Title: Well designed, thoughtful features, delicious coffee much better than older style autodrip makers
Review: There's a lot I like about this coffee maker. In short, it is EASY to use, brews DELICIOUS coffee and is actually pretty FAST considering how it works. This is a relatively unique coffee maker given all the options out there. It's a great design conceptually and practically. I feel it brews more similar to a manual style pour over than how most basic coffee makers work.So far, I have been using basic bottled drinking water from the gallon jugs from the grocery store (as opposed to tap, even filtered tap, because we have pretty hard water) and it works very well with the the drinking water. I'm using the stack of supplied Bunn filters that came with the coffee maker and ordered more Bunn filters for when those run out. I grind my coffee using a Flair Royal manual grinder on a "medium" setting (typically around a "7" within the second rotation from the zero point, for those familiar with how that manual grinder works) and the coffee is very balanced with great flavors and easy to drink, even black. It's not bitter at all.The controls are very easy. Once you have water poured and a filter with grounds in place, you just hit the brew button and wait about 10 minutes. After it heats the water at the top, you hear a single dull pop sound when the water valve opens, the brewing starts and within seconds you start to see hot coffee dripping into the carafe. The actual dripping down of the water through the grounds only takes a couple minutes. If you only brew to "4" cup line on the carafe (about 2 average sized mugs worth) it's usually done dripping in about 8 minutes total but the machine will continue to say "brewing" for a few minutes afterwards.Some things to be aware of:1. There's no auto-pause, so if you pull the carafe out while the coffee is dripping down then it will just keep dripping and go everywhere. So it's important to leave the carafe in place until the dripping has completed. Again, once it starts dripping you only need to wait a few minutes.2. The lid is designed to come off very easily when it is in the VERTICAL position. Many reviews seem to complain that the lid "comes off too easily", but I'm guessing what is happening is they're raising the lid by blindly pushing it down with their thumb unaware that the little nubs holding the lid on have flats on them for this exact purpose - to allow it to come off easy when veritical. When the lid is down, and even partially raised, it is effectively "locked" into the handle, or at least prevented from poping out. You can of course raise the lid all the way without it coming off, but if you push up or pull up on it in that position it WILL come out easily.3. Grind size matters. To get the best tasting cup of coffee, grind your coffee fresh to the correct size using a high quality grinder. If it's coming out bitter, it's likely that your grind is too fine.4. At the beginning, you need to pay attention when you're lining up the basket and sliding it in. If you don't catch the lip of the basket on the sides then you could potentially not realize it and drop it. But, once you get used to sliding the basket in it's not hard to do. There's no tactile indication that it's in place other than you just can't push it any further. But, if you slide it back 3/4" it could fall out. So just be careful that it's seated fully before you let go!Specific things I really like about it:1. The coffee tastes really great!2. The filter basket is easy to clean. There aren't super deep ridges in it like most auto drip makers have.3. Brew time is relatively quick. I think under 10 minutes for a couple mugs is great.4. The carafe pours flawlessly without dripping thanks to the unique lid design! The lid does look a bit odd at first but it really works amazingly well at preventing the drips.5. It's pretty quiet while brewing even when heating the water. Not a major thing but I still appreciate it.6. For the money I haven't seen anything that brews coffee this way and I think it's a winning design concept.I recommend buying this machine.

