Summary: Fine, Fast, Hot, Small 2008-02-18
Comment: This fine looking little device is the second Delonghi 4-cup coffee maker that I have owned. The first had the dewar flask carafe and no warmer and the coffee wasn't really hot enough. Lots of microwave action for second cups with that one. This one has the glass carafe and a warmer; MUCH Better. It has the permanent filter but I put in a paper filter anyway.
The first lasted nearly three years before the switch failed, more than acceptable for this inexpensive and reliable little unit.
It makes coffee fast and strong and just the right amount for a quick big mug to wake up and another after my morning dog walk. Later mid-morning coffee is managed by making a fresh pot of great tasting coffee (I prefer Community Club Dark Roast).
One has a tendency to grip the carafe handle with ones fingers and rest ones thumb above on the flip-up lid lever (This is similar in sprit to riding the brake in your vehicle). The effect is to raise the lid just enough for the coffee to pour out all around the lip of the carafe and the result is spilled coffee while pouring. Do not do that.
Like all makers with the steal-a-cup feature, if one only partially inserts the carafe then the valve will not open and coffee and grounds will overflow. Do not do that either.
I would recommend it to tho others (I have) and I would buy it again (I did.)

Summary: Too Hot 2007-08-01
Comment: I would not recommend buying this coffee maker. Getting the water into the reservoir is a clumsy feat at best. But worse, when pouring the last third of the hot coffee out of the pot, the lid falls open allowing the steam to scald your knuckles. I wish I could have gotten another Krups 4-cup but they've stopped making them.

Summary: makes good coffee 2007-07-15
Comment: this coffeemaker makes very good coffee but i wish the design was better - the gadget that makes the coffee stop and release just hangs in the back and if you hit it the wrong way it could fall and the opening of the pot is so small to fit your hand in to wash - also you have to hold the pot just right when you pour or it spills

Summary: DON'T BUY THIS COFFEE MAKER!!!!!!! 2007-05-05
Comment: I purchased this coffee maker with birthday money and am extremely disappointed. The average coffee temperature is 160 degrees. This coffee maker ranged from 100-110 degrees, thus lacking the flavor, irregardless
of premium, freshly ground coffee. I contacted both the store where I purchased and the manufacturer and they had the nerve to tell me that's what you get for paying $20.00 for a coffee maker. I have usedMr.Coffee, coffee makers in the past with success, but this was on sale and I THOUGHT the Delonghi brand was a higher class since it is made by Cuisinart.
OBVIOUSLY I WAS WRONG! The only reason I gave it 2 stars is because it does not take up alot of space and came with a insulated carafe.
