Two Hamilton Beach 10 cup coffe makers in a row

I have had two Hamilton Beach 10 cup coffe makers in a row. The model I have is the 10 Cup Brew Station. I absolutely love this coffee pot.
All my other coffee pots burn the heater out in less than a year so tried this model. A couple of my friends had them and recommended them.
We have a problem though. Our family makes coffee 2-3 times a day. When this coffee maker gets to be 3-6 months old, you will start to see dark brown coffee liquid all over your kitchen counter. That happened to the 1st one after only 2 and 1 1/2 months... Got a new one because I liked the coffeemaker so much... I got the same model however the same problem is happening again. The cause has been traced to the seal on the coffee carrying bucket.
It leaks down into the machine and all over the bottom of coffemaker. If there is any coffee in the coffee basket for a couple of hours it starts to leak all over the counter and onto the floor. I've tried to tighten the screws in the bottom of the basket but with no success. Hopefully I will be able to buy a couple of seals and replace them. If not I won't be able to keep buying new coffee pots every few months.
