What's great about it: Ready and fast
What's not so great: Poor materials. Glass carafe is poorly made and wobbles.
Overall it's a great coffe maker. The secret is the hot water always ready and the spray nozzle. I don't think it's going to last as long as our first Bunn coffe maker. That one lasted 5 years. There are also some sharp edges on the back that scrape the counter if your not careful. If you have the Bunn under a upper cabinet , to fill it you must pull it out and then put it back. We really scratched up our solid surface with our last one.
Still, it makes a great cup of coffe
I would recommend this to a friend!

I have had several Bunn coffee makers thru the years and have alwasy been very happy with them. This is a great coffee maker. Tried going back to a regular brewer and the coffee was awful. This has a nice design. Actually takes up a little less space on the counter. Love it!

What's great about it: Quick pot of coffee
What's not so great: Weak coffee
The pot makes weak coffee. You really need to put in extra coffee to get a stronger cup.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

What's great about it: Makes a good, fast cup of coffee.
What's not so great: The black unit shows dust and spots.
The BUNN NHBB Velocity-Brew Contemporary 10-Cup Coffeemaker doesn't have the bells and whistles of other models and that's one reason I chose it. We've had a couple of Bunn Coffeemakers in the past and have been pleased with them. The previous one lasted eight years. The quick pot of coffee is appreciated first thing in the morning and when serving guests. The black plastic seems to attract dust and shows water spots but that would be true with any black appliance and it cleans easily. Overall, I'm very happy with it and recommend it.

I have wanted a bunn for years but never wanted to pay the high price... I was looking for a replacement when i came across this bunn, i read all the reviews but decided to try it. I did have problems with the pot spilling when pouring. I called bunn and they sent a replacement pot just like others had stated. works fine now. you wont be disappointed.

I gave up trying to find an inexpensive coffeemaker that didn't dribble all over when I poured or make coffee taste like plastic. This may be a little pricey, but it's easy, super fast, no drip pouring, and most importantly, makes great tasting coffee. Be forewarned tho, there's no stopping the brewing to sneak an early cup, you'll have to wait the whole 3 minutes.
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: Fast, great tasting coffee
What's not so great: Price
Coming from a place that the municipal water supply absolutely destroys coffee pots, my last one lasted a year. It was a cheap one from the hardware store for $15 since it was doomed as soon as I poured water into it. Before I threw it out the back door, it was taking over an hour to brew. Now, since I got this pot, I pour the water in and blink a few times and the coffee is done. It tastes great. I am using the Bunn filters as recommended in the owners manual and have had no issues with the grounds overflow issues that others seem to have. The filters are almost 1/2'' taller than regular filters. Definitely worth the extra $.25 at the grocery store. The only time I have seen any leakage was from me accidentally over filling it before I closed the lid to make a pot. This is the best coffee pot I have ever owned.
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: Easy Set up, Great Price and Great Coffee - What more could you ask for?
This is the best purchase I have ever made. Making coffee in under 3 mins, this machine is a work of art. The coffee taste so much better when its made in 3 mins or less due to the drip rate.
Let me put it this way, My husband told me to quit talking about my new coffee pot - I brag about it everyday!
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: Ease of use and fast brew time; sleek design is a space saver
What's not so great: Non-programmable start time
We've had several Bunn coffee makers over the years and this has been by far the best one. The continuous hot water reservoir makes brewing quick and easy. Just a correction to another reviewer's comments who said you needed to be quick with the carafe since the brewing starts when you pour the water in; the brewing actually starts when you close the lid after you pour the water in. Love this coffee maker!

What's great about it: Good coffee-Simple, clean machine with nice stainless details
What's not so great: No timer or auto shut-off
Just bought the Bunn after 4 Mr. Coffee's and 1 Cuisinarts died. Read reviews and decided Bunn is the best for straight, good, hot coffee.
This machine operates very differently than those we are used to for home use. It keeps the water in a reservoir hot at all times so it's ready to brew at a moments notice. The other difference is that the "on" switch is not what starts the brewing process-pouring the water in the top does. Therefore, you had better be ready with the decanter the moment you've poured the water in the top, because the coffee is coming!
No auto shut-off will take some getting used to, but my spouse and I have agreed to just drink it fresh and not let it sit around and "cook" anyhow.
I would recommend this to a friend!
