Enthusiast

I’m pretty happy with my Bonavita. You want to get the Enthusiast model with the insulated carafe and filter holder that slides in to the brewer.

I've got an Aiden, which makes delicious coffee. I only use the medium roast built-in profile. I find the day-to-day usage somewhat glitchy. It sometimes thinks it needs water, when it already has plenty - I do not know if you would be able to detect the 'add water' alert without being able to see t

I just purchased a Bonavita Enthusiast 8 cup for $150 off of Amazon. I know your question is the best, but this is a great machine for the money.

My pleasure! 😊 I've owned both the Ninja CE251 and the Bonavita Enthusiast--they both make great coffee! The Bonavita is fast and more compact than the Ninja.

I have a Bonavita that I like but it may be bit over your price range. It's the Bonavita Enthusiast 8 Cup Drip Coffee Brewer. I paid around $150 USD for it. It doesn't have any fancy features like a timer to automatically brew in the morning, for example, but it does make a pretty tasty pot of coffe

I agree with the Bonavita recommendation. Currently have the Enthusiast and love it (the removable water tank makes life just a little easier). Had a smaller version for several years before it stopped working well.
