Across repeated sessions we evaluated it on the categories that matter most: quality, consistency, value, and how likely we are to reach for it again. Ranked #31 of our top 50 coffee makers — a strong drip pick, earning a 4.4★ average across 7,710 Amazon ratings.

The Fastest Home Coffee Makers in America, now with an updated design. Speed Brew Coffee Makers can brew 10 cups of coffee in about 4 minutes because they store hot water in a stainless steel commercial grade tank allowing them to brew coffee on demand. They’re always on your counter, always plugged in and always ready to brew the perfect cup of coffee. Taller funnel - Our funnel is engineered to accommodate BUNN filters which are ¼ Inch taller than other filters. This unique design allows for the quick flow of water and prevents overflow of coffee grounds.

From the roaster

  • BUNN BREWS DIFFERENTLY - The BUNN Speed Brew uses an internal commercial grade stainless steel hot water tank that keeps 70oz of water always hot so you can quickly brew at the flip of a lid.

  • MATTE BLACK FINISH with high-polished stainless-steel backsplash and top-band accent, DESIGNED AND ASSEMBLED in the USA.

    Brews hot coffee in minutes!

    I’ve had 4 different Keurig coffeemakers for the last 14 years. My 4th one recently crapped out. On the recommendation of my niece, I purchased the Bunn Speed Brew with the stainless steel carafe. I was tired of having to buy a new coffeemaker every 3-4 years.

    Spoiled by the Speed Brew

    We have been a BUNN Speed Brew household since 2013 and are honestly spoiled by the Speed Brew system at this point.

    Hands down the best drip coffee maker I've ever had

    This is the best drip coffee maker I have ever had. It's operation mechanism is beautifully simple so I have no doubts that it can last a heck of a long time.I keeps the temperature of the water at a good brewing temperature all the time.

    Fast and great carafe

    Brews a pot almost as fast as a Keurig brews 2 cups thanks to it's built on hot water tank. The carafe is great. Keeps the coffee hot and you don't need to worry about burning a pot on the hot plate.
