Use filtered or distilled water for best results and preventing corrosion in the unit.
Excellent--I bought this as a replacement for one that was getting repaired. It worked exactly as expected. You need to use filtered water, with these though because hard water will corrode the internal parts and the heater and it will just stop working. That is what happened to the one that needed to be repaired. A lot of tap water is hard had has calcium and chlorine that will corrode the element and the tubes quickly. These brewers are great and the coffee is the best.

Good appliance, but it doesn't really brew 3 liters of coffee at a time.
I hope this review will help others who receive this thing and can't figure out how to operate it. The first step is to throw away the manual that came with it. The manual that comes with it will only cause you to tear your hair out. It applies to 11 different models and none of them seem to be this model. I finally called technical support to learn how to use it. It helps to understand how Bunn coffee makers work. rather than heating the water at the time of brewing like an ordinary coffee pot, they keep a reservoir of water hot at all times so that they can brew very fast. The first step before even plugging in this unit is to fill that reservoir by pouring 3 pitchers of water in to the top slowly until water starts to flow out of the funnel. Then plug it in and turn on the switch at the back. Mine had a plastic tie that had to be cut in order to flip the switch. That is because you can damage the machine by turning it on with no water.Wait about 20 minutes until the green "ready" light comes on. Now you are ready to brew! As soon as you add cold water to the machine, an equal amount of hot water will Immediately begin flowing into the brew funnel.Now comes the part where I take off 2 stars. This unit is advertised as brewing up to 3 liters. While it is technically true that you can fill a 3L airpot, if you try to pour 3 liters in at once it will overflow. The technician at Bunn told me that it is actually designed for 64oz at a time, or about 2L. That means you have to add the water in two stages, waiting a couple minutes between. Doing this I see that the temperature of the water, which peaked at 192F, drops to 163F by the end of the brew. This may not affect the final flavor of the coffee, as I think most of the extraction happens early on. The only way around this temperature issue is to put in 2 liters, wait for the light to come back on, then put in the rest. If I had known this, I would have bought the VPR-APS model which I have seen for about $100 less! It also brews 2L at a time. The only reason I spent the extra money was for the convenience of brewing 3L at once. I am still debating whether to return this, but I don't really want to wait for a replacement as I need to brew a lot of coffee this weekend.Update: I have raised my review from 3 to 4 stars. I've been using this pot for 8 months now and it is great. SInce I wrote the review initially I contacted Amazon by chat and they refunded me the difference in price from the other Bunn model mentioned above. This brewer makes excellent coffee and it makes it fast. If they update the description to clarify that you can't pour 3 liters of water in at once I will upgrade to 5 stars.

Burning plastic smell from this brewer!
This Commercial brewer smells like burning plastic when plugged in. This smell has continued for two weeks, and is a horrible, strong odor. Would not recommend this unit to others.
