Bunn 13300.0001 VP17-1SS Pourover Coffee Brewer with 1 Warmer, Stainless Steel

I hope a few coffee aficionados will take a moment and read along in silent prayer; for my coffeemaker produced its final brew just last month. After so many years together it came as no surprise, but the sorrow still remains. The Bunn is my coffee maker; I shall not percolate. Bunn maketh my beverage in three minutes; it brewith my coffee with hot waters. Bunn restoreth my soul; it leadeth me in the path of righteous joe for its name sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of decaf, I will fear no freeze dried; for Bunn art with me; thy warmer and decanter comfort me. Bunn prepares the mug before me in the presence of mine boxer shorts: thou filleth my head with joy; my cup runneth over. Surely goodness and coffee shall follow me all the days of my life; and I will dwell in my house, with a Bunn, forever. Amen. I'm sure the soul crushing experience of having to replace such a faithful, long serving appliance will be with me for some time. But that's just what makes this banal piece of equipment transcend a level beyond that which a disposable society recognizes. For more than thirteen years my Bunn coffee maker has produced at least one pot of coffee per day, with vacations no more frequent than my own. Considering the purchase price and absolute care free performance, this amortizes to less than three cents per pot of consistent, fast and perfect coffee. What a fantastic value that device has been. Through my grief, not anger since it lasted longer than any other coffeemaker (by an order of magnitude); I decided to take a leap to the commercial grade model (VP-17). It shares some similarities with the home version with a tank of water preheated and always ready to brew. This is the same philosophy which operates most home water heaters, where maintaining a hot tank of water is more efficient than starting from faucet temperatures. When the tank is filled with cold water, it displaces the water which was waiting at the optimal temperature, for a drip brewed coffee just like you get in every diner and restaurant across the country, because it is the same piece of equipment. You will need to order a decanter as the VP-17 does not include this accessory, but a fill pitcher IS included. I prefer the glass decanter for looks and performance since it has no moving parts like the broad lid on the home version. This is a larger unit with the body standing at 16 7/8 inches and the filling lid topping out at 17 ¾ inches closed. Measure the area you are considering for any clearance issues. It is a stainless steel beauty which is clearly built to last. The unit does come with some coffee filters which are larger than the home version. Remember you are brewing with the big boys now. If this machine lasts as long as the other, then I won't be buying another one till the year 2025, if man is still alive, if woman can survive.....

Excellent coffee machine. I bought it from my office. It works well, keeps the coffee, hot, easy to clean and use. It was such a great addition to my office that I ended up buying three more for other facilities. I would highly recommend this product if you need to consistently make coffee. I would order an extra coffee pot as a back up because it only comes with one

Once it is set up you get a pot of coffee in under 5 minutes. I have ours on a timer so it is not running all day and wasting hydro and is available for our morning coffee. Lower warming element Keeps our coffee hot. Well constructed, we replaced the OEM plastic funnel with a metal one so our coffee is plastic free.

This is a terrific coffee maker. It makes wonderful coffee, quickly. I bought this coffee maker because I was looking for a coffee maker that did not contain plastic, and while this comes with a plastic coffee basket you can purchase a stainless basket for this machine, which I did. I’ve included the link below. I did not want to drink coffee every day with plastic leeching into the brew, so this was essential for me. This machine is built to last, it does not have auto shutoff or any fancy features, you can either get an outlet timer to auto shut if that’s what you are looking for. After reading the reviews, some people recommended getting a funnel tip for the stainless basket. ( it simply screws onto the bottom of coffee basket) I got the funnel tip, it was only about five dollars. It brews flavorful coffee each time, it is not weak it is a perfect pot of coffee. The coffee maker is on the large size, but fits under my kitchen cabinet. You fill the water from the top front of machine, so you just have to make sure this portion is not under the cabinet. Some reviews mention over flow issues, I have never had a problem once. I did buy the bunn coffee filters so of course they fit perfectly. Yes, some things must be purchased in addition to the machine, such as the coffee pot, and stainless basket if you want no plastic, but this machine seems like it will outlast any other coffee maker I’ve ever had. I know this brand, and this coffee maker is what they use in diners and they are made to last. So is it a higher price than other coffee makers yes, but when you are buying something stainless steel and made to withstand the test of time, one that doesn’t need to be replaced every couple of years and one that isn’t plastic it is well worth the initial expense and it makes a terrific cup of coffee. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00A4N7OE8/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o08_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00KNQDBKC/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o07_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B006SVK1VS/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004NEWA1Q/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o08_s03?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Expensive but well worth it. You will save yourself so many trips to Tim Horton with this coffeemaker. The taste is sublime for every cup you make. No more plastic tasting coffee, you get the real coffee bean taste and it will last you for decades. 12 cups in 3 minutes! Service was very fast and the coffeemaker arrived without damage. Happy customer! 5/5 stars!
