Amazon.com Review
Ideal for home or office, this French press coffeemaker doubles as an insulated thermos so coffee stays hot and fresh for up to two hours. The pot holds 34 ounces (1 liter), nearly seven 5-ounce cups, and can be used for brewing tea as well as coffee. It's made of stainless steel polished to a mirror-finish, has a large, comfortable handle, and is dishwasher-safe. The lid seals in heat remarkably well and turns to prevent heat from escaping through the spout between pours. The pot stands 8-1/2 inches high, including the plunger top. --Fred Brack

Pouring is a pain April 17, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I got this because I broke a glass press pot on our granite countertop. This one does not break; that is the good news. My problem with this one is that when I pour, I get perhaps 2/3's of the coffee out. Then it stops or pours out very slowly. I tip it back upright, swirl it around, pour again. I repeat that process several times in order to get most of the coffee out. That, as they say, is a pain. I plan on moving back to the glass beaker form and being a little more careful.

Beauty, functional for every day March 28, 2008
This pot isn't brain surgery - it's just a coffee pot that makes good quick coffee, same way, every time. I use it every day in my studio. It's simple, durable, great style and worth the price.

Very Durable March 6, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful

My press works great, and makes very very good coffee. Coffee cools down much slower than it does in a glass press. Durability and visual appeal is excellent as well. Mine works great, there were no problems with fit or finish. Cleaning the press was easy too. If you don't plan on drinking the pot in a couple of hours, you will have to transfer it to a thermos for a hot cup later.

As good as a press can get. March 3, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful

No press is perfect at keeping coffee hot for hours - but this one gives a valiant attempt. No other press works as well and looks as great as this one. It cleans to a shine everytime and makes great coffee. Pair this with a cheap electric kettle and any dorm room can make the best coffee in the world. And keep it hot while you write a review for amazon... glass presses would have been very cold by now ....

Excelent Product March 2, 2008
I was very excited to find such an attractively styled stainless press available for such a great price. After spending $15 to $30 each on several glass presses, only to have them get broken after only a couple of months, I was extremely ready to try a more durable option. I have not been disapointed in any regard.

This Bodium press brews almost exactly two full cups of coffee, just the right amount at French press strength, and enough two share if brewing for two. While the insulation is not substantial to the extent of a thermos, it certainly does maintain heat much better than a glass or thin metal press would. I find that my second cup of coffee is still a good drinking temperature after as long as two and a half hours. In a glass press, it would certainly not be.

The product is quite durable and well made; simple, elegant, enduring styling that suits any home, and will not age. After several months of daily use, it looks exactly the same as when I bought it - not a dent, blemish or sign of wear. I hand wash it every day after use and it shines up perfectly. I'm sure I will own and enjoy this press for the rest of my coffee drinking days!
