Saeco TDCM-CC Renaissance Coffee Maker Review

Wed, 18 Nov 2009 14:58:52 +0000

Saeco TDCM-CC Renaissance is an automatic 8-cup drip coffeemaker with programmable timer. This coffee machine features a thermal-insulated carafe, pause-and-serve function, 40-ounce water tank, safety auto shut-off, digital display and cord storage.

Saeco TDCM-CC Specifications:

Color: Black
Capacity: 8 cups
Height: 14.5 inches
Length: 8.25 inches
Depth: 12 inches
Weight: 15 lbs.
Warranty: 1-year limited

With its sleek look and durable steel-body construction, the Saeco TDCM-CC Renaissance provides an array of convenient features. The unit brews coffee directly into its 40-ounce stainless-steel and carbon fiber carafe by way of the specially designed carafe lid, effectively sealing in the heat and ensuring optimal flavor.

In addition, the carafe is thermal insulated, providing five hours of heat retention without the concern of burnt-tasting coffee. Other highlights include a convenient top-filling water tank and top-loading filter basket and a blue power indicator light. For safety, the coffeemaker shuts off automatically when brewing is complete, and its cord stores neatly for tidy countertops.

The coffeemaker measures 12 by 8-1/4 by 14-1/2 inches and carries a one-year parts-and-labor warranty.

The Saeco TDCM-CC Renaissance only has a few customer reviews. This brand might not be that popular to coffee machine lovers yet. One customer was very satisfied and recommends this machine because it is easy to clean and most importantly – makes great tasting coffee.

No burnt taste on your coffee and the coffee stays warm for several hours. But just like the other coffee machines, doesn’t make 8 cups.

Customers also liked the programmable timer and nice blue LED lights. The machine alerts you when brewing is done. No water filter to replace and monitor, as well.

What customers didn’t like was the lid design of the Saeco Renaissance. Coffee spills if the lid is not perfectly aligned with the carafe. The carafe is heavy and difficult to clean. The coffee machine is also big and bulky and takes up a lot of counter space in the kitchen.

Saeco TDCM-CC at a glance…

Pros:

Easy to use
Beautiful design
Programmable timer
Makes excellent coffee

Cons:

Not that durable
Barely makes 8 cups
Big and bulky

If you like waking up to a cup of good coffee, this coffeemaker is right for you. Enjoy the programmable timer and maximize your coffee making experience.
