Yes, ours have two lids also--one for brewing with a hole in it, but you can't serve from it. The other is a lid with no hole or lever to facilitate pouring.


I forgot to mention the other thing that drives me nuts, but maybe yours doesn't do this--you have to turn it off manually. If you don't, the "on" light will switch off, but the machine won't. So later on, when you put water in and fill the coffee container, it will start brewing! (I always set it up the night before.)


It's been a learning experience for sure!
