Owners of this coffee maker seem to all agree on one thing: if it's quick tasty coffee you want, this is one coffee maker that will get the job done for you, 'instantly'. While most home coffee makers with the same capacity make coffee in 4 to 8 minutes the BUNN NHBX-B Contemporary 10-Cup Home Coffee Maker does the job in 3 minutes at most. This speed is achieved through adding a reservoir that contains preheated water, this in effect cuts the time it takes for water to boil in half. The downside, as expressed by some consumers, is a slightly higher energy consumption and electricity bill. To bypass this issue, you could of course switch off the 'keeping the hot water' option. Yet, users who did that complained that it takes as much as 15 minutes to make coffee when you switch it back on. So it is not something you can do on a daily basis. Another concern that consumers echoed is that you might have to exclusively buy the BUNN coffee filters, many other brands could collapse because of the strong jet from this particular coffee maker; they are also taller than most filters and thus prevent ground coffee overflow. Some other reviewers found a permanent washable filter to work perfectly fine with this coffee maker.

As for user-friendliness, consumers stated that reading the instructions renders the installation process and use of the coffee maker quite a breeze. In fact, this home coffee maker's owners maintain one opinion: read the instructions carefully. There are important information and tips in the start-up guide and user manual.

With an elegant black design, and fitting compactly right on your counter top, this drip coffee maker seems to be the favorite of many. The coffee temperature is commended by most users for being as hot as they would like it to be. Some consumers have complained that it was rather weak, but it is an issue that is simply solved by adding more coffee, and paying attention to the coarseness of the ground coffee used.

Complaints about water leaking from the tank seemingly caused by the plastic top, into which water is poured separating from the stainless steel tank and the sprayer falling off after a short period of use, seem to hint at the lack of sturdiness, and perhaps durability of the machine itself.

All in all, the fast and effective BUNN NHBX-B Contemporary 10-Cup Home Coffee Maker is highly praised by the coffee hounds. It is not for the occasional week-end coffee drinker. Somewhat lacking on the sturdiness side, but with pleasant customer support and good company follow up as per consumers testimonies, most issues are promptly resolved. Ideal for entertaining: you can easily brew a second round of coffee for guests in your home with absolutely NO waiting time!
