Nice pot, lots of great features, but....

There's always the but. Our water is hard, we're talking concrete is softer. 25-28 grains of hardness hard. Fred Flintstone used this to make his tires hard.

I'd paid the original $200+ when it first came out. Within 3 days, the "add water" light would not go out. Calcium build-up locked the little metal float that senses the water level into the "add" position. Clean it out, back to working. In the 3rd week, the hot water faucet got plugged up. Open it up, clean it out (1" of calcium sludge in the bottom), back together. Within the first 6 months, I'd opened and cleaned it too many times to count. Eventually all the cleaning, opening and closing was too much for the unit and it started leaking.

If you have soft water, this is the best one you could own. Instant hot water, almost instantaneous coffee in the morning, 2 pots for lots of coffee when company shows up.....great pot at a now excellent price.

If you have hard water, steer clear to the cheaper throw away ones.

As an avid coffee drinker, when purchased this product I knew exactly what I was getting. My dad has a similar "Bunn" that is approximately 17 years old. The best feature is the 4 minute brew time. I am not a very patient person in the morning and never could remember to set the timer on my old coffee pot. I absolutely love the on/off switch for the burners. I did read all about it before purchasing though, so I already knew it wouldn't fit under my cabinets. All in all, I think this is everything I was looking for in a coffeemaker. Also, mine is refurb, never would have guessed though!!!!!

I purchased this coffee maker refurbished and it looks and works great. I timed making a pot of coffee and it makes it in four minutes and turns out great every time. The hot water spout is also a great feature for making a cup of tea or hot chocolate and not having to wait for the water to heat up. Also it comes with two pots and warmers which is a nice bonus compared to regular coffee makers. This unit looks nice in my kitchen and would also be nice in an office or break room. For the price you can't beat it.

I have used this machine daily for a year and a half with zero problems.

It is FAST, brews great coffee, is capable of making 24 cups of coffee in less than ten minutes.

A screaming bargain. One very happy customer.

This is an excellent coffee brewer and a excellent buy! Listen to the 5 star reviews. The burner does need to be turned on manually to heat the coffee while brewing or the coffee will not be as hot. Make hot choclate, tea, hot cereal with the instant hot water tap. I purchased this one about 8 months ago and we use and enjoy it daily. Great Buy!

This coffeemaker is absolutely the best. Luckily our kitchen layout accommodated the height of this coffeemaker. In four minutes you have a perfect brew of 12 cups of hot coffee. My husband and I have searched for a no drip carafe and we found it with this Waring Pro and the instant hot water dispenser is so handy for that cup of tea or hot chocolate! This coffeemaker got quite a workout over Thanksgiving holiday as we had 30 family members at our house. With both coffee pots going, we never ran out of coffee. I highly recommend this product and the price was right!

Ive had a bunn for years and have been very happy with it,,, the waring pro is the closest to a commercial maker Ive found..AAAAA+++

Dont waste your time on a review, I did and amazon wont post it, has this happened to you? If so search amazon feedback on google and PLEASE let them know that amazon is hiding bad reviews, the seller even tried to bribe me to change it, If you are reading this it will be a suprise. As for the coffee pot its OK, as for the seller, like I said he tried to bribe me for a better review, he must be kissing someone @ amazon cause it ain't here. Email me for a copy of the bribe. Keep this in mind when reading reviews.

We bought this for our small office, and I am very happy with it. The seller shipped very quickly. It appears to be brand new! Very well designed and easy to use. We have used it for a couple of weeks and it is chugging along like a champ! It has a hotwell that keeps one pot of water warm and ready to go! We brew 4-6 pots a day and it is very fast. No long waits as with our old coffeemaker.

NOW FOR THE REALLY IMPORTANT PART OF ANY COFFEEMAKER: IMO, It makes a very good cup of coffee. However, it uses the flat bottom filters instead of the cone style. I like my coffee strong, and find that you have to use more coffee in the flat filters than the cone filters to get a stronger pot. So I just scoop in an extra spoonful. But that is the only drawback to this pot.

BOTTOM LINE: Super deal for $65!! Sturdy and quick cup of coffee! I just need to use a bit more coffee to get the results I want.

Always been a Bunn lover, this is a BETTER coffee maker at 1/5th the price. VERY pleased.
