281. I’d be happy to buy one here! I don’t want to toss out the machine…

Boy can I relate to most of these complaints! My carafe pours more coffee on to the counter top then it does the cup. No help from the manufacturer. No replacement available. The coffee maker was a gift. Is only almost a year old. Went to Tuesday Morning, Target. No luck. Eventhough the coffee is pretty good, I will never recommend this or any other Oster product to anyone!

I also love this coffee maker, mine has worked perfectly for 2 years,,I never had compliments on my coffee before but this one did it,.Alas,now water pours out the bottom and is useless,,It seems I have a spare carafe now if anyone needs it.Can’t seem to find anything like it..I don’t like companies that don’t recognize a good thing when they have it..And then make newer products not as good…

Bought this maker about a year ago , today it will start tp perk and than shuts off immediately while omitting a beeping sound . No repair facility show for PEI Canada. Will try another make and see if i can’t get more than a year out of it.

Maureen – I’m in the same boat. I called Oster to get a replacement carafe and they have absolutely none – even checked the warehouse. The coffeemaker is off of the market. They instead sent me a Mr. Coffee, which I hate. I wish I could find dependable coffeemaker manufacturer that has a reputation for a great coffeemaker, retains spare parts and stands behind their product. Gone are the days and the consumer are left behind.

I need the manual coffee Oster 4281 because it did not come in the box when purchased. Can someone help me?
