My latest and probably last Bunn purchase | 5/19/13

1

My mother used Bunns for as long as I can remember and I've used them since I've been on my own. My previous Bunn had started leaking water and coffee from under the heating unit so my husband bought this one. You CANNOT pour a cup of coffee without it running all over the countertops...not drips but huge puddles! Honest to goodness, a $100+ coffeemaker and you can't design a carafe that doesn't spill everywhere? Yes, it's clean, and it's been doing it since we got it. I am ready to go back to waiting 5-7 min. for my coffee to run through with a traditional maker that costs $25. My older Bunn makers would last 8-10 years but the leaky one only lasted about 3, and this new one will likely be replaced long before it breaks because I'm tired of pools of coffee on my countertops.

From what I'm seeing online, this is a problem with several models and has been going on for a few years.

when you think of bunn you think of quality , not with the velocity. i had to return this coffee maker twice after it stopped workng and now that this has worked for a year i feel lucky . but i can only pour at 45deg because the thermus pot drips all over the counter . my krups worked for years and still dose. i will not get much more coffee out of this maker. stay away...

I have owned a couple different models before I purchased this one but it has been a while since I owned a Bunn. I thought that maybe they would have fixed the carafe by now. You cannot pour coffee out of the carafe without spilling coffee without pouring extremely slow. I also find that the temperature is too low for this coffee pot. I have to heat up my fresh brewed coffee in the microwave before I drink it.

Don't think I will buy another one... I like how fast it brews but the other issues are not worth it.

Love My Bunn | 3/10/13

I owned a commercial grade Bunn pot for years, but with our kitchen remodel, I found I no longer had a spot where the large unit would fit and make sense. I tried other brands and went through 4 pots in about 2 years. (The last one leaked two days out of the box!) I found this model at a local department store and bought it. The quality is so much better than other popular brands (porcelain warming plate, for example) and the coffee it makes is smooth and HOT! And, the fact that I have a pot of coffee in three minutes is a bonus. Thank you, Bunn!
