Yes, bought this last year and we have place at 8800 feet in Co. Got it & it works great. Ended up taking home to Tulsa and got a Bonavita to leave in Co.. But this is a beautiful machine & great, fast coffee. Highly recommend.

Yes. Seattle coffee gear sells replacement parts on line. Their website goes by that name plus dot com. edited to add- I just did a quick check and it looks like just about every site I looked at, including Technivorm's, is sold out. Price is in the $20-$25 range.

I don't know, but Technivorm has a pretty extensive website showing all their models. We have the Technivorm "club line", stainless with the glass carafe and were are thoroughly pleased. We've had it about a year now. Makes excellent coffee.

Did you try it out? I have the same question and the same coffee maker? Thank you

Instead of using this just add a packet of Nescafe or some other instant pack. They actually have more caffeine, do make the coffee stronger tasting and are fairly inexpensive. You can get Nescafe packets on the Moon they are so common.

I top off the hopper every time before I brew a pot and rarely get low. I make full strength coffee and I can get two full pots and still have a few beans left in the hopper.

Not yet,, I purchased for a home in Mexico where there are frequent power outages,, so I figured at least this way I could always have my coffee,, Takes a few more minutes to grind , but since I use a French press I have to wait for the water to boil anyways,, gets a little blood flowing,,I like it !

I'm about 1200 feet above sea level, works fine but don't fill past the 8 cups+ marker or it'll overflow the filter. I have the BXB so not sure why Amazon asked me to answer this.

I'm not using at a high altitude but you should not have any problems. Have you tried talking to Zojirushi customer service at all?

Yes, it works well in high altitudes, we live above 5800 feet and it works like a champ! i have it hooked up to a five gallon propane tank that I placed outside the house, just put a small hole through the wall or floor, installed a shutoff valve and used a hose from a propane bbq. Works wonderfully.

I haven't, but I can't see why not, provived you have the height clearance above your coffeemaker.

Yes, I live at an elevation of 5,280 ft. It works great for me...just brewed some iced tea up yesterday!

Thanks JJLet me know how you like the A10.Now the question is, how are you grinding your beans? I have a Baratza Vario and I am also very happy with it. Occasionally grinds will stick in the basket due to static, but overall pretty rock solid. They have the new Vario that doses by weight; wish I had it. When I use my Chemex or Hario pour overs, I weigh out the beans and water. If you haven't tried a pour over, it's an inexpensive investment which brews excellent coffee.Happy brewing my friend...

I am in a low altitude area and have not had any issues. If you want a more definitive answer, call Bunn customer service at 217-529-6601. When you talk to a representative, it's not a bad idea to request the optional sprayer head, which slows down the water flow just a touch during the brewing process. This will eliminate any possible overflow that may lead to grounds getting into the pot of coffee, should you use a fine ground. It also makes for a better brew of tea. They usually send it at no charge. Hope this helps.

I got one about two years ago. It continues to brew great coffee since day one. There was one time the coffee did not come out right -- weak coffee. Upon investigation -- we forgot to clean the chute. It was clogged big time. Since then we clean the chute more regularly. We love the coffee so much, we brew the coffee several times a day. No problem what so ever other than the one time clogged chute incident.A friend of ours loved our coffeee so much we got one for him as a gift. He has a lot problem with the grind since the first week he got it. To my knowledge he is still having the problem to this day. I got one about two years ago.

I am not sure. At near boiling temperatures at high altitude, if there is a lot suction on the intake side the water might cavitate and prime be lost. This is only my speculation.
