It’s a Bonavita, but… – Let me start by saying I love Bonavita. I got my first one 8+ years ago, after hearing and reading about them, and how highly rated they were. I ordered a BV1800 and was very impressed. Mr. Coffee went to the storage closet to await emergency use. Well, after 8 years, the Bonavita carafe somehow developed a crack in the glass despite how careful I always was with it. Shortly after, the carafe actually lost a big chunk of the rim and even though various BV1800-owners commented on the internet that their choice of glass replacement carafe worked for them, I ordered and returned several that did not fit. And since the unit is out of production, I couldn’t just order another BV1800.

– Bland tasteless coffee. Compared to both my 25 year old Melitta pour-over as well as my newer Kalita pour-over, the coffee from the Bonavita lacks any flavour. I tried both regular and pre-infusion modes, both both made a similar tasteless cup of joe. My coffee grinder is a Breville burr grinder, which might not be top of the line, but it doesn’t stop the others from making good coffee. Having to pre-heat the carafe is also a pain just to get a hot cup of coffee in the morning. I bought the Bonavita hoping for an easier morning routine, but it hasn’t worked out unfortunately.

Great coffee but after four years we switched – This review is done after four years of daily use of the Bonavita BV1901TS. It makes excellent coffee. The unit stopped working one day recently and like most appliances these days it is basically unrepairable. Four years to me is not that long but so be it. Initially my instinct was to just order another one but this coffee maker has some faults that, for the price, are annoying over time. One, the carafe with the lid that has to be removed to make coffee. Over time the seal for this lid which is a silicone ring failed and started to leak coffee when pouring. I contacted the company and was told you can’t buy the seal ring and need a new lid for $15 plus shipping. I found a seal somewhere around the house and managed to make it work. The carafe is ergonomically not great, it’s like it’s just not well designed to smoothly pour coffee and the balance of the pot is off so that pouring is not “nice” compared to other thermal carafes we have. I know this is nitpicking but this is a high end drip maker and it should be more refined. The coffee filter basket hangs above the pot and it’s quite easy to hook and pull out when removing the pot. For me that’s a “mess” risk, especially before I have my coffee. In the end we decided to change to another pot that is about the same price, or a bit more and purchased the OXO brand coffee maker. So far after a couple of months we are quite pleased. The coffee is equally good which is the most critical test. The carafe lid stays in place during brewing, the basket inserts from the top so no risk of hooking it. And the carafe is very comfortable to hold, well balanced and the pour is very nice. My only nitpick is the filter basket doesn’t sit flat when you lay it down but this doesn’t cause me any issues. Summary: Both make great coffee. I was a little aggravated at Bonavita’s design, failure after four years, and lack of availabilty of a $2 seal replacement. So they lost this customer for now.

– After a terrible experience with an overpriced Technivorm Moccamaster I decided to try out the newest in the Bonavita line. I read the reviews on older models of what people disliked mostly carafe dripping and grind holder resting on the carafe and seems Bonavita listed and fixed those in the connosisseur model.

– This product produces great coffee is very quick at brewing 8 cups. My only complaint is that you cannot have the lid on the carafe when brewing, so it loses a lot of heat by the time it’s done brewing 8 cups. There is also no heating plate to keep the coffee warm after brewing. Although the carafe is stainless steel and even if you put the lid on the carafe immediately after the machine is done brewing, it is not a well insulated carafe and loses its heat very quickly. I guess I could transfer the coffee into another carafe after brewing, but you would think that based on the price of this machine, the company would do a better job at making sure your coffee stays warm after brewing.
