BUNN 2.5 Liter Lever-Action Airpot, Stainless Steel, 32125.0000

I've been using a French press since my previous percolator died. It makes excellent coffee, but it has the annoying property of cooling to room temperature before I finish my first 16oz travel mug. br>br>I tried a thermal carafe, but it only keeps coffee hot for about 2 hours at most; if I guzzle my coffee, I can finish it all, but if I sip it slowly, it's lukewarm by the time I return for seconds. If there are any remaining thirds, they should be at room temperature. br>br>After getting tired of dumping cold coffee, I decided to purchase an airpot. br>br>An airpot is a Thermos-style container with a handle. like a vacuum-insulated urn with a pump that claims to keep coffee hot for 4 to 6 hours, which is twice as long as a thermal carafe. But I'm hesitant to make such a purchase: I try to avoid purchasing anything that isn't made in the United States. Because the majority of products are trash waiting to be sent back to the landfill, electronic durable goods from "marketplace" retailers who don't curate their selections are a bad idea. It's a risky proposition. br>br>That's why I was thrilled to find a Bunn airpot for a reasonable price. br>br>However, it's too big for my needs - The French press has taught me that I can get by on about a liter of coffee per day, and that the less full an airpot is, the faster it loses heat - However, I have no doubts about the quality of the product. br>br>The airpot fulfills its purpose. It maintains the temperature of the coffee until I'm ready to consume it. Even though the third cup isn't quite as hot as the first, it's still too hot to drink. The best part is that this product is built to outlast its own warranty. If it breaks, I can replace the parts rather than throwing it away and hoping that my next gamble pays off. br>br>As for the French press, it's getting old. I'm hoping that the Bunn GRB coffee maker, like the Bunn airpot, lives up to the company's reputation.

Solid construction with a well-designed top that can be removed for cleaning. It has exceeded my expectations. The length of time it takes to keep a beverage hot is determined, among other things, by how full it is. It will still have hot coffee in the afternoon if it was filled with hot coffee in the morning. br>br>The style of operation is quite nice in that it minimizes a person's contact with the pot, and you can easily use a napkin or something similar if you don't want to touch the handle directly (in light of the modern pandemic era's squeemishness). br>br>The handle is made of metal that has been cast. The suction tube and the fluid chamber are both made of stainless steel. The discharge portion is made of plastic and only comes into contact with the fluid as it pours out.

I purchased this airpot on April 7, 2016, and used it a few times before the summer arrived. It has recently gotten colder (hello, winter!). ), and the importance of keeping tea hot was reasserted. While I'm happy to report that the pot continues to keep things warm, it's pretty much useless now. It dispenses about half of what is put into it every time it is filled, without the lever being touched. I thought I was being particularly clumsy when I poured the tea in, but the day I actually caught it doing it without any external input proved otherwise: the pot is NOT being overfilled. In every case, I was adding 9-digit numbers. 12 (the size of a coffeemaker, so 45 minutes) To the pot, add a total of 60 oz. of tea. br>br>As a result, the product is effectively useless. I've reached out to both Amazon and the manufacturer, but have yet to hear back. I'll do it again, hoping to get a response at the very least. This review will remain unchanged if the response is anything other than "we will replace it for you as soon as possible. " br>br>Recent changes: br>br> Amazon has sent me a replacement, which I am grateful for. It was a lightning-quick response, as well as a replacement. Because the product's problem did not appear for 7 days, After 8 months, I'll provide an update.

For over a year, we were pleased with the Bunn Airpot, but it eventually stopped keeping our coffee warm. Before going to bed, I would always fill the pot with scalding hot water. I'd also prepare the coffee pot ahead of time so that all I had to do was press a button. br>br>The water in the Bunn Airpot was always extremely warm the following morning. It's nearly hot outside. The next morning, however, the water in the Airpot was ice cold. I thought I'd made a blunder and filled it with cold water. Then I noticed that the coffee was no longer kept hot. The Bunn Airpot is lucky if the coffee stays warm for an hour. To keep the heat in, I've started wrapping a towel around it. It doesn't work as well as it did in the past. br>br>Working for a little more than a year is far too expensive.

The overall design is appealing to me. The materials used should be long-lasting, and it looks nice; my only complaint is that it retains heat. Coffee stays hotter for longer in my large, old thermos bottle. This Bunn, like me, is short and wide, and as a result, loses heat through the top. br>br> I use a large amount of boiling water to preheat the Bunn, and there is no heat loss through the top, sides, or bottom. br>br>Perhaps my expectations were too high, and I was let down. Perhaps it will be useful to you. It's just not my cup of tea. I've begun the process of returning the item.
