This replaced our DeLonghi DCF212T coffee maker which died after about a year of use. I use high quality ground coffee and distilled water. Many controls to choose from and an easy to set clock. Bought this coffee maker about 2 months ago and simply love it. They both made equally good coffee. I rated this product 5 stars because it makes a really great cup of coffee.
This was the only negative thing I could find.
No complaints with the coffee making ability but the ergonomics could be a little better.
Some had said that paper coffee filters make a better cup of coffee then the gold re-useable filter.
It makes a really good cup of hot coffee.
I had been reading a lot of reviews of coffee makers before making this choice.
The hole where you pour the water in is very small and unless you have a good aim some of the water ends up in the coffee grounds or on the counter.
You have to pour the water into the top and look straight down at the numbered indicator to see the water level and if you are a really short person like my wife (5 feet even) it is very difficult to do.
I found no difference between the two.
My wife and I love the design and how the coffee maker compliments our other kitchen appliances.
Coffee has great flavor from this pot. (It could also be the variety, & grinding it in a burr mill too). Water is easier to add than I thought it would be and I like the carafe temperature control. I have not yet cleaned it but think the self clean will be a great feature.
This coffee pot makes great coffee. We sure wish the controls and markings and clock numerals were a little larger, though (we have old eyes) -- this is the only reason we are rating it 4 stars instead of 5.
