As this carafe is the same as the brown handle unit, I've copied my review for the brown. As I have one of each and use both, using the same review seems fair. I use mine at home and at family events to make coffee for everyone. It still works perfectly after about 10 years of use! After brewing coffee, I usually pour it into a vacuum insulated carafe to avoid burning the coffee. A quick rinse with hot water, leave the carafe to dry and it's ready the next day when I get to it.

Dishwasher safe yet not for use with "Rinse Aid"... For the home user this makes for "Not really dishwasher safe" or at least it does for me. So I have used this pot every day for about a month and it has started a slow leak at the seam between the steel and plastic. This is the second Bunn plastic/steel decanter I have bought that leaks in this way. Poor design I guess. So here is the deal. I am very unhappy with this pot and another just like it. If two out of two do this for me in less than a year, chances are they will all leak under the same conditions. I personally prefer the long life of the glass decanter over the this plastic junk. I am sure I could get replacement but I am just sick of the effort. This purchase was depressing.
