Brentwood TS-120 Coffee Maker

I recently purchased a Brentwood coffee maker style number TS 120. This coffee maker worked well the very first time I used it, and has never worked right since! It starts to brew a pot and then a quarter of the way through it just stops brewing. I like the design of the coffee maker and all but it doesn't seem to be living up to the Brentwood name if you ask me. I am not pleased with my purchase, even though it was a twenty dollar coffee maker I expected to get at least 6 months use out of it. I am not sure if you can do anything about this but I thought you ought be aware that this particular model does not seem to be very good.
