Absolutely wonderful
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
I’ve gone through many, many coffeemakers in my life. Granted, I’m not into spending hundreds of dollars on a coffeemaker, but they were still a excellent cross section of quality brands. This is by far the best coffeemaker I have ever bought. I don’t care for the glass carafe type any more – they break too easily, plus the coffee gets bitter towards the end as the liquid evaporates. On the other hand, the thermal carafe type doesn’t necessarily keep the coffee piping hot, but that’s okay – it’s hot enough for the time it takes us to drink it. This one certainly keeps the coffee hotter than the last one we had.
The frontal access on this particular model is wonderful, since we have it sitting under a cabinet. No more pulling it out to fill it up with water. All parts of this coffeemaker feel very solid, especially the carafe which also has a really nice handle. And the one thing we absolutely like about it is the “Aroma” button. It brews the coffee more slowly, dripping the water, and therefore takes somewhat longer to brew. But it’s worth the wait – the coffee tastes absolutely wonderful. Without a doubt, the best-tasting coffee I’ve had from any coffeemaker so far, nice and smooth.
Just a FANTASTIC coffemaker
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
This model replaced our older 8 cup DeLonghi model, that could no longer “reckon” about how to make coffee. The newer DeLonghi 10 cup model is a wonderful replacement.The frontal access for filling is a much needed improvement. I no longer spill water all over the counter while filling it. We are very impressed with this model.
Not Hot
Rating:2 out of 5 stars
My prior DeLonghi coffee maker lasted ten years and would still be working if I could find a replacement pot. This new model was bulky to load with the swing basket that had to swing fully out to fill up. The water leaked after three uses. In addition there was no way to keep the coffee hot. The hot plate turned off after the coffee brewed relying on the metal carafe to keep it warm. It didn’t. Very sad this wasn’t the quality I expected.
Terrible choice – no redeeming factors
Rating:1 out of 5 stars
It’s only about three months ancient and I have to agree with J. Vivarelli. I wanted to get something unique, having tried all of the name brands over the years. I had never heard of DeLonghi. The coffee from day one has been cold. The first cup after brewing is tolerable but no where near anyone’s definition of hot. In addition, after brewing I find that there is still 4 to 6 cups of water remaining in the machine and have to push the “brew” button at least two more times. I’ve tried preheating the carafe by flushing it with hot water (which tends to waste the savings I thought it might give me over the always hot Bunn) prior to brewing but the coffee just cools it down. This is not a manufacturing fault – the machine was engineered to be simpler to prepare using the front load but then the engineers went home. The drip comes from one small hole into the side of the coffee basket – other brands “shower” the coffee thereby wringing the flavor out of the grounds. I’ve wasted $65 and will now call that a lesson and spend another $100 for a decent coffeemaker – if I can find one!
Revised Review due to brilliant customer support from DeLonghi
Rating:3 out of 5 stars
I had rated this coffeemaker with a 1 star because the plastic top part and handle of the carafe had seperated after less than six months of use. I am uping the rating to 3 star because of the brilliant customer support from DeLonghi. I made a phone call to customer support and the carafe was replaced without question and at no charge for the carafe or shipping. I did not have to return the broken carafe. The replacement carafe arrived 4 days after I called DeLonghi. The customer support was brilliant.
Grounds and lots of them
Rating:2 out of 5 stars
I bought this as a present for my husband who is the coffee drinker because it had a gold filter basket and thought it was the best. My husband used it once and went back to the ancient coffee pot. He was miserable he had grounds in his cup. The coffee pot is now sitting in the garage back in its original box. I have thought about throwing it out.
The key here is not to use finely ground coffee. Where do you get heavier ground coffee?
Not your father’s coffee maker
Rating:4 out of 5 stars
Here is a well-made intelligently-designed coffee maker that works well, has some outstanding features, but has some significant differences from common automatic drip machines. Brewing into a thermal carafe with no burner or warming plate below the carafe means the coffee will not get the bitter taste of being kept hot by continuing to cook it. But, it also will probably not be quite as hot as some people would find ideal. It’s a compromise and involves personal preference. For me, the coffee is plenty hot and remains at a pleasant drinking temperature for well over an hour.
The way the carafe and its lid have to be designed to keep the steam from escaping and thus keep the coffee warm means it will pour into your cup a bit more slowly than from an ordinary carafe. To me, that’s not a huge deal.
Some have reported not getting the carafe properly seated, thus allowing the freshly brewed coffee to spill all over the place. I have distress imagining how that could happen and even more distress imagining how anyone could let it happen more than once. I would expect any rational person, after having such a mess to clean up once, would make certain to seat the carafe correctly in the future. It’s not rocket science.
