Large Coffee Makers
The first step in finding the best places to buy a large coffee maker is to determine what size pot or urn you need. For instance if you want a large coffee maker to serve at gathering of family and friends, a 30 cup model may be large enough. Likewise, if the group is large, it is possible to purchase a model that will make up to 100 cups of coffee at a time.
Retail Outlets
Many retail outlets such as Target and Wal-Mart carry 22 to 30 cup coffee makers in their stores. Other stores, such as specialized kitchen outfitters and restaurant supply stores offer coffee pots in a wide variety of sizes.
Go Online
There are a number of online retailers, such as Twin Supply Inc. and Amazon, that sell large coffee pots. Look for retailers that offer a money back guarantee and have secure servers available for orders. If you are uncomfortable using your credit or debit card online, look for retailers that accept PayPal or Google Checkout. Yahoo Stores also do not send card information to the retailer.
Buy Used
Often the best deal on large coffee pots is to buy a used model. Many times, the coffee pot has been used only once for a special occasion and then put back into the box and stored away. Look for used pots and urns at local garage sales, flee markets and thrift shops. Always ask to plug the appliance into an outlet to insure that the coffee maker heats up properly.
Buy Used Online
EBay is the first place to look online for new and used coffee pots at bargain prices. If what you are looking for isn't available, consider placing an ad on your local Craiglist.com or other online classified websites. Many local television stations have classified ads where you can list what you need and other station viewers can respond to the ad.
