Title: Good to Bad
Review: DeLonghi Esclusivo DCM485 10-Cup Thermal Carafe and Coffeemaker, Brushed Stainless SteelWe purchased our first DeLonghi DCM485 a couple years ago. Loved it. When it failed we tried to get it repaired. We found the same as others no parts for versions made in the Peoples Republic of China. We decided to buy a replacement. After looking in all the right stores we found that no one was carrying this version (Strike 1). Went to the internet and read the mixed reviews and bought it anyway (Strike 2). Received the coffe pot and immediately cleaned and set it up. First pot we had coffee and grounds all over the counter the same as the reviews (strike 3). I took changed out parts with the old coffee maker in an effort to figure out what had changed with no luck. We have contiued to try different things and have settled into cleaning up the mess every other pot of coffee. This morning we gave up and decided to buy a different brand.
