This brewer is the same as one manufactured by Melitta, a German company, and licensed in the US to Bonavita. The coffeemaker fills a niche as a high quality and sensibly priced, high end brewer. Our own tests have shown the brew temperature, strength and flavor comparable to more expensive brands, but with less emphasis on making a design statement.
