A:Answer At the time I purchased mine, (6 months ago) people said there were no replacement karafes. (You could check at the Best buy store in case someone returned a machine but the karafe was still intact.) Reviewers mentioned that it was a good idea to buy the replacement plan when buying this Brim coffee pot, which is a good thing I did. My previous Brim coffeemaker stopped making the individual cups 3 months after I purchased it (regular side still worked). Then they replaced it, and the carafe was broken. So, it is a really good idea to get the replacement plan on a coffee maker. Most of them break down after a short time. I still really like this coffee pot though.
