Specifications

Include Tags Upload
The patented head spray is unique in that it gives coffee grounds an even amount of spray, ensuring that every drop of flavor is extracted for full, flavorful, and steaming cup of quality coffee. Hot water is kept and may be used for other purposes like tea and instant food and beverages.

Stainless steel in both white and black colors in clean sleek lines fit for a contemporary design. The NHBX Brewer is excellent for large households or office spaces.

Key Features

- It has an easy to use sliding lid for additional water.
- The decanter can hold up to 50 ounces of water and brews up to ten cups of coffee within three minutes.
- It uses a stainless steel tank.
- It keeps water at constant brewing temperature for fast results.
- It has a patented spray head for ensuring coffee taste.
- It has warming plate, porcelain covered and has a lighted on and off switch.
- It has a vacation switch to turn off heat.
- It comes in both white and black colored models.

Advantages

The NHBX Brewer is easy to use with its sliding lid decanter that can hold up to 10 cups of coffee. The water tank is kept at constantly high temperature, making sure that coffee is always there when needed. Brewing time only takes about 3 minutes.

Pouring out a rich cup of coffee is ensured by the patented spray head. Water diffused is evenly distributed to extract the last drop of taste of the grounds for maximum enjoyment. Made to last, the NHBX Brewer is constructed out of stainless steel.

Easy to use without too many complicated buttons, the whole device can be controlled simply via two main switches. A vacation switch is also made available for those who plan to leave for more than two days. Simply flip the switch, and the machine will stop maintaining the heat of the water.

Disadvantages

The product needs approximately 15 minutes to heat water. Initially, users will place 50 ounces of water in the reservoir where it will take 15 minutes to heat the water and it will be kept hot until you are ready to brew coffee. However, after this initial 15 minutes, you will merely have to add another 50 ounces of cold water to the reservoir, which will then displace the hot water that will be used to diffuse the coffee grounds.

The cold water will also be heated and ready for the next brewing. The spray head also has to be cleaned more frequently.

Pros:
- vacation switch allows users to turn off constant heating in the event that they plan to make a long trip
- decanter can hold and make up to 50 ounces of water, translating to 10 cups of coffee ideal for large households or office spaces
- has simple control
- has complete instruction manual.
- constantly available, perfectly heated water for brewing and other purposes
- 3-minute brewing process for a fast yet quality cup of coffee

Cons:
- initial heating time for water of 15 minutes at the time of purchase
- advanced spray head would need to be cleaned from time to time, although a uniquely made cleaning device already comes with the product especially made for the spray head

This coffee maker, though a bit expensive, is worth every penny for the every day coffee drinkers.

It has a water reservoir which is thermostat controlled, making mornings easy because the coffee brews so quickly. If you are not going to brew coffee every morning there is a vacation switch, but make sure that when you do come back home to brew you allow a few minutes for the water to heat back up to the set temperature.

The spray head is an interesting feature on this maker because instead of just pouring down in one spot on the coffee grounds it has a fountain like effect covering all the grounds allowing everything to become moistened which then allows more taste to come through.

I've had a lot of coffee makers throughout my life. From Cuisinart to Hamilton Beach to Braun. And with all of those, the carafe, no matter how spill proof they claimed, always leaked everywhere when I'd pour water into the reservoir or coffee into a cup. The carafe on this maker has yet to do that to me. I cannot clearly state how big of a perk this was for me.

Cleaning this pot is standard and simple. Once every two to four weeks run a pot of vinegar water through the system and then flush with several pots of regular water. The carafe is dishwasher safe and the maker itself is easy to take apart and put back together if you are inclined to give it a really deep clean.

This pot also offered a three year warranty, which I have yet to use and I have had mine for two years now.

It also boasts a very modern design, making it easy to incorporate to most kitchens. It is primarily stainless steel and trimmed with black.

All in all, this is a great coffee maker and I highly recommend it to everyone. I have yet to be disappointed and it really makes mornings a breeze.

I have to say that this Coffee Maker is undoubtedly the best maker I have ever owned!!
My husband and I recieved the BUNN NHBX Maker as a christmas gift 2 years ago. We had wasted so much money on cheap makers that would only leak, and brew luke warm coffee and knew we ought to ask for the one my in-laws used.

One main thing that I love about this maker is that it can brew up to 10 cups of coffee in less than 3 minutes, and it is HOT.

There is a heat tank with a ON/OFF switch that when kept on the water in the tank is constantly hot, providing you with a perfect cup of coffee almost immediatley.

Another great thing about this maker is that it has a long life.

my inlaws have had their BUNN for 5 years, and I can honestly say that I when it comes to getting a new maker I will only buy a BUNN.

The heat that this maker uses to brew coffee allows the flavor of the coffee to be strong. You will no longer sip your coffee and wonder why it tastes like plastic instead of french vanilla or any other flavor youve chosen.

I hope that when you are lookin for a new maker you seriously consider BUNN. You will not be disappointed.

starstarstarstarstar 		100% satisfied
by: Wesley

The first thing I said to myself when it brewed my first cup of coffee was "wow"! It was done in 3 minutes! That is what I call fast service. Not only did this machine brew my coffee in 3 minutes, it was HOT!

I used to have a Mr. Coffee, every time I would brew coffee, I though about putting it in the microwave for 2 minutes. This machine was one of the best things I invested in. It is a powerful machine. This was the hottest coffee I had ever seen come out of a machine this small.

I don't even go to my local coffee shop anymore like I used to. I really don't need to anymore. I got hot, fresh, and not to mention fast coffee by the time I am halfway done cooking my morning breakfast. I used to have to wait for my coffee, now my coffee waits for me.

I am 100% satisfied with the machine I purchased. It will come in handy for anybody who is running late in the morning and need fresh coffee on the go.

BUNN is the best coffee maker brand I have ever seen in my life. I think every kitchen should have one.

starstarstarstarstar 		Will purchase again
by: Rachael

This coffee maker is the best one I have ever had! I have had dozens of coffee makers through the years, and this coffee maker beats every last one I have had, bar none.

It has a stainless steel tank "reservoir" where water is constantly kept at the ideal temperature for brewing coffee. It also brews an entire 10-cup pot of coffee in under three minutes. This allows the perfect extraction of flavor from the coffee grounds, and I end up with a very smooth, non-bitter cup of coffee.

When you pour water into the top of the coffee maker, it starts making noise for about fifteen minutes.

The water that was previously held in the reservoir to brew the coffee is the water forced through for that particular pot, and the new water being poured into the reservoir is being heated--thus the noise.

The speed of brewing was essential for making our choice in coffee maker. My husband is on call for work, and he wouldn't have time to stand around and wait for the coffee to finish brewing.

He needed to be out the door and on his way to work. We chose the Bunn over the other coffee makers with timers because it could brew so quickly. We purchased our Bunn coffee maker from Kohl's, of all places, for around $120, and it is worth it's weight in gold.

We had a hard time spending so much money on a coffee maker at first, until we took a step back and realized that of all our appliances, the coffee maker is the one that gets used every single day, sometimes twice a day, no matter what.

In the past we have owned Sunbeam coffee makers, Mr. Coffee coffee makers, Hamilton Beach coffee makers, and Oster coffee makers, and none of them can hold a candle to our Bunn coffee maker.

We hope to get years of use from this machine, and when it is time to buy a new one, we plan on purchasing the same exact coffee maker again.
