VINTAGE Sunbeam Vista Fully Automatic Coffee Percolator – 1970s Floral Glass Percolator – Removable Easy-Clean Carafe

A bright and cheerful Sunbeam Vista Fully Automatic Percolator, circa early 1970s — complete with its original glass carafe decorated in daisy-pattern gold and tan florals. This design marked a new era for Sunbeam: a sleeker, modular take on the classic Coffeemaster, made for the harvest-hued kitchens of the 1970s.
☕ Special Feature — Easy Clean Design
One of the Vista’s most thoughtful innovations is its removable glass carafe system. With the flick of a small lever on the handle, the entire glass vessel separates cleanly from the heating base and upright column — making it easy to wash, rinse, and dry without worrying about electrical parts.
