791769491887 Coffee Press, 34-Ounce, Stainless Steel

I bought this back in February so consider this a fair review. Once you learn how to use this, it's so easy. I use the press to make coffee and different loose leaf teas. Not only does it have ease of use but it's a breeze to clean as well. The press is well made and beautiful to look at. All in all, this was worth every penny and I have not one complaint about it. I plan to gift these to others.

If you’re like me and over the plain modern design of literally every French press on the market, this is the one for you! Such a timeless classic design and the thickness of the walls keep my coffee nice and hot for much longer than the glass ones. The quality is excellent and I have no complaints.

Welp, I broke our Bodum French Press for the second time this past Monday 8/15/16, after only having the new Bodum replacement carafe for about 3 months.I guess its not a good idea to use butter as hand lotion, and it's best to leave the juggling of glass kitchen ware to all the creepy circus clowns. With that said, I was not happy and decided then and there I would get the unbreakable SS press if only I could find one that is as irreplaceable as me husband.I searched for hours and read review after review, trying to decide which one would win top prize and be me new coffee mate when, all of a sudden, dun dun dunnn... the heavens opened up and there she is, in all her beautiful shiny glory, me new French Press!I may have shed a tear at the magnificent French Press with the unique handle, lovely shape and perfect finial, all which reminds me of my spiffy Silver Service, on the computer screen at 2am, but I cannot remember.I wasted no time and read the reviews knowing I was getting it anyway and the rest is French Press history.BTW, it's big and the plunger goes all the way to the bottom. I was terrified knowing every morning I would have to put up with the horrible metal on metal, nails on chalkboard sound I so dreaded, but the sound is not what I expected at all, is quite mild, which didn't bother me poor wittle frightened ears.I don't usually drink coffee, as it makes me sleepy, but I can make a mean cup as well as espresso for me husband, who is worth every drop of tasty java.

I'd never had a cup of French press coffee before I bought this coffee maker. I read the instructions, followed them, and anxiously pressed down, then poured the coffee into my cup. The only word I could think of to describe the taste was "smooth". The best coffee I've ever tasted; usually, I have only one cup in the morning, but with this French press, I have to have at least two, it's so good. And it's really a beautiful coffeemaker.Just to let you know, it is also very heavy for this 79-year-old to carry when it is filled with water. No problem, though, when I use two hands.

I Love this French press, it is lovely and works perfectly. It pours nicely, no drips. It is not heavy to lift and keeps the coffee warm for quite a while. I highly recommend it. Now I have to find some posh cups to go with it!

So I am sure there are more functional and higher quality French presses out there compared to this one. I was hesitant to purchase based on pics from other reviews sharing rusty and damaged handles. Mine arrived in great condition. I bought this press based on the elegant shape and handle. I gave it a test run without coffee grounds just hot boiling water, and it did not leak. The press is a bit noisy when you pull the press out and push down. Not terribly loud. I don’t plan on using it every day. I am so happy with it I love how fancy it looks and the price is reasonable. If you want this for an antique fancy press on your counter and an occasional presentation for Sunday morning breakfast this press is it!

I purchased this for easy French press coffee and looked nice for kitchen decor. However after fist use. The coffee pot has a strong Steel smell and wondering if bad for health unless the smell dissipates otherwise it’s going back., I Sent this back!!! Horrible oily smell does not go away!!!

Lovely French coffee press. Enjoyed my super dark roast coffee. No more difficult to clean than any other I've owned. Bought the extra mesh filters. Didn't fit as extra. Kept because eventually might need a main filter. But I think it would take a long time.
