I bought this Bunn brewer to replace an old one that finally expired after very long service. I think the Bunn brewer is the best way to brew coffee. It is very fast and keeps the brewing water at the perfect temperature. I have two small issues with my new BX-W brewer. They made the coffee pot more of a cylinder with straight sides all the way to the top. (The old pot has sides that curve in towards the top.) When the pot is nearly full and you put it back on the warmer it often will slop a little coffee over the back side. The old one did not do this. I am sure it was done to make it look more stylish but it slops. Second minor problem is when the pot is placed on the warmer it does not center well. That means you have to play with it a bit to get the coffee stream from the filter to center on the hole in the cover. It is a minor annoyance but it could have been avoided. Other than that, the coffee is great. Even with it's flaws I would highly recommend it.

I have owned both old and new versions of the Bunn home coffee machine. I have gone through 3 of the home brewers in an office environment where they work 24 hrs. a day and are never subject to deliming or other maintenance .. other than normal washing.

At home I've owned Bunn home coffee machines for the last 20 years; I'm on my 5th one. Forget the Mr. Coffee and those digital-timer wonders that are ok, but just don't work that well.

I have noticed quality control issues with the newer models that are a little disturbing .. I don't like the straight design of the new coffee decanter ... the old onion-dome classic is what I really liked because the decanter just worked better .. balance with a full pot in hand, no spilling or sloushing problems .. and yes, it goes naturally back where it is supposed to go .. wish Bunn would get this right again and just give us the retro-classic machine!

Secondly, my older machines all lasted longer than the newer models .. which have problems with the lighted switch sometimes going out .. and the older machine was just better built .. even the switches (a very simple design) was superior to the cheap switches they now use .. and replacement is expensive for what you get.

Nothwithstanding these problems the Bunn home brewer makes excellent coffee and does it fast .. wish they'd get control of the quality issues and make replacement parts less expensive .. I recently lost that little sprayhead .. probably a 30 cent part that costs you $7 for shipping alone, c'mon Bunn .. as much as these machines go for new .. you should just give these away.

PS: the old decanter was much better .. I don't like the new decanter and don't care that it is made from Schott glass .. it feels too thin; and more importantly the styling is terrible.

Bunn coffee makers have it all over any other. It's instant coffee because the water is always hot and it tastes great!

Ever since replacing my 12 year old Bunn, I've had the feeling my new brewer didn't make coffee that was quite as good.

Today I was visiting a friend who, under the same circumstances, expressed the same sentiment. After some deliberation we decided the new machines may not heat the water to as high a temperature as the old ones.

I don't like the new pot either.

If you have an old Bunn that still works, keep it, or better yet, trade it to me.

(going to change my "3 stars" rating to a "two")

I have used Bunn for years and can't see me ever changing to another brand!

We bought this to replace a failed Cuisinart coffee maker (made in China). The Bunn product is well made simple to operate. Once you follow the clearly written instructions, it makes a full pot of great tasting perfect flavor coffee in approximately 3 minutes. If you do not plan on making coffee for the rest of the day then shut of the tank heater. This unit has tank that holds hot water. This product in white matches older and newer white appliances, plus it has a stainless steel cover over the tank. Buy this product and you won't be disappointed, but carefully read the instructions.

We recently had to replace our Bunn home coffee maker. After contacting Bunn & doing an online search, Amazon had the best price and the service was fantastic. We received exactly what we expected sooner than expected.

I love this coffee maker best coffee maker on the market this is my third one
in a little over 20 years love them all

After three years, our unit developed a problem with the lid. Bunn-O-Matic was very professional and made our exchange hassle-free!

Great product. This coffee pot is the best i have ever owned. It brews hotter then any of the other coffee makers I have owned. You a have full pot of coffee in 3 minutes. Fantastic !!!
