We've had our Bunn for more than 5 years and it's still doing a
superb job! Love it. In fact, DH is going out of town for a
while and is taking it *with* him. I'll dig out my old Braun.
It works well too; it just isn't as fast as the Bunn. 10 minutes
or so verses THREE.

I recommend either. Price differences are approximately $ 25
(Braun) and $ 99 (Bunn).
