The need for spatial and spectral filtering in the generation of polarization entanglement is eliminated by combining two coherently-driven type-II spontaneous parametric downconverters. The resulting ultrabright source emits photon pairs that are polarization entangled over the entire spatial cone and spectrum of emission. We detect a flux of $\sim$12 000 polarization-entangled pairs/s per mW of pump power at 90% quantum-interference visibility, and the source can be temperature tuned for 5 nm around frequency degeneracy. The output state is actively controlled by precisely adjusting the relative phase of the two coherent pumps.
