Bonavita's BV1900TS brews excellent coffee for less (pictures)

Despite its compact size and modest design, the Bonavita BV1900TS has the right stuff to brew superb drip coffee.

A simple design with few actual parts means the BV1900TS is a snap to clean.

With a wide mouth for the water tank, adding H2O to the machine is easy as well.

The Bonavita BV1900TS comes with a thermal carafe and two lids, one to pour with and one to use for brewing coffee.

The brew basket accepts flat-bottom paper filters, which Bonavita says helps for even coffee extraction.

There's only one on-off switch that starts and stops the brewing process. You also use it to activate the machine's preinfusion mode.
