Amazon.com Review
DeLonghi has been making quality products in Italy since 1902. This automatic drip coffeemaker, for instance, combines all the features, performance, and style that discerning customers look for. Brew up to eight cups of coffee for friendly gatherings. The pause-and-serve feature allows you to pour in the middle of a brewing cycle so you don't have to wait. Set the programmable 24-hour timer and it greets you in the morning with the invigorating aroma of a fresh pot--the shiny thermal carafe maintains the temperature for a long time. And with the swing-away basket and dishwasher-safe filter, even frequent use won't dull the taste of your coffee. --Otts Bolisay

 Disappointing April 16, 2004

Constantly overflowing with coffee all over the counter. Good coffee, but can't risk the spill over anymore.
 Good coffee, terrible coffee maker March 13, 2004

While this pot made good coffee for awhile, the pot itself is a piece of garbage. We spend a fair amount of money for it, and all of the problems the other reviews experienced we ran into. The No. 2 filters are too small and the No. 4's are too large. If the coffee is too fine, the water spilled all over the place. Over time the lid began to leak, and the coffee doesn't stay hot.
 I Haven't Had 1 Problem BUT use paper towel folded filter February 18, 2003

I am a huge coffee drinker and this is another machine I put to daily use. I start off each morning with it because I want an entire pot of coffee that I can have sitting right next to me at my computer station. I drink the whole thing during the morning and it is nice and hot the entire time. Scalding, no, hot, yes. One trick I do with all coffeemakers is use a paper towel instead of a conventional filter. I fold the paper towel over on top and pat it down so that there is no way the top of the filter can intefere with the mechanics of the coffee maker. I used to have problems with these coffee machines until I started making my own filters with the folded over tops. I suspect that other people might improve their odds with coffee makers by doing the same. It is also cheaper than filters and takes about 10 seconds to do. This coffee maker overflowed on me once before I implemented my paper towel trick and then after that was perfect. I had the exact same experience with the cuisinart coffee machine for 2 commuter cups that I previously reviewed. I really think there is more of a problem with bad coffee filters than with bad coffee makers.
Bad Carafe, electronics not sealed November 20, 2002

I bought this for my wife for Christmas last year and the first time we used the wrong filters, the electronics got soaked and it stopped working. The insulated carafe did not keep the coffee warm for long. The carafe then started leaking. Due to expansion and contraction of the plastic parts, the bottom becomes loose, and the carafe starts leaking into the inner shell. ....
I disagree with reviews I read here. October 14, 2002

I bought a DeLonghi thermal carafe drip coffeemaker..DC77TC.. last weekend and I love it. Some coffee was left in the pot for 8 hours without additional heating. The coffee was still warm enough to drink...and it remained fresh since it was only heated when brewed. Obviously, the coffee was hot enough, but coffee in drip makers only heats to a max 160 degrees in the hottest automatic drip maker. The people who complained must have been accustomed to a manual drip, regular percolator or institutional machine. This product performed as I expected for what it is, but it is not an institutional machine and, therefore, will not perform like one...and it's nowhere near the same cost as an institutional machine.
