DeLonghi 12-Cup Digital Programmable Drip Coffeemakers Review

At this price level, most coffee makers are terrible.This Delonghi model seems to be one of the rare exceptions.I've had it for over a week now and I'm very pleased with it.

The Good:

-Well designed carafe.When you pour a cup of coffee, it doesn't spill everywhere like some makers I've used in the past.Additionally, it's proven easy to clean

-Fairly solid design.While not bullet proof, the maker as a whole seems sturdy, with one small exception (see below)

-The "Aroma" setting is AWESOME.I've owned many coffee makers in the past and it always takes quite a bit of grounds to brew a pot that's strong enough for me (I like my coffee almost espresso strength).Not with the Delonghi!just put in the grounds, pour in the water, hit "start", then hit the "aroma" button and in 15 minutes you've got yourself coffee that's (at least) twice as strong as coffee from a regular maker

The Bad:

There are only two problems I've had with this maker (and I must stress that they are very MINOR)

-When fully open, the tray for the filter does not quite clear the top of the maker.As a result, you have to tilt the filter and mess with it a bit to get it free of the machine.Additionally, the filter is sometimes a little tricky to get back in, but once you figure out the trick to it it's a bit easier

-The spring that holds the "pause and serve" lever in place seems cheap and looks like it would be easy to break (it hasn't broken yet, so this is just an assumption).This isn't a really big issue for me as I never use this feature, but I know that some people do.On the plus side, the spring is easily accessible, so if it ever did break or come loose, then it would probably be easy to put it back in or replace altogether

Despite these minor problems, the Delonghi coffee maker performs like a champ (indeed good enough to still earn a 5 star rating in my eyes).The good far outweighs the bad, and I'd recommend this maker to anyone who just wants a simple, well-made machine for a decent price.
