Bonavita. One button drip coffee, generally very good quality

I had a Bonavita, traded up to a Moccamaster, and a few months later, went back to the Bonavita. Don't believe the hype.

I have one of these and it's still going strong after a decade of use. The thermal carafe is nice. Keeps coffee hot for a long time and doesn't burn it because there's no heating element. It has one button on it, so operation couldn't be easier.

Bonavita 8 cup drip is what I settled on. It has an on button.

The Bonavita 8 cup which is SCA certified.

I love your response, it’s spot on. I have a Bonavita 8 cup and an Encore grinder and it’s made stellar coffee for 7+ years. Monthly cleanings on both machines keep things running great.

Have had an 8 cup Bonavita for 6 years now. Love it. One button. Does the thing I need it to everyday.

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.
