About - DeLonghi DCF2210TTC
The DeLonghi DCF2210TTC is part of the coffeemaker test program at Consumer Reports. In our lab tests, drip coffeemaker models like the DCF2210TTC are rated on multiple criteria, such as those listed below. Brew performance: The ability to reach 195° to 205° F for five or six minutes, the industry standard for optimal brewing. Convenience: Reflects ease of filling the reservoir, placing the filter, gauging the amount of coffee remaining, and cleaning up. It also reflects how clear we judged the controls. Carafe handling: Covers handle comfort, tendency to drip while pouring, balance of a full carafe, and how easy it was to empty the last liquid. Models with no score here brew into single-serve cups or are brew-and-dispense models. The latter hold the coffee in a tank; you fill your cup by pressing it against the dispenser lever.

Comment:

Nothing is great. Most serious complaint is that dry grounds are found in filter at end of brew cycle -- waste of my good coffee! Clean indicator is on a timer, can't reset it -- mine does not need cleaning, I only use filtered water to begin with. Minor complaint that clock is 24-hour device without option.

How long have you owned it:

One-to-three months

Bottom Line

No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
