Not a traditional coffee maker

The Delonghi DCF210TTC is a very well built 10 cup coffee maker with some great features that make it quite a bit different than a traditional drip machine. It comes with a thermal carafe so there is no burner or warming plate underneath it. I like this because the coffee will not get a bitter flavor from the constant heat source but likewise it probably won't be as hot as some people like. I really don't need it real hot so I like the thermal design better. The carafe is designed in such a way that it will allow you to pour into your cup but won't let any heat escape.

Some other reviews I found stated that it was hard to get the pot to seat properly and the coffee would spill out all over the machine. I'm not sure how this would happen and I've never had any issues with this. I would think that anybody would just make sure everything is seated fully to avoid a huge mess. That's something that I always do before I even start brewing.

The coffee tastes great and I really like the way it brews. I find the overall machine is easy to use but the instructions that came with it weren't very good. I had to learn how to brew the coffee to my liking and this did take a few runs. This is the reason that I can only give it a 4 star rating. Even though most operations are intuitive they really could do a better job with the instructions.

Overall I like this 10 cup coffee maker. It is reasonably easy to use and the quality of the brewed coffee is very high. I do recommend it and would buy it again.
