Title: Awesome!!
Review: This coffee maker is perfect for me. I brew a pot of coffee and take the coffee pot to my desk and the coffee stays hot for a long time in the thermal container. I would recommend this product 100%.

Title: Nice Surprise
Review: I would like to start with this is my third coffee maker in less than 6 months. However, this one I really hopes can last longer because I really love it. When I first set up the system I was concerned because the bottom is plastic and didn't have a heating plate. Upon further inspection, I realized that it does not need a hot plate because the croft is thermal and keeps the coffee warm for you. The process of filling the tank was different. Leave the machine off and unplugged. You have to pour water into the coffee maker 2 or 3 times spacing out 4 minutes till the pot has water in the croft. So to make sure I am explaining myself correctly is that you pour a coffee pot worth of water into the machine. Place the coffee pot in its slot and close the lid where you pour the water into the machine. If you close that lid then you are going to allow the coffee or water to start flowing and can make a mess. Then after 4 minutes have passed get the pot to rinse it out and refill for round 2. I kept this process up until I had a full croft. The reason you do this is to fill the water tanks. When the tanks are filled plug in the coffee maker and turn on the machine. You have to wait 15 min for the water to warm up. When the water is hot and ready to use and fill the croft to your desired amount. Remember when you finish pouring cold water in do not close the lid because it will start brewing hot coffee. FYI, the cold water goes to the bottom of the tank and pushes out the hot water because heat rises. Oh and use the 4inch tall filters because otherwise, you are going to have grains of coffee a be unsatisfied with the coffee. maker.I was so excited when the morning came and I was making my first cup of coffee with my new mug :). The coffee began to pour and I was so excited because my cousin said Bunn is the best and I believe him! Watching the coffee drip was exciting for me because I am so picky about my coffee. I will drink it but I like my coffee hot and do not have that burnt taste of the coffee. I am watching and waiting for the last drop to drop so I can taste the coffee plus I had been without a coffee maker for over a week. I couldn't wait for that first cup of coffee to test. I poured into my cute mug and it didn't splash and it poured smoothly. So far so good. I sat down and had to wait a few minutes for my coffee to cool off. The wait for the coffee was worth it. I love coffee and I have not had a decent cup in a very long time. The coffee was rich and tasted so good I should have listened to my cousin years ago but I am stubborn. The second cup is just as good. The coffee didn't taste burnt and I was so happy. The reason it didn't taste burnt is that the croft is basically a thermos and that is how the coffee stays hot. I accidentally forgot to clean out the pot until the next day and I was so impressed that the coffee was still a bit warm. For me, I was impressed with the length of time the croft keeps the coffee warm. I have also never spent so much money on a coffee maker but I did and I am so grateful I did because the coffee is perfect and the coffee doesn't taste burnt after 30 min. I cannot express how good the coffee is and how well it keeps the coffee hot. This is the best coffee maker I have ever had and I cannot brag about it enough. I have only got to use it twice and omg I think I am spoiled. It is worth the money of not having burnt coffee. So yummy! Remember tall filters or you will have issues. It comes with some.

Title: Excellent But Not Quite Perfect (Update 2024)
Review: (Update 2024)I am raising my review to 5 stars. After six years of use, this coffee maker has proven to be great! It still makes piping hot coffee in record time. It still looks and works practically as good as new. See below some of my suggestions. They all still apply, but the little rubber stopper in the lid is still there and working fine! My daughter loves this coffee maker so much that she purchased one. Shortly thereafter, they moved to another state with their nearly new Bunn, still under warranty. When they arrived at their new home and plugged it in it didn't work. I wondered if they forgot to fill it up with water but they swore they did not forget! Still it didn't work. They contacted Bunn and were sent a brand new coffee maker! That's customer service! The new one works great. So I am sold.These things have risen in price exponentially thanks to our wonderful government, imo. But I still recommend this to anyone who wants a good coffee maker that is well made, easy to use and makes excellent coffee. Maybe I should become a dealer! 🙂 If you need a good coffee maker without a lot of bells and whistles but one that makes good coffee FAST and is covered by good customer service, you won't be disappointed! 5 stars! (End of update)============================I have had this coffee maker for over a year now and am overall very pleased with it. It consistently makes good coffee quickly and piping hot. My family makes several pots a day, so I feel that I have used the machine as much as most people would in two or three years and it is still going strong. At the price, I would expect it to last at least five years or more. We'll see how that works out.The only reason I gave it a four star rating rather than a five star rating is because I feel that Bunn still needs to do some engineering upgrades. I make these suggestions while realizing that there are some limitations due to the fact that the machine pre-heats the water. But just throwing out some ideas from the consumer's point of view that some bright engineers might tackle and that some marketing managers might consider as selling points. Here are this layman's suggestions (slight complaints):1. I like the on/off switch, but I feel that it is ridiculous that you can burn the coffee maker up if you plug it up without filling it with water first. I did not make that mistake and Bunn gives a warning, but it would still be VERY easy to do. There should be an automatic power shut-off that would prevent this automatically if you plug it up empty! Be warned!2. The coffee carafe sometimes drips down the side and from the bottom when pouring. This is a common problem with may coffee pots, and I do not know the solution. Obviously, pouring too fast will cause this; but it also sometimes happens no matter how slowly you pour the coffee. At other times, it pours perfectly. Not really sure what to suggest on this one.3. I really like the design of the stainless steel carafe. It keeps coffee hot a long time, is easy to clean and only has two parts .... or is it three? While washing the lid one day, I discovered that there is a tiny rubber "stopper" or whatever in the center of the lid that will easily come out! I almost didn't notice it and it could easily have been lost. This needs to be changed. I always worry that this little rubber part will get lost by mistake. I think the fact that this will come off the lid so easily when hand washing is crazy!4. The only other suggestion I have is that it would be very nice if this machine had a temporary flow-stop so that you could pour a cup of coffee while it is still making (dripping). This is a real picky suggestion since it only takes a few minutes to make a full pot. But the final few drips seem to take a long time to stop and you will make a small mess if you don't wait. It would be great it you could start pouring coffee when the main flow finishes and then place the pot back to catch the last few drips. Very picky and just a consumer wish list. This is not a real problem, but I always wish the drips would finish! :-)Overall, I would highly recommend this coffee maker. It has many great features that Bunn will point out in their advertising. It works as advertised for me. These comments should be taken just as a few fairly picky suggestions to make this unit even better. If Bunn will introduce some of these suggestions into the next model and send me a free one to test, I'll review it fairly and thoroughly!If you drink coffee by the pot and you need a coffee maker, I can highly recommend this one. I am a satisfied customer so far after over a year and a lot of coffee.

