get glass
i have a commercial bunn in my home and i work on them as a tech. the plastic and metal will separate over time and leak. don’t believe me? just get a few and you will find out….
Expensive- Short lifespan
Dishwasher safe yet not for use with “Rinse Aid”… For the home user this makes for “Not really dishwasher safe” or at least it does for me. So I have used this pot every day for about a month and it has started a slow leak at the seam between the steel and plastic. This is the second Bunn plastic/steel decanter I have bought that leaks in this way. Poor design I guess.
So here is the deal. I am very unhappy with this pot and another just like it. If two out of two do this for me in less than a year, chances are they will all leak under the same conditions. I personally prefer the long life of the glass decanter over the this plastic junk. I am sure I could get replacement but I am just sick of the effort.
This purchase was depressing.
Not What I Expected, My Mistake
I recently purchased the BUNN 13300.001 VP17 coffee brewer. It is a stainless steel unit of commercial quality. It is all stainless steel with the exception of its hatch cover and funnel. I hated the plastic materials used in the other coffeemakers I’ve had in the past. I purchased this pot because it was the one shown in the coffee brewer’s illustration. The stainless steel bottom shown in the illustration looked really neat, but the pot itself is plastic, not glass. Unfortunately, I did not read its description and customer reviews carefully enough and purchased it. I later purchased the glass pot and use the plastic one as a spare or for extra guests. It just did not make any sense to me to buy an all stainless machine to escape that plastic taste and then have the hot coffee drip into a plastic pot. Therefore, I personally do not like this pot. I am sure the plastic pot is convenient for some to avoid breaking glass pots if you are prone to do so. A couple of reviewers…
