Amazon.com Product Description
Along with its 12-cup capacity, this drip coffeemaker features a digital programmable timer with two-hour automatic shut-off. Setting the timer allows for waking up to the aroma of freshly brewed coffee, or for having coffee ready--without getting up from the table--to serve with dessert. The unit's showerhead design helps extract coffee's full natural flavor by allowing water to completely saturate all coffee grounds. In addition, its aroma button activates a unique brewing process that enhances the flavor and aroma of coffee. To achieve this full-bodied flavor, the coffeemaker advances through several continuous cycles that release water into the filter basket in 30-second intervals. This special time-released process saturates grounds a little at a time to extract the best flavor and aroma from coffee.
The coffeemaker also provides a pause-and-serve function for pouring a cup midbrew, and its non-stick warming plate keeps coffee hot after brewing and makes cleanup a breeze. The included glass carafe offers measurement markings, a generous cool-touch handle, and a drip-free spout for graceful serving. Other highlights include simple push-button controls, a swing-open filter basket with a permanent gold-tone filter, a convenient water-level indicator, and cord storage to keep countertops tidy. Designed and engineered in Italy, the 12-cup coffeemaker measures 8-8/9 by 10-8/9 by 14-2/5 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty.

Just about perfect coffee for very little $$$5
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.
coffe maker5
This is a great coffee maker - my last one lasted over a year with heavy use. It makes good coffee and the auto shutoff is nice - good buy
Great coffee5
I had read a few not favorable reviews about this coffeemaker, but decided to buy it and try it anyway. I'm so glad I did. It makes great coffee and has all the bells and whistles I need. Plus it is not expensive! I like the option to have a slower drip for deeper coffee flavor. The carafe doesn't drip and I like the design of the maker and the carafe. I very much like that it comes with the gold filter and that it has the automatic start and shut-off functions. This machine makes much better coffee than any of the other drip machines I have owned. And I do love a good cup of coffee.
