Stainless steel and makes great coffee
This is perfect and beautiful. I love chrome looking appliances so this is perfect. Sent me two or three extra screen filters. There’s no grounds getting thru those babies. Let steep a little longer and have coffee shop strong coffee.

Wonderful
Absolutely love this brewer. I use it to brew loose tea,, it keeps it warm for me to drink whole pot. So functional,, able to clean the filters because it can be taken apart,, spare filters sent too,, I don’t know why they say don’t put in dishwasher since it’s stainless steel. The size is perfect for two large cups of tea and no metal taste. I would order again

Great French press for 2-3 cups of coffee
My wife wanted to get away from plastic coffee machines and coffee pods, so I got this and a cheap kettle. It’s a perfect size for us, but may be too small for entertaining a crowd. The recipe I’ll share makes 2-3 small cups of coffee or fills one mid sized travel mug. I personally like the clean look of stainless steel, but I admit the design is a bit basic.Recipe:42 grams – freshly ground coffee.700 grams – boiling water.1. Pour the hot water over the grounds into the French press.2. Agitate lightly with a big spoon, cover (but don’t press), and set a 4 minute timer.3. Remove lid, gently agitate just the foam on top to free any stuck coffee grounds, and skim the foam out with a spoon.4. Cover (don’t press yet!) and set another timer for 5 minutes.5. Slowly press the plunger and pour gently, trying to avoid agitating.

Great
Very good, I just wish these presses were lighter (near 2 Lbs), but well, it’s metal and the wall is supposed to have thickness

Excellent!
Excellent quality! This press is double walled and has a very sleek and comfortable handle. The filter system fits great and removes easily for cleaning. It is a little more expensive than my last one, but well worth it for the Quality!

Great French Press
I previously had been using a black colored French Press that I found at a local grocery store, and it was great. I later found after a couple cycles in the dishwasher, that the black paint used was not holding up well in washings, so paint was flaking off all over, and some times in my coffee. This was purchased, in Stainless, to prevent that from happening.The press feels solid and very sturdy. The handle and base are very robust, no moving parts here. The lid seems well designed as most do, the filter portion on the bottom threads on. When cleaning, I tend to loosen the filter portion a bit to get grounds out of the filter and metal ring at the bottom, then thread it back snug again. The plunger is smooth and has no snags.Really this is a super basic design and done very well. It looks great, there’s no plastic that I can see, and where I generally have a 20oz cup of coffee every morning, the 34oz option is more than I need, perfect size if I want to make an extra cup for my girlfriend, etc.The small arrow on the front is kinda handy so you don’t really have to look for where to rotate the lid, handy little touch. I noticed that when sealed, the coffee pours out in a controlled stream and doesn’t seem to leak around the sides at all. Much cleaner than my last french press.So far so good!