There have been some comments by others that rating this as a 10-cup coffee maker is misleading. All manufacturers rate coffee maker capacity in terms of 5-ounce cups, demi tasse cups, if you will. I ordinarily use a 10-ounce mug. So being aware of this, I govern myself accordingly. No huge deal, and nothing different from any other manufacturer. Frankly, I don’t know of any normal person who really uses demi tasse cups any more. That was a standard serving 100 years ago, but not today.
The instructions provided by DeLonghi are somewhat lacking and it doesn’t help that they combine the instructions for several different models with different features into a single booklet, printed in several languages. Not as helpful as it could be. That said, most of the operation is honestly intuitive. It is a small bizarre that the clock shows the hour from midnight to 10:00 a.m. as “0.” I guess that’s a European standard, but find it weird on a clock that displays a.m. and p.m. rather than a 24-hour clock. That’s just a small wierd to me, but does not diminish my enjoyment of this coffee maker.
Operation is reasonably simple and the quality of the brewed coffee is outstanding. I am well satisfied and do recommend this machine.

I wasn’t pleased with the performance of this coffee maker……it did not make hot enough coffee….with the thermal carafe you had to place hot water in it before you made coffee or else you had luke-warm coffee…..
Front Load – Fantastic Thought
Rating:4 out of 5 stars
Front load is a fantastic thought. I agree with other reviewers that the coffee could be hotter for longer time, but that doesn’t bother me. I’d rater not have it piping hot anyway. Coffee stays hot for about 2 hours, but not boiling hot. I like the front load so that pot can sit in back of counter under the top cabinets, and still place water and coffee refill in without moving the pot.
Want to bring down to two stars after two months
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
Rated at 5 after one month. But, after two months:
We now only make coffee on the weekends though we like having it waiting on us every morning. Why? Because this machine no longer brews the entire pot at once. It makes 1/8 to 1/4 of a pot and you have to press start again, and repeat, and repeat, until it finally brews the whole thing.
I haven’t thrown it away yet because I really haven’t had time to look at it to see if something is sticking or moving incorrect somewhere to set it off but, regardless, a quality product doesn’t flake out like this in the small time we’ve had it
poor quality and terrible brew
Rating:2 out of 5 stars
We ordered in Sept 08 and waited 2 months till this new model came out. Arrived in Nov. leaked and made a mess on counters. Husband despised it! We requested a replacement and Amazon sent it. ( Amazon does a excellent job for customers with problems) Replacement leaked and did not brew hot enough for excellent coffee taste. Back to our Cuisinart, always hot, excellent and never leaks! Only pro…. we did like the streamlined fit/look of this coffee maker. We like excellent coffee MORE!
Brilliant Coffee Maker
Rating:4 out of 5 stars
My boyfriend and I have had this coffee maker for about 2 months and it’s been fantastic. The design is very appealing. The front load is unique. The coffee brewed is very tasty! The only reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 is because I wish the coffee stayed warmer longer. If you drink your coffee within a couple of hours you’re safe. I get up about 2 hours before my boyfriend and by the time he’s on his 2nd cup it’s only warm. And warm coffee is just yucky.
Brilliant product and value
Rating:4 out of 5 stars
Searched high and low for a thermal carafe coffee maker with excellent reviews. Seemed no matter what model or price, at least 1/3 of respondents despised the thing. So, I went for the value priced one and it was a excellent choice. It did leak the first two times as I was running the water through it but not once since. Preheating the carafe really helps keep the coffee warm. It’s so simple to pour the water in with the front load and we all like the aroma button for a more full flavored pot of coffee. It looks fantastic and functions perfectly, if your hand is too huge to get inside the carafe to scrub the coffee residue out, get a brush. What’s the huge deal? Highly recommend.
Fantastic Product

Extremely pleased with this coffee maker. Like the design, ease of filling, cleaning, even pouring the coffee is a pleasure due to the design of the pot and it makes agreat cup of coffee!
REAL DISAPPOINTMENT
Rating:1 out of 5 stars
WHAT A DISSAPPOINTMENT AND A WASTE OF MONEY IN A COFFMAKER WITH A THERMAL CARAFE. THE FRONTAL ACCESS IS WONDERFUL BUT THE MAKER DOES NOT MAKE HOT COFFEE. THEREFORE,THE CARAFE DOES NOT KEEP THE COFFEE WARM LONG SINCE IS DOES NOT BREW HOT. IF YOU DO NOT HAVE THE CARAFE INSERTED ALL THE WAY CORRECTLY, THE COFFEE DRIPS ALL OVER THE OUTSIDE OF THE POT AND MAKER. I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS TO ANYONE WHO LIKES A EXCELLENT HOT CUP OF COFFEE. ALSO, THE CARAFE LIP IS TERRIBBLE TO POUR FROM. UNFORTUNATELY, I DID NOT KEEP THE ORIGINAL BOX FROM AMAZON, THEREFORE I AM STUCK WITH IT ON MY BASEMENT SHELF OR THE TRASH.
