We bought this particular model because we want our coffee to brew fast and wanted an insulated pot to avoid coffee cooking or forgetting to turn off the burner.It would be an exact fit for our requirements if not for a few quality flaws.First, as with another Bunn we recently owned, the water releases into the grounds in such a way that they splash up the side and a little bit out of the grounds basket - creating a mess you don't have with other brands.(We've tried different methods to prevent this but they don't work consistently.) Also, where the top black piece of the pot assembly is supposed to be sealed with the chrome portion, there is not a tight seal so when you pour a cup of coffee it dribbles out of the seal which makes a mess.(No we haven't dropped it or put it in the dishwasher - this started within the first few days of use.) Summary: Was willing to pay the high price to get the features and company name behind this product initially but the quality of the build is disappointing.Thought the quality problem with my first Bunn purchase was perhaps a one-time thing.Considering this second quality problem with a Bunn purchase, I will not be buying any future products from them.Click Here to see more reviews about: BUNN BTX-B(D) ThermoFresh High Altitude 10-Cup Home Thermal Carafe Coffee Brewer, Black
Product Description:
This unit offers BUNN brewing perfection with the Classic, stainless steel accented design that customers have loved for years.Patterned after BUNN's commercial & restaurant brewing systems, this home brewer puts high quality materials and classic brewing technology into one great package.The stainless-steel tank holds the brew water at approximately 200˚F, the temperature required to extract the maximum flavor from coffee.

This combination of "time, temperature & turbulence" is the hallmark of BUNN's home brewing system --- and something unavailable in any other home brewer.This is a high-altitude version of the BUNN thermal home brewer with stainless steel vacuum insulated carafe and stainless accents.
