Goodful cold brew coffee maker vs Coffee Bear. Two comparatively equal brewers. Both, however, have an equally better nemesis.

Overall Verdict
The Goodful is a large jug-type 72 oz brewer that brews and stands in a refrigerator door bin. It’s an all-plastic design using an immersion nylon filter. The screw-on handle lid has an inner core that twists to pour or completely unscrews to remove the filter. A key feature is its watertight design allowing it to lay on its side after the filter is decanted.
The 44 oz Coffee Bear is quite similar though smaller and the brew quality is much the same. The Coffee Bear is heavier because the brew jug is made of glass. The airtight lid also twists to pour but you cannot lay it on its side.
The Coffee Bear is more suited to a small refrigerator but its silicone base often needs to come off to fit a smaller door bin. The Coffee Gator, almost identical to the Coffee Bear, is a much better value proposition. Likewise, the Tekeya, compared to the Goodful, is a much better choice both for design quality and brew strength.
