Does the dispenser drip or leak at the top or down the sides and does it have a plastic gasket inside the top?

No! Not a drop, ever. The "spout" is somewhat square with a gripping top part that sort of pinches off the flow. No drippage. Yes, it has a rubber or plastic gasket inside, and a spare is included. I love this thing. Worth every penny. You get what you pay for. Details!!!

Mine doesn't leak a drop. Contact vendor or manufacturer, maybe cracked reservoir or defective seal somewhere?

I agree with Reggie A. It goes under the freezer section but have never had any issues with dripping. It's been a while since I bought this thing and it still works like new. Great purchase!

Mine has a glass spout and I haven't experienced any problems with leaking.

No it does not leak. It seems many people had that problem with the original carafe (myself included). Kitchenaid finally addressed the issue.

Yes but very slight leak, few drips. I put a piece of cardboard underneath and no problem. Works great no major complaints.

I have had no problem with it dripping. The only place it shows soil is where you press down when dispensing the soap with dirty hands. ( which, I guess, is fairly logical!). Easy to clean off when needed. I really enjoy this dispenser and have stopped buying the expensive Spa-type brands.

Mine does not drip from the handle either. The only thing that is somewhat annoying is that it dribbles from the spout when pouring the last of the coffee.

The dispenser dispenses hot and cold water only. The front opening has about 7 inches of clearance from spout tip to drip tray. If the container is taller, it may need to be held at an angle.

It's a type of plastic, and this is a WONDERFUL product! If you install the spout piece carefully, it does not leak. Because the device is not glass, it's not heavy either. One of my best product buys this year.

Neither. It is just a faucet adapter with an adjustable valve that allows you to lower the water flow to a steady drip. There is a stainless steel spout as shown in the picture and the rest is plastic tubing, the leak valve and the faucet adapter, which has a Y-junction and shutoff valves to allow you to still use a garden hose.

Mine leak's as well. My wife doesn't fill it to the top anymore and it doesn't leak then.

The spigot is plastic. I do worry about that but it works well and doesn't leak. It is the only negative about this beautiful beverage jar dispenser. The stand and lid are chromed metal.

Not when it is closed and not when it is sitting upright or when pouring, Overall, I'm really pleased with this product. The only time it drips down the front is when I'm filling it from the handle side. If you fill it from the spout side there is no drip.

The inside is metal with a teflon like coating, and the spout is just a hole in this bottom. The plastic lever sticking out is the one you push to get water to be released into your cup. Hope this helps.

I've not see any water leaking from the filter area. That said, I do believe that water does drip down through the filter... where do you see the water coming out of?