Title: Good bad ugly
Review: Restarters I have extremely low vision and Iâm using Siri to write this so sorry for any misspelled words or strange words. I purchased this and have now used it for three days the good is it simply excellent. I had no problems figuring out how do use it without even reading the directions getting it plugged in and making my first part of coffee. Overall I am very delighted with it the flavor of the coffee is wonderful itâs as good as any place youâre going to go the fact that it brings the water up the temperature before it starts spraying it on the coffee grounds is great also Iâve been making smaller pots like 4 cups and itâs might take a little better more time but it is simply better than using the pods you get a real rich full flavor. Also I purchased the non-filter basket that you can use in it and it fits perfectly and is wonderful for a very low price then you donât have to wrestle with filters. Bad is that itâs not really what I expected when I ordered stainless steel I thought I was going to get something pretty shiny that I might be able to see when light hits it instead stainless steel is very little on the product only on the front as far as what I can feel but most of the product is plastic practically the entire product is Bryce plastic not to heavy duty like you would see in a hotel the restaurant but I canât complain it works great. The ugly thing I found most disappointing is putting the lid onto the coffee carafe thereâs two tiny ears that fit into a slot on the handle because of some arthritis and not wanting to bust it I have not been able to attach the word to the coffee pot. I will have to inflict this upon a family member maybe but it seems that for such a critical part of the lead going onto the path if they would make it easier to attach or more sturdy I can just see one of those tiny ears breaking off and then the lid sliding around on the pot like it currently dies. This is not a dealbreaker and Iâm willing to deal with it as far as the coffee goes itâs excellent I am so happy with this purchase and wish I purchased it before I been using a $20 cheap coffee pot and thought it was OK but this is wonderful and the best. Bun means excellent and always has. Good luck with your part good luck putting the lid on the coffee carafe but Iâm sure youâll deal with it have a great day thanks for reading my review So after using this for about three weeks the biggest problem still be is the lid on the coffee pot itself if they just invest festive another $.50 delivered stop falling off the coffee pot it is extremely hard for me to attach and it stays attached for no more than 15 minutes before it falls off when you touch it or try to do anything with it they could have an excellent product here but they nearly need to look at the lid on the pot itâs just simply the weakest point a piece of junk

Title: Great coffee machine
Review: Makes a great pot of coffee. I just wish I could get a stainless steel pot for it. I will contact Ben and see if there was one that will fit. Itâs very easy to use straightforward. I gave up on another brand that I have replaced every year and a half to two years. Which cost me three times the amount of money. The only thing is I had to buy a coffee, bean grinder, but I do that every morning now anyway. So itâs good to go. I used to own a Bunn coffee maker years ago. I just donât understand why I changed.

Review: After 12 years of drinking exclusively French press coffee at home, we bought this machine in an effort to simplify our complex life. I thought I'd be trading off a rich cup of coffee for a lower quality but easier one. I was wrong. This machine not only simplifies life with its program ability but the coffee was actually beautifully rich and complex. I do not feel bad retiring my French press to the back shelf.Pros. Simple (I don't need a NASA command centre for a coffee machine). Programmable. Pours nice.Cons. It's a tad large on my counter. Only used once so far so TBD.

Review: Compre 2 de estas cafeteras porque creà que era una excelente marca, pero ambas arrojaron un error qué impedÃa qué el plato se quedara encendido para mantener caliente el café... Llame a soporte técnico de BUNN y ni siquiera conocÃan el modelo, nadie supo resolver el error, es frustrante qué una marca internacional no sepa darte una respuesta.

Review: este diseño no llena mis espectativas para una marca como Bunn. El canasto se sobre llena y no se filtra rapidamente causando una derrama de cafe sobre el mismo aparato. pasa muy seguido. no lo recomiendo.

Review: This is a very modern looking Coffee maker and it doesn't waste electricity like many other Bunn's do.It doesn't heat the water 24 hours a day. You do need to run a vinegar and water pot to clean it once a month or when ever the green plastic spray head starts pluging up. The head unscrews easily to get any of the calcium build up out of the head. Don't put the spray head back on until you have finish running the pot of vinegar water and another pot of water to rinse the reservoir. Make sure you put the basket and carafe back in place or you will have a wet mess ðI bought this one as a backup as nothing lasts for ever.Take care and enjoy your coffee,Jim T

Review: We are Bunn fans. Love the taste that only a Bunn coffee maker provides. Had the one that has a reservoir that keeps the water hot but unfortunately it broke down after more than a few years. Thought we'd give this one a try. We are loving it. It does take a few minutes longer to brew as this one does not have the reservoir. However I don't see that as a problem. It has been working great and the coffee tastes as good as it did with the former Bunn coffee maker. You can also set it so that you wake up to fresh brewed coffee. Nice perk!

Customers are also happy with the design. However, some customers have reported that it takes 20 minutes to brew, instead of 5. Opinions are mixed on the build quality.
