Looking for recommendations on coffee makers. Preferably a drip coffee maker. I've been using a percolator for years and while it usually works fine, it doesn't always brew thoroughly if the water isn't cold enough.

I’m not dead yet, but my Cuisinart, “Mr. coffee”style coffee maker has been going for at least 15 years and parts are available still. All the electronics still work so I can program it to have coffee waiting for me in the morning. 

Here’s a link to a brand new one that looks exactly the same as my old one.

I have the version of this with the thermal carafe and the hopper that rests atop the maker with a built in burr grinder. Came to post it, because we've had it for 11 years with daily use and is still works like a champ. Like you said, parts are readily available, inexpensive, and it's been easy to replace the ones that needed it. If ours somehow broke irreparably I wouldn't hesitate to buy another the next day.

Edit: found the link