Title: Very nice.
Review: This is just like my old one that I needed to replace. I bought the old one in 2001 and it has served me well. I did have to replace the heating element in it a couple times but that was no big deal. You can find them easily enough and they're very inexpensive. I have been using this new one for a few weeks now and so far so good. I just hope it lasts 20 something years like the other one.

Title: Not a good "TRACK" record
Review: After 2 weeks of use I've had a few misfires. 1st I tried to make a strong brew, I ground my beans finer than usual and used the same amount of grounds. This resulted in the filter portion getting clogged and overflowing. I assumed this happened because the water couldn't flow through the finer grind fast enough? Fun fact, once this machine starts brewing, there is no way to stop it, even if coffee grounds and pouring out all over your counter. Ok, lesson learned. I've switched back to a coarse grind and haven't had that issue again.2nd, and I feel like this is a design flaw, when sliding the filter portion onto its track, there is no friction. Twice now I've dropped the filter portion after thinking it was slotted onto the track properly. Since then, I put a small paperclip on the end of each track so I can feel that each side is seating properly. This could be remedied easily by decreasing the size of the track or just adding a small "bump" of plastic at the beginning of the track to create some friction.

Review: We bought this Home Brewer to replace an old 90's Bunn commercial brewer that finally started leaking and then the element burned out. We are very happy because it brews in 3 minutes (just 30 seconds longer than our old commercial brewer). I think this Speed Brew Home Brewer is very similar to the commercial version, but in plastic and doesn't have the metal cover over the tank, but this has the convenient brew pin on the lid, so we don't have to rush to get the pot under in time, as our commercial brew was very instant and we would sometimes loose a bit of coffee on the element. The decanter does indeed keep coffee hot for 2 hours like it says, but I think it's still hot enough after 4 hours sitting.

Review: By far, the best coffee maker I have bought. It is well-built and gimmick free. At first it seemed odd that it keeps a reservoir of water ready for brewing, even though it is only used once daily to make a pot of coffee. So I wrote BUNN to ask if we should turn it off for the day, and they replied within hours (surprise!) and suggested I leave it on, and that it is what it is meant to do. So why have a programmable timer/clock/turn off time when it brews a pot of coffee in 4 minutes? And, the coffee stays very hot for over an hour in the thermos pot. It needs regular ground coffee, not fine, and BUNN filtres (they are taller than the standard basket filtres). If you are only brewing one or two cups, the standard basket filtre can work. Yes, this coffee maker is a bit expensive, but worth every cent.

Review: So far I'm enjoying great coffee. I love having the thermal carafe instead of a heated element so my coffee stays warm for hours and doesn't burn away to nothing. the coffee maker, when brewing, is very quiet so when I'm making a pot early in the morning I don't wake anyone up.The only challenge is that it is designed for a medium grind and the documentation (which is well written) indicates that a separate piece can be purchased to adjust the water flow. Tim's only comes in fine grind so I might have to get the attachment. In spite of that it still makes good coffee consistently saving me time and money from having to head down to Tim's each morning and wait in line.

Review: Purchased this for my parents, as their previous one stopped working. Absolutely love it! Coffee is made quickly, but doesn’t taste “burnt” like a lot of the cheaper coffee makers.Well worth the $$!
