Excellent Product And Value

DeLonghi DCF210TTC Complete Frontal Access 10-Cup Drip Coffeemaker

Customer Reviewer and Rating: Design Diva - 5 Stars
Searched high and low for a thermal carafe coffee maker with good reviews. Seemed no matter what model or price, at least 1/3 of respondents hated the thing. So, I went for the value priced one and it was a good 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 easy to pour the water in with the front load and we all love the aroma button for a more full flavored pot of coffee. It looks great and functions beautifully, if your hand is too big to get inside the carafe to scrub the coffee residue out, get a brush. What's the big deal? Highly recommend.

Not Your Father's Coffee Maker

Delonghi 10 Cup Thermal Coffee Maker Reviews

Customer Reviewer and Rating: Keith Barber- 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 big deal. Some have reported not getting the carafe properly seated, thus allowing the freshly brewed coffee to spill all over the place. I have trouble imagining how that could happen and even more trouble 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 big deal, and nothing different from any other manufacturer. Frankly, I don't know of any normal person who actually uses demi tasse cups any more. That was a standard serving 100 years ago, but not today.

Front Load - Great Idea

Best 10 Cup Coffee Maker

Customer Reviewer and Rating: Mossman - 4 Stars
My boyfriend and I have had this coffee maker for about 2 months and it's been great. 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 gross. Front load is a great idea. 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 put water and coffee refill in without moving the pot.
