Not IDIOT proof but... Great coffee.

byonly1harpo Aug 13, 2007
6 Helpfuls 7 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Looks good. Great coffee. Easy to use and clean.
Cons Expensive. Coffee could brew warmer.
Recommended it? Yes

We have had this coffee maker for a year. It does require an attentive user - the carafe lid must be in the right position both for brewing and for pouring. Positions are clearly marked and work well. Show me a coffee maker that doesn't overflow if not emptied first or carafe not placed properly... Read full review »

Expensive and Worthless Garbage

byharryo1949 Mar 17, 2007
6 Helpfuls 7 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros None, this thing is garbage.
Cons Great for covering counter/floors with luke warm coffee. Only $149.00 at Starbucks.
Recommended it? No

Purchased at Starbucks, Nothing but leaks and flooding since purchase. Cannot interrupt brewing cycle to pour a cup, you get additional flood of coffee on counter or floor. Read full review »

No more buying coffee makers from Starbucks!!!

bynobuuks Dec 15, 2007
5 Helpfuls 6 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Makes a decent cup as long as it works.
Cons Poorly designed program buttons, overflow problem, it dies in about a year.
Recommended it? No

I'm in the same boat as the rest of the reviewers here! Had to replace my Aroma Grande, due to a recall, with the DeLonghi DCM485. All seemed to be good for about a year, other than one overflow and the stupid programming buttons. Then one morning I got everything set up for a brew and I realized... Read full review »

When will Starbucks start losing customers

bydwyejj Nov 18, 2007
5 Helpfuls 6 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros ZERO
Cons Not hot enough, hard to pour, not reliable
Recommended it? No

This along with the other Starbucks Barista coffee makers it replaced are very poor designs. Obviously nobody has tested these machines in any type of product qualification process.

Starbucks replaced my defective Barista units, but their customer service has disappeared when it comes to... Read full review »

Looks better that the coffee tastes

bycergeg Mar 30, 2006
5 Helpfuls 6 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Looks nice. Display is luminecent blue. Durable stainless steel. Water filter.
Cons low brewing temp and safety issue because heater stays on after water runs thru unit
Recommended it? No

Traded in a leaking Barista 4 cup for this replacement coffee maker at Starbucks. This model looks great but has two major faults. 1) brewing twmp of water is 160 and 2) does not shutoff after water runs thru unit (safety issue).
I called Delonghi customer service and was told it is designed... Read full review »

Do not purchase this coffee maker!

bykatespak Dec 3, 2007
4 Helpfuls 5 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Looks good.
Cons Expensive, malfunctions.
Recommended it? No

We purchased this coffeemaker from Starbucks upon the recommendation of the Barista person. I loved the idea of the thermal carafe and thought that Starbucks' endorsement of the product would indicate that this was a good coffee maker. NOT! From the beginning there were problems with leakage. I was... Read full review »

Created to die young

Pros reusable gold filter, even hot water dispersing
Cons breaks after 2 years and company won't even sell you the parts to fix it!!!
Recommended it? No

Yesterday my Delonghi was working fine and aside from an annoying drip in the carafe when one pours coffee too quickly, I loved this machine.

However this morning the machine would not work, the lights are on and it appears to be fine, but it does not brew. I called the Delonghi company... Read full review »

Premature Death

bytinascar Jul 4, 2007
4 Helpfuls 5 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Makes good coffee, easy to clean, simple design
Cons Annoying blinking light, cumbersome clock feature, drippy carafe, slow brew time
Recommended it? No

We bought this coffeemaker 18 months ago after our Starbucks 12-Cup Barista died after just one year. Starbucks was nice enough to give us the DeLonghi as a trade in for the Barista. Otherwise, we would have paid $159 for it.

The carafe drips, unless you line up the cap EXACTLY right,... Read full review »

Great coffee maker

4 Helpfuls 5 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Looks great, brews quietly, makes great coffee.
Cons It could brew a little faster
Recommended it? Yes

I have had no problems with this coffee maker. I didn't buy it, I am a soldier deployed to Iraq and this coffee maker was a gift from Starbucks. I have been using it for 10 months and the only time it has over flowed is when I forgot to make sure it was empty before brewing a new pot. I have never... Read full review »

overflow problem

byjaskenpond Nov 7, 2006
7 Helpfuls 8 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros nice looking
Cons overflows hard to pour a cup of coffee without going all over the place
Recommended it? No

I have never had a coffee pot so poorly designed! I have to hold pressure in on the pot all during the brew cycle, for it not to overflow. Do they even test these products before they mass produce them? My last DeLonghi for sure. Read full review »
