Product Description

Amazon.com Review

If you love your coffee, you're going to want this DeLonghi CC80 Deluxe Coffee Cappuccino Machine on your kitchen counter in the mornings. It makes up to 10 cups of coffee so you can have a cup or two while getting ready for work, then pour the rest in a thermos for later. The gold-tone coffee filter and the built-in water filter guarantee the pure flavor of your gourmet coffee shines through. And, when you're in the mood for a little frothed milk--whether it's in your coffee or your hot chocolate--the easy-froth dispenser automatically froths milk for up to 10 "American-style" cappuccinos at once, right into your coffee cup and without any extra steps. For safety's sake, the sealed steam cap keeps you from burning your fingers. This coffee machine also comes with a drip-interrupt feature, nonstick warming plate, and water level indicator, but it does not include a programmable timer. The 1-3/4-cup milk reservoir and drip tray are removable and dishwasher-safe. --Doree Armstrong

4.0 out of 5 stars convenient and well-priced, June 12, 2000

I was surprised at how well the coffee/espresso/cappucino machine worked, considering its relatively low price. Drip-stop is great when you're in a rush for your first cup of joe. The machine is easy to clean with the dishwasher-safe parts. The milk frother has tremendous capacity too. I definitely recommend this one.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best I've had, April 18, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: DeLonghi CC80 Deluxe Coffee Cappuccino Machine (Kitchen)

I am so pleased with my purchase of this coffee maker. I spent weeks shopping. I originally ended up with the Capresso 12-cup drip maker as well as their burr grinder. I was dissatisfied with both. The coffee maker's drip stop did not work. The water got clogged in the filter basket. It was as if the filter plugged up. I tried a very course grind as well as paper filters. It still happened. The burr grinder was an absolute waste of time. I was attracted to the Delongi machine when a friend told me she was pleased with hers. The gold filter and the filter basket are great in terms of their quality (in comparrison to the Capresso) and the drip stop works everytime. In addition, the milk steamer is wonderful! By the way, the coffee quality is superb. I use 2 tablespoons per every 6-oz of grounds. I went back to my Krups grinder. What a breeze!

I confess that I had some second thoughts before my machine arrived--wondering whether I had made a mistake by not ordering a machine which included an espresso maker. (I love a strong, espresso-based cappuccino.) I was absolutely amazed with my first cappuccino--I honestly could not tell that it was coffee-based! I used my favorite dark roast, brewed the recommended one scoop per 6 ounce cup of water, and the result was as hearty a cappuccino as I've ever had! My carafe pours perfectly, and while a little more room under the frother would be nice, I have no trouble dispensing frothed milk directly into a 4-inch high mug. (I do not use the extra splash guard for the end of the frother, and I leave a little room at the top of my mug so I can tilt it a very slight amount as I take it out from under the frother.) I've had no trouble with the milk splashing, but I do use two-percent which probably doesn't froth as much. My only real complaint was with the instructions, not the machine. I had some questions that were not answered anywhere, and the instructions for cleaning the machine prior to first use were poorly located at the end rather than the beginning of the booklet (under a "warning" section). I looked through the entire instructions twice without locating them. This machine does not have the auto timer mentioned by one reviewer--apparently their machine is the CC100 model, which is basically the same machine with some extra electronics. If you are considering this machine, you may find the reviews on the CC100 helpful as well. While I'm having a little trouble adjusting to the size of this machine after several years of using a tiny 4-cup coffee maker, I'm looking forward to enjoying many cups of great cappuccino with it! Definitely a great product!
