I purchased this brewer in December of 2008 and it has worked perfectly every day. Here is the review I wrote on 26 April of 2009 for an older Amazon listing of the same coffee maker:
“I read the reviews about how unreliable this machine was, but I figured that people who are satisfied with their purchases are less likely to write a review than people who have problems. So I took a chance.
My only complaint so far is the difficulty of the start-up procedure. I had to use a baster to force water into the reservoir pump to get it started. I learned this trick from another reviewer on this website. Bunn would do their customers a great service by including a similar tool more suited to the task with each MCP they sell, along with the accompanying instructions. I have used this coffee maker everyday for five months and it has worked perfectly. Yes, it is noisy, but who cares? I finally have a GOOD, HOT cup of coffee in the morning!
While researching coffee makers I went to the Bunn website and discovered a helpful page called “Bunn Coffee Basics” which explained how a good cup of coffee is made. Bunn says that the water temperature during brewing should be between 195 and 205 degrees and that the best flavor comes from the beginning of the brew cycle (brew too cool and too long and you get bitter, acidic coffee). These are two elements of brewing that that drip coffee makers get horribly wrong. Conventional drip brewers never get hot enough, and to make matters worse they take a very long time to brew because they heat their water on the fly. The Bunn MCP pre-heats its water in a stainless steel tank. When I first set-up my MCP I tested the temperature of the water after brewing and it was consistently above 190 degrees (some temperature is lost during the brewing cycle).
I justified the high cost of purchase in two ways:
1. The convenience of brewing at home cannot be overstated. I get my coffee when I want it, the way I want it.
2. Coffee pods cost about 20 to 25 cents each. Starbucks or Dunkin’ Donuts coffee costs a dollar thirty and up, depending on where you live. For me this machine will pay for itself in less than a year.”
Nothing has changed about my opinion of this brewer. It makes hot, great tasting coffee fast.

I came back to Amazon to order a My Cafe for a friend. I have had mine for about two years now and love it. It couldn’t be easier to use and there has been virtually no need for cleaning. Bunn is great to work with too. I had one of their normal coffee pots that eventually crapped out after what had to have been close to ten years. I mailed it in to get fixed and they just sent me a new unit!

I have been using this new BUNN My cafe for several weeks and I really like it. It keeps the water hot all the time so when your ready to make a cup of coffee or tea it’s ready instantly. My wife likes tea and I drink coffee so the tea setting works great for her and the unit comes with two Pod holders so we make one for coffee and the other Tea. It’s and expensive unit but really has a commercial quality look and feel. I would recommend this to the busy family always on the GO!!

This is an excellent single cup brewer; however, the customer service leads much to be desired. They would not, i.e., refused to give a recommendation on what type of pods to purchase. Bunn did not enclose any samples so the buyer has no idea what to purchase. I ended up guessing and guessed incorrectly, and finally found the only one that tastes satisfactory: Baronet 12 gram. Wolfgang Puck and the Senso (s) are 8 gram and the coffee tastes like pee water, only the 12 gram Baronet is satisfactory. Some of the Kona Hawaian I think is 12 gram but it is very expensive, and I am sure no better than Baronet, but I cannot say for sure because I refuse to pay that much money for a daily cup of coffee. I highly recommend the Bunn Coffee maker, but Customer Service leaves a little bit to be desired, in as much as they refused to tell me which brand(s) and what size to get.

This may be a commercial unit, but it has not passed the simple test of private residential use. My wife and I are one-cup-a-day coffee drinkers for the most part. We did not need a commercial coffee maker, but I enjoy quality and usually try to purchase things that last. This coffee maker works okay…when it works! After 11 months of use, the unit failed and would not work. I called Bunn and was able to send it to them for a repair or replacement. They did replace the unit. That was about 18 months ago. Well, once again, the coffee maker is not working. The base unit leaks and is shorting out. It keeps blowing the breaker. Let it sit for a few days and it will work again for a few days. I woke up this morning to have my Sunday morning coffee and, you guessed it, not working. It’s to the trash for this rather expensive machine!!! When it did work, I liked the unit, but the switch at the bottom that determined the amount of coffee to brew sometimes was accurate and other times was not. We had a lot of half full cups and a lot of over flows. If you want to take a gamble on this machine at home, go ahead. For business purposes, this is probably not a gamble you want to take! I gave it two stars because the coffee produced was good when it worked.
