We have only replaced in one time after 6 years of faithful service. I will never use another coffee maker brand other than Bunn. — The best feature of our Bunn is that within 3 minutes there is a whole pot of fresh, tasty coffee ready for me. The temperature of the water along with the time it takes the water to travel thru the grounds is perfectly synced to brew the best tasting coffee. — Bunn coffee makers are also easy to maintain. — Kudos to Bunn and their quality Coffee...

Things happen that you have no controll over that affect that score negatively and it takes years to get them off.  But the credit score doesn't seem to change much if at  all when these negative marks are proved irronious and "removed". — It should not cost me $1300.00 a year to insure two cars and a house.  I have checked around and Progressive actually has the best deal for me. I have only ever filed one claim for glass repair in all the years I have been with Progressive and my rates did not go up after the claim.  I have...

It is a bit humbling though when I get the answer wrong and the kids on the show all get it right. I sometimes find myself jeering the contestants as they play. Sometimes I wonder where they find these people because it seems obvious that school was not something they aspierd to do well at. — There is the occasion that they have a really well rounded contestant and I will cheer them on and try to help them by shouting the correct answer. I feel much more entertained by this type of contestant than the goofballs that majored in towel...
