Third-party reviews

What we like about Tefal CM600810

  • The extra-large shower head distributes hot water evenly over the coffee grounds for optimal flavor extraction.
  • The 24-hour programmable timer is easy to set and highly reliable for waking up to fresh coffee.
  • The modern, sleek, and minimalist design with its integrated digital display looks great in kitchens.
  • The 1.25-liter capacity brews a large volume (10 to 15 cups) quickly, making it ideal for families or guests.
  • The anti-drip system works well, allowing users to pour a cup mid-cycle without making a mess on the hot plate.
  • Removable filter holder makes dosing and cleaning hassle-free.

What we don't like about Tefal CM600810

  • The hot plate's automatic shut-off triggers after only 30 minutes, which some users find too short to keep coffee warm.
  • The large digital clock display is overly bright and can illuminate a dark room intensely at night.
  • The measurement markings on the water reservoir do not perfectly align with the markings on the glass carafe.
  • The clock does not have a power backup memory, meaning it must be reset manually after a power outage.

Verdict

The Tefal Smart'n Light CM600810 is a 1,000 W drip coffee maker with a 1.25-litre water tank for up to 15 cups. Its integrated digital display and 24-hour timer work with the Aroma pre-infusion function and extra-large water outlet to support flavour extraction; it also has anti-drip protection, 30-minute keep-warm with automatic safety shut-off, a low-water sensor and a removable washable permanent filter. The supplied carafe is standard glass rather than thermal, paper No. 4 filters must be bought separately if the permanent filter is not used, and there is no automatic descaling programme.
