BUNN VPR 33200.0000 (12-Cup Pourover Coffee Brewer, 2 Warmers, 120V)
D0 No Radio — No radio at all. It cannot phone home.
The unplug test
You pour a pitcher of water in the top, and hot water sprays over the grounds in the funnel below within seconds -- there is no 'start' step to configure. A toggle switch turns each warmer plate on or off. Unplugging it stops the internal tank heater and the warmers; plugging it back in returns it to exactly the same manual, thermostat-controlled behavior, with nothing to reconfigure and no vendor involved.
Why this tier: BUNN's own Installation & Operating Guide for the VPR-VPS series describes a manually-filled pour-over brewer: the operator pours water in by pitcher, a control thermostat holds tank temperature, and warmers are switched on/off by front-mounted toggle switches. There is no brew-start button, no digital timer, and no programming step in the entire operating procedure -- brewing begins the instant water is poured in. No app, WiFi, or network feature is mentioned anywhere in the manual.

Where to buy
Open questions
- BUNN also sells digital/programmable brewer lines (e.g. ICB, Trifecta with BrewLOGIC); confirm this VPR-VPS manual and part number apply specifically to the analogue-thermostat pourover models and not a digital sibling before treating other BUNN model numbers as equivalent.

Class A is primary (manual, FCC filing, teardown). Class B is corroborated community reporting. Class C is never sufficient alone.

Bunn-O-Matic Corporation's own VPR-VPS Series Installation & Operating Guide: Electrical Requirements section specifies an attached cordset, 120V/15A/60Hz; Coffee Brewing procedure is entirely manual (insert filter, pour grounds, slide funnel in, turn on warmer switch, pour water) with no start button, timer, or digital control referenced anywhere in the 5-page manual; Initial Set-Up references a 'control thermostat' as the only temperature-regulating component. — accessed 2026-09-03 - C https://www.webstaurantstore.com/bunn-33200-0000-vpr-12-cup-pourover-coffee-brewer-with-2-warmers-120v/234332000000.html
