Amazon.com Review
Standing handsomely on its pedestal base, this big coffeemaker is ideal for a buffet line, office, or any other situation where a lot of people drink a lot of coffee. It percolates up to 55 cups at a cup-a-minute rate and then automatically switches to keep-warm, serving-temperature mode. That's when the light goes on. And that's when the spigot shows off its no-drip capacity, perfect for spotless cup-and-saucer use. The urn is all stainless steel--for beauty and easy cleanup--except for a stay-cool base that won't harm any surface and stay-cool handles that make it simple and safe to move the urn from place to place. The urn's cover locks in place to prevent accidental spills. --Fred Brack

1 out of 5 stars A Bad Buy At Any Cost!   December 28, 2007
T. Cummins (Dallas, Texas)
I've read other reviews here on Amazon about these units just quitting after several uses. Someone bought two for their church and one burned out after 5 uses. We bought two for our church and one burned out within the first year. They're attractive, but I'll never buy another one.

Its always amazing when you come across an appliance that does what it is designed to do, is totally reliable and durable and looks great. This Farberware Urn is not only simple to operate but makes the best tasting coffee. The really nice feature of a Farberware is that it will keep coffee hot and tasting great (never burned) for hours. I've never had any other coffee system keep coffee hot and maintain it's taste for as long. We just purchased another one. Our first one has lasted for 10 years and still operates like new. You can make up to 55 cups. The price is very fair.

My mother-in-law had one of these for 30 years and it's amazing that the same one is still being sold. We love it. Amazon price was the lowest we could find and we received it in 3 days from our order.

I ordered this Urn for Chapelwood United Methodist Church as a gift from the Seekers Sunday School Class to replace one we had for many years. It arrived earlier than the estimated time during the Christmas season. Thanks for the fast delivery.

I just came across this urn,the reason being I'm shopping for its replacment. This urn doesn't percolate thoroughly or saturate the basket. It brews weak due to this defect. I have checked water and grind ratios. I also agree that it doesn't keep it hot enough. Thanks for the input, I will not waste time by calling for service and I will not purchase this brand personally.
I am considering a BUN for both brew time and heat and serving it in 2 stainless airpots..
