BUNN CSB2B Speed Brew Elite 10-Cup Coffee Maker, Black/SST

I purchased this Bunn coffee maker for 3 reasons: 1. It has a metal reservoir. 2. It brews quickly (we are a caff/decaf mixed household so it allows separate brews in the morning) and 3. It is made in the USA. If your motivations align with the above, you will be happy with your purchase as those pros outweigh the negatives, all of which stem from any prior experience you’ve had with a typical drip coffee maker.The design of the filter basket is why the brew cycle is shorter. Rather than the typical gasket/spring arrangement, the Bunn basket has a simple hole that allows the water to filter through the basket quickly. This not only speeds up the process, but because the grinds are not swimming in water for any length of time, I noticed that the coffee is less bitter and I could almost go without my normal cream. HOWEVER, it does require that you use a fine grind coffee and you actually use a tablespoon for each cup of water. Essentially, I had to upgrade my coffee and double the amount that I use. I also found that the decaf coffee was weaker than the regular coffee even with using the full recommended number of Tablespoons. I was able to equalize it by using 2 coffee filters to slightly slow down the drip without adding bitterness, and yes, use the Bunn filters. They are just a bit taller.Some people objected to the water heater running when not in use. I compromise and turn the water heater off after all the morning coffees have been brewed and turn it on again in the evening when I would normally be setting up my older auto brew drip coffee maker.The set up is clear in the “quick” set up instruction, regular instructions, and taped warnings on the unit itself to READ THE INSTRUCTIONS before you plug it in. The water reservoir needs to be filled completely before you plug it in.The pour spout on the carafe is a bit odd looking, but it works, so not an issue.All in all I am satisfied with this coffee maker. With the correct grinds, it produces hot, smooth coffee and it looks good on the counter😊

For my use the best coffee maker. Simple to use, quick enough for me, looks great. Retired Military-i drink a lot of coffee, this machine keeps me supplied all day long

Fast, simple, quiet. Made in USA, which was a determining factor in my decision. After 2 weeks of daily use, no complaints at all. Coffee is great, stays hot, and I am overall very pleased with the purchase.

Love this coffee maker! Brews 10 cups in under 5 minutes. Great taste. Looks great on the counter with its stainless steel trim. We’ve used Bunn coffeemakers for 20+ years and they never disappoint. Best available in my opinion.

Excellent coffee pot. Very well made.

Works fine and fast. The pot spout is too narrow, though, and spills if you pour it normally.

Fast delicious coffee! Great design. Fast and easy to set up but read the directions. We are happy customers.

Great coffee maker! It makes coffee very quickly, which I definitely like. I bought this particular coffee maker because the water tank is stainless steel. We are trying to reduce using plastic due to the heath concerns. I just wish you could get an all-stainless coffee filter basket. I would definitely purchase it again.
