Same though I have the glass carafe. I know that people love the thermal version but I've read that the glass is easier to clean, and I drink my coffee fresh so I don't need the carafe to keep it warm.
I’m on my second Bonavita drip machine, and both have been glass carafe versions with the hot plate. I find it kind of annoying that the hot plate turns off as quickly as it does (feels like less than an hour) but it is nice that it doesn’t just stay on indefinitely. Eventually I do want to get a Moccamaster.
I've got a Bonavita drip coffee maker (glass carafe) that's we've been using daily for the past ... 11 years. Last year I dropped the glass carafe in the sink and broke it 😞 and we looked into getting a Moccamaster, but my husband didn't like it and thought it was flimsy haha. We bought a replacement carafe meant for pour over and have kept on trucking with the Bonavita.
I have the same, solid brewer.
I have a Moccamaster at work and it's an upgrade over the enthusiast, but the Bonavita was a bargain, bought when Kohls stocked them a few years ago and it's been problem free.
I think at the end of the day results rule.
This is my 3rd SCA rated brewer.
OXO, Bonavita, and my KBGV and neither of the others are even close to cup quality.
The Bonavita was solid but the Moccamaster still makes a more consistent cup.
The only feature that matters to me is great coffee.
I bought the Bonavita enthusiast and I’ve been very impressed. It’s my first coffee maker. started with French press 19 years ago in HS, switched to pour over about 5/6 years ago.
Now I feel a little dumb waiting so long 🤣🤣🤣
I agree with the Bonavita recommendation. Currently have the Enthusiast and love it (the removable water tank makes life just a little easier). Had a smaller version for several years before it stopped working well.
