Bunn is simply the best. March 4, 2010

After 5 years, our last Bunn was retired. We purchased this one to replace it and can't be happier. Some of the complaints I've seen on these reviews are ridiculous (high energy costs, coffee not warm, etc.). Don't know anyone who has ever had a problem with a Bunn. Best, quickest, tastiest coffee maker on the market. Enjoy!
 BUNN ain't what it used to be. March 3, 2010

I always had a Bunn coffee maker. My 5 yr old Bunn GR10 finally lost its ability to maintain a hot cup of coffee. The new NHBX 10 is the replacement. Bunn claims that the internal water temp is 200 degrees and is at the ideal level for perfect brewed coffee. I measured the water temp in the carafe and it was 180 degrees. The coffee is not hot enough. In hindsight, knowing what I know now, I would not buy this, as my coffee is not super hot and does not stay hot. If you want hot coffee, buy a commercial coffeemaker. Stay away from consumer grade coffee makers.

What needs said? If you know Bunn coffeemakers you don't need me to tell you about them. If you don't and you want to spend a little more on a coffeemaker and if you want a quick perfect cup of coffee then get one. You won't be sorry. One word of advice though, get the Bunn filters as well. They actually do make a difference. The water pumps out pretty quick when it brews and most of the filters I have tried cannot pass the water fast enough to keep the grinds from washing out of the basket and into your coffee. Not a problem with the Bunn branded filters.
The only coffee brewer that should be in your home! February 26, 2010

I roast my own coffee at home and this BUNN is the only coffee maker that has the honor of brewing my coffee. Sorry if I sound like a snob, but I drink my coffee black and the coffee just tastes better when brewed in a BUNN. All of my friends and family that come over absolutely love my coffee and actually drink it black when they normally load up with cream and sugar (calories and fat too!). So one could say if you are on a diet, then this is a must have!
No other coffee brewer heats the water as hot as this BUNN. Sure its more than that cheap $30 coffee maker at k mart, but there are also plenty of other coffee makers that are well over $100 and are no better than the $30 brewers - they just don't get hot enough. Also, like many so-called "12 cup brewers", the filter basket is not nearly big enough to fit 12 cups worth of coffee. If you are lucky, you can get 6-8 cups worth of coffee grounds. They should really be called: "Really expensive, extremely weak 12-cup coffee ruiner". At least that is not false advertising.
Technical Greatness:
- BUNN brewers also have a unique spray head that sprays water out in 5 streams to create the right amount of turbulence, rather than a slow drip like every other brewer.
- The water is heated in a stainless steel reservoir rather than toxic plastic tank.
- You pour the water from the front and don't have to open a hundred different secret compartments like all the other brewers and not have to worry about pouring water into the guts of the machine. The filter basket is also in the front and slides out with ease.
- No timer. Yes, that is a good thing! The water is always ready for you and this coffee is ready to go in under 3 minutes. Swivel open the top, pour the water in, put the decanter in place, close the lid and 200 degree F water immediately starts to saturate your grounds. Plus, do you really want your coffee sitting around on the burner, getting burned, while you are in bed smashing the snooze button. You can brew a whole pot of coffee in the time that it takes a pod-type brewer to make just one cup. And this is no exaggeration.
Do yourself a favor; spend the extra money NOW and buy this BUNN (or any other for that matter) and it will last for many years to come. We all know the cheap ones do not stay hot for very long and you end up throwing it out. So eventually, you will spend more than the cost of this BUNN.
